Product Information

Full details

The Phoenix Contact 3001624 Fixed Bridge (FBRN 10-4 N) is an essential accessory for electrical engineers and technicians working with the Clipline complete terminal block system, designed to facilitate efficient, reliable power distribution across ten adjacent terminals. It is ideal for high-density wiring configurations, though users should note that the bridge is specifically engineered for a 4.2mm pitch, making it incompatible with terminal blocks of different spacing requirements.

FAQs

What is the pitch of the 3001624 bridge?

The bridge features a 4.2mm pitch.

How many positions does this fixed bridge provide?

This model provides 10 connection positions.

Is this compatible with non-Phoenix Contact terminal blocks?

This is designed specifically for the Phoenix Contact Clipline complete terminal block system and may not be compatible with other brands.

How many units come in a single pack?

Each pack contains 10 individual 10-position bridges.

Can I cut this bridge to use fewer than 10 positions?

While the bridge can technically be cut, doing so may invalidate the structural integrity or safety certifications; use only with the intended 10-position configuration whenever possible.

What is the weight of each individual bridge?

Each bridge weighs approximately 3.88 grams.

Troubleshooting

Bridge does not seat fully into the terminal shaft

Verify that your terminal blocks are the correct series and that the bridge is aligned with the bridging channel on all ten terminals.

Poor electrical continuity after installation

Check that all terminal block screws are tightened sufficiently. A loose screw will result in a poor connection and increased resistance.

Bridge physical damage during installation

Ensure that the bridge is not being forced into place; if it meets resistance, verify that the terminal blocks are properly aligned on the DIN rail.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Simplifies complex wiring tasks by bridging ten terminals at once
  • High-quality material construction ensures consistent conductivity
  • Compatible with a wide range of Clipline system components
  • Comes in a convenient 10-pack for scalable project needs

Cons

  • Strict 4.2mm pitch requirement limits versatility with non-standard blocks
  • Requires proper tightening of terminal screws for optimal electrical contact
  • Silver finish is susceptible to oxidation if stored in highly humid environments

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install, ensure your Clipline terminal blocks are mounted securely on the DIN rail. Verify that the bridge pitch matches your terminal block series (4.2mm). Insert the 10-position bridge into the designated bridging shaft, ensuring all pins are seated fully. Always tighten terminal screws to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications to prevent loose connections, which can lead to heat generation. For maintenance, keep the terminal area free of dust and debris; if the silver contacts appear dull or oxidized, use a non-abrasive contact cleaner, but ensure the power is disconnected before performing any maintenance.
