Spring terminal connector suits transportation use
EAO
Series 04 PIT
EAO is offering a new spring terminal connector technology for the Series 04 switch range, which can be used in transportation, mechanical engineering and process-automation applications.
The Series 04 PIT (push-in terminal), which features a spring terminal connection from Phoenix Contact, is said to reduce assembly times by up to 70 per cent compared with screw terminals.
It offers a more reliable, secure connection in combination with a very high resistance to vibration and the cable connection is accomplished without any tools.
To achieve a secure connection, users need simply push the stripped wire end into the spring terminal, which applies the correct pressure to maintain a secure connection over the lifetime of the switch.
Depending on the application, not even bootlace ends (core-end sleeves) are needed.
PIT offers protection against contact according to IP20.
The EAO Series 04 has been upgraded with the following three products with push-in terminal technology: a snap-action switch element (gold/silver), a slow-make element (gold/silver) and a lamp block.
The elements are stackable, providing the flexibility to use up to six contacts per switch.
The push-in terminals connect to any of the Series 04 actuators, including square and round pushbutton versions, two- or three-position lever switches, key lock switches, emergency stops and large-headed buttons.
Most of these products are available with LED illumination.
Series 04 equipment offers front protection IP65 and is rated 500V AC.
It fits into 22.5mm mounting holes (raised mounting) or 30.5mm round and square cutouts (flush mounting).
The operating temperature is -25 to 55C.
All products comply with international standards, including CE, RoHS, CB - EN/IEC 60947-5-1, UL (pending for PIT), NFF 16-102, CSA, CCC, GOST and German Lloyd.
