November 2, 2011 - Phoenix Contact announces Triple-level UT 2.5-3L terminal blocks. The UT 2.5-3L accepts solid, stranded or ferruled wires with 26-12 AWG. Push-in bridging on each level saves space while distributing power.
Ver-tical bridges electrically connect all three levels to one another. Each terminal point has a large labeling space for easy identification. The UT 2.5-3L series features Phoenix Contact’s Reakdyne screw-clamp design to prevent screws from backing out. Components are manufac-tured from corrosion-resistant copper alloy.
This robust design makes the terminal blocks ideal for mission-critical applications. The UT line of terminal blocks is widely found in energy, oil and gas, water treatment, machine building and other industrial automation systems. UT 2.5-3L terminals have current ratings of 300 V at 20 A or 600 V at 5 A under UL file # E60425. These limited ratings are applicable for use in or with industrial control equipment where the load on any single circuit does not exceed 15 A at 51-150V; 10 A at 151-300V; or 5 A at 301-600 V, or the maximum ampere rating, whichever is less.
The series is part of Phoenix Contact's CLIPLINE Complete system, which features standardized push-in bridging, marking and testing acces-sories for all connection technologies.
