With a current-carrying capability of up to 125 A and cable cross-section sections of up to 35 mm², the PC 35 series of PC board connectors from Phoenix Contact has one of the best specifications in the market.
Since the plugging and unplugging forces of these connectors are quite low, the connectors can be connected to devices – even those with high power rating – in a user-friendly manner. The conductor connection is implemented by screwing the tension sleeve tight. The two- to six-pin plug connectors are factory equipped with a screw flange that reliably connects it to the base strip. The screw flange can also be used as a panel feed-through on the base strip side and provides an additional hold within the device.
For pitch sizes of 15 mm, the connectors have received unrestricted 600 V UL approval in compliance with UL1059 (1000 V in accordance with IEC). Using the inverted versions of the IPC 35, shock-protected device outputs as well as free hanging cable-to-cable connections and board-to-board connections are possible. The plug connectors and base strips are also available in a four-pin version with a professional-grade shield connection.
