Phoenix Contact now also offers the Quickon wall feedthroughs with metric thread, in addition to the PG products. The reason is the new DIN EN 50626 standard covering metric screw connections for cables which went into force at the beginning of the year. The PG dimensions, primarily known in Germany, will now be converted to the metric system.
The wall feedthroughs comprise a cable screw connection and a connection terminal block combined. With the quick connection system, the cores of the round cable no longer need to be stripped of insulation; connection is made without special tools simply by tightening the union nut. Insulation displacement contacts then pierce the insulation of the wire. At the same time, the outer sheath of the cable is strain-relieved and the connection protected against dust and spray water. The connection system saves 60% of the wiring time.
