Phoenix Contact has introduced the PC 35 series of PC board connectors with a current carrying capability up to 125 A and cable cross-section sections of up to 35 square millimetres.
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.
