The new pluggable 4-level routing terminals PT 2.5-4L/1P and …/2P from Phoenix Contact provide universal signal distribution options within compact control systems and plant sections. As a result of the various bridging options within the terminal strip, as well as routing options within the freely configurable four-position connector, compact, three-dimensional signal distributors can be created. On one side the terminals have push-in connection points and on the opposite side they have one or two 4-position slots.
The terminal version with two slots increases the system modularity by an additional signal routing level within the routing connectors that can be individually configured. The modular routing connector accessories enable horizontal, vertical and diagonal signal wiring within a terminal strip. In addition screwless flange covers and the corresponding flange terminals have been developed to fix the routing and field connectors.
