Product Information

Full details

The NVent ERIFLEX Distribution Terminal Block (UDJ-160A) is designed for electrical professionals needing a reliable single-pole power distribution solution. It offers a high current capacity of 160A and accommodates larger conductor sizes up to 70mm² (2/0 AWG), simplifying complex wiring in industrial and commercial applications. A key caveat is its single-pole configuration, requiring multiple units for multi-phase systems.

FAQs

What is the maximum current this terminal block can handle?

The NVent ERIFLEX Distribution Terminal Block has a maximum current rating of 160A.

What conductor sizes can be connected?

Input terminals accommodate 10-70mm² conductors, and output terminals accept 2.5-16mm² conductors.

Can this be used for three-phase power?

This is a single-pole (1-pole) terminal block. For three-phase applications, you would need to use three separate units, one for each phase.

How is this terminal block mounted?

It is designed for mounting on a standard 35mm DIN rail.

What does 'contact safe' mean?

'Contact safe' means the design prevents accidental touching of live electrical contacts, enhancing user safety during installation and maintenance.

What is the voltage rating?

The voltage rating for this terminal block is 1 kV (1000 Volts).

What material is the housing made of?

The housing is made of thermoplastic, providing durability and electrical insulation.

Troubleshooting

Terminal block not making secure connection

Ensure the conductor is fully inserted into the terminal and the screw is tightened to the appropriate torque. Verify the conductor size is within the specified range for the terminal.

Overheating at terminals

Check that the conductor size is appropriate for the terminal's rating and that connections are tight. Ensure the overall current draw does not exceed the 160A limit. Inspect for corrosion or damage.

Difficulty installing on DIN rail

Confirm you are using a standard 35mm DIN rail. Ensure the mounting clip on the back of the terminal block is not obstructed or damaged.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Robust construction with a durable thermoplastic housing.
  • Accommodates a wide range of input and output conductor sizes.
  • Easy and secure DIN rail mounting system.
  • High current rating (160A) for significant power handling.
  • Contact-safe design enhances user safety.

Cons

  • Single-pole design requires multiple units for multi-phase systems.
  • Larger conductor sizes may require specific termination tools.
  • Blue color might not fit all aesthetic requirements without additional housing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the power source is de-energized before installation.
  2. Mount the terminal block securely onto a standard 35mm DIN rail.
  3. Strip the appropriate length of insulation from input and output conductors.
  4. Insert conductors into the designated terminals and tighten the screws firmly using a suitable screwdriver.
  5. For input terminals, ensure the conductor size is within the 10-70mm² range. For output terminals, use conductors between 2.5-16mm².

Compatibility:

  • Compatible with standard 35mm DIN rail mounting systems.
  • Suitable for use with single-phase power distribution.
  • Requires appropriate crimping tools or ferrules for larger conductor sizes if specified by local codes.

Care:

  • Keep the terminal block clean and free from dust and debris.
  • Periodically inspect terminals for tightness and signs of corrosion or overheating.
  • Clean only with a dry cloth. Avoid using liquids or solvents.
