Product Information

Full details

This 12-pole terminal strip from Weidmüller is designed for professionals in industrial electrical installations needing secure and efficient wire termination. Its key benefit is providing a reliable 400V connection for up to 4mm² wires, suitable for bottom mounting in housings. A potential caveat is its specific application focus, making it ideal for direct integration rather than general-purpose use.

Troubleshooting

Terminal strip not mounting securely.

Ensure the housing's mounting surface is flat and clean. Verify that the correct screws are being used for the housing's mounting holes. Check for any obstructions.

Wire connection feels loose.

Ensure the wire is stripped to the correct length and inserted fully into the terminal. Tighten the screw terminal firmly using an appropriate screwdriver. Verify the wire gauge is within the 22-12 AWG range.

Overheating at a terminal.

Check if the wire gauge is appropriate for the 32A rating. Ensure the screw terminal is tightened securely. A loose connection is a common cause of overheating. If the issue persists with a proper connection, the load may exceed the strip's capacity.

Visible damage to the strip.

Inspect the strip for cracks or breaks. If damaged, replace the terminal strip to ensure electrical safety. Do not attempt to repair a physically damaged component.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the mounting surface on the housing is clean and flat.
  2. Align the terminal strip with the designated mounting points on the bottom of the housing.
  3. Secure the strip using appropriate screws (not included) that match the housing's mounting holes.
  4. Insert wires into the terminal openings, ensuring the correct gauge (22-12 AWG) is used.
  5. Tighten the screw terminals firmly with a suitable screwdriver to secure each wire.

Compatibility:

  • Primarily designed for direct bottom mounting in electrical enclosures and control cabinets.
  • Compatible with wire sizes ranging from 22 AWG to 12 AWG.
  • Suitable for systems operating up to 400V and 32A.

Care:

  • Keep the terminal strip clean and free from dust and debris. Use a dry or slightly damp cloth for cleaning; avoid abrasive materials or solvents.
  • Periodically check screw terminal tightness to ensure secure connections, especially in environments with vibration.
  • Ensure operating temperatures remain within the specified range of -60°C to 130°C.
