Insulation displacement technology for quick connections

16 November 2005 Interconnection

The Quickon QTC insulation displacement technology from Phoenix Contact allows time savings of up to 60% with respect to signal and lower-end power wiring applications. Insulated wires are simply inserted directly into a terminal without any prior treatment; contact is established by means of a quarter turn of the screwdriver. By expanding the cross section of the terminals QTC 1,5 in 5 mm pitch with the terminals QTC 2,5 in 6 mm pitch, it is possible to achieve a current-carrying capacity of 24 A.

Terminal blocks for feed-through, three- and four-wire connections as well as function and disconnect terminals are included in the range. Blade isolators and levers, fuse plugs, component plugs or captive insert pieces for use as feed-through terminal blocks can be plugged into the multifunctional disconnect zone. Different types of PE terminals with the same contours, pluggable base terminals and a lever fuse terminal round off the selection of the QTC terminal blocks.

As a result of the embedding with the company's Clipline Complete terminal block system, plug-in bridges, test plugs and large labelling are identical with those of the screw, spring-cage and spiral spring connector technology. The user saves time and enjoys other benefits such as reduced storage needs and the fact that accessories can be combined in any random fashion.
