Phoenix Contact Push-in PTTB 2,5-ILA 100 current indicator terminal block

The Phoenix Contact PTTB 2,5-ILA 100 current indicator terminal block features Push-in Connection Technology, which allows direct plug-in capability. Whether working with solid conductors or conductors with ferrules, technicians can connect directly to the terminal point without any fuss. 

The technician simply aligns and inserts the wire into the marked terminal points. The low insertion forces of the push-in connection terminal block enable the conductors to be inserted easily and directly, and tool-free.

The current indicator terminal block detects interruptions or line breaks during operation to ensure good performance. The voltage drop is evaluated at a Zener diode in reverse direction and is indicated by a LED so that the technician can see the operating status of the system.

The device also features a printed circuit diagram for clear identification to help minimise faulty wiring and ensure performance.

The shock- and vibration-resistant device has been subjected to tests which go beyond the basic standard. The unit is suitable for use in a range of industries including energy technology, systems manufacturing and machine building, process technology and process engineering, chemical and petrochemical, rail and shipbuilding.
