Material properties
The patented contact metals of the QT...
fast connection terminal blocks are made
from a special, high-grade copper alloy. This
combines good electrical conductivity with
excellent elastic characteristics.
The surface of the metal parts is
protected by lead-free, galvanic nickel or tin
plating.
The insulating housing of the fast
connection terminal blocks is made from
recyclable PA6.6. This elastic plastic with
high impact strength is halogen-free and UV
resistant. Further characteristics include the
good tropical and termite resistance, high
chemical resistance, and excellent aging
characteristics. Polyamide 6.6 can be used
with operating temperatures up to
130°Cand is certified for inflammability
class V0 according to UL94.
Connection principle
QT QUICKON terminal blocks are
designed for fast conductor connection.
There is no need to strip or implement
splicing protection; the cables simply need
to be cut to length for contact to be made
in a matter of seconds.
An important characteristic is the space-
saving twist connection. Due to the
simplicity of the connection, the wiring time
is reduced by up to 60 percent.
A standard screwdriver is used to operate
the terminal blocks and the switching states
are clearly signaled by engagement points in
the start and end position.
Solid and stranded conductors from
0.25 to 2.5mm can be wired without aids
such as guide ferrules.
When a conductor is connected, the
conductor insulation is cut open, displaced,
and the conductor is securely engaged in
the end position where it makes extensive,
gas-tight contact.
The high quality of the QUICKON fast
connection is verified by the fact that this
connection is certified according to the
standard for Exe applications, as are the
screw and spring connections.
