Terminal Blocks - Accessories - Marker Strips

0804109:0091 Marker Strips is a special type of terminal block accessory, designed to fit with the standard terminal block mounting system. It is used to provide a visible indication of where a particular connection is located on the terminal block. Marker strips will generally be mounted on the end face of the terminal block so that the markings are clearly visible, although in some cases it may be mounted at a slightly different angle.

Marker strips are typically made of polypropylene, and they usually come in two colors, white and blue. The main benefit of using marker strips is that they help to speed up installation time. When a particular connection needs to be located, it is much easier to identify it if the marker strip is present, without having to manually reference the cables. Furthermore, the markings can be customized to further differentiate multiple connections.

The working principle of marker strips is quite simple. The strips are attached to the terminal block through a combination of screws, pins, or clamps. The strips are then marked with numerals, letters, symbols, or combinations thereof. When the terminal block is wired, the connections are easily identified as they are marked on the strips.

Marker strips can also be helpful in reducing the risk of incorrect wiring. It provides an extra layer of accuracy, which is especially important in situations where the correct wiring may not be obvious or where the wrong connections could cause serious damage.

Marker strips are vital components of any terminal block installation and are usually sold alongside the terminal blocks themselves. Although they add some extra cost to the overall installation, they are invaluable when it comes to quick identification and understanding of the wiring scheme. Furthermore, they help to ensure safe and efficient operations and make it easy to identify any errors, resulting in less downtime.
