3060490

3060490 is a type of specialized terminal blocks, also known as screwless terminals, which have become increasingly popular in applications where High Currents and High Voltages are involved. They allow for an easy, secure and reliable connection of wires, with minimal connection losses and the same high quality which is expected from all modern terminals. The 3060490 terminal block is a special type of terminal block which, due to its special construction, offers higher current and voltage handling capabilities than other terminals and works exceptionally well in switching applications.

The 3060490 terminals provide secure, vibration-resistant connections in a single securing mechanism that doesn’t require any additional hardware. Each terminal is equipped with an insulated barb contact which has a larger contact area and emits heat more effectively. This keeps the terminal in healthy temperatures, preventing potential fire hazards. The terminals also have an internal spring which provides protection against electrical shock and sparks.

The 3060490 terminal also has superior dynamic resistance properties, which ensures that no undue resistance is caused when the terminals are in use. This is especially important when high current devices are connected. The terminal blocks also come with a nickel-plated brass (NPB) finish, which guarantees maximum corrosion and oxidation resistance.

The 3060490 terminal is highly suitable for use in various applications such as industrial controls, variable speed drives, renewable energy sources, lighting fixtures, audio video equipment, and so forth. The contact capacity for these terminals is rated at 8A - 190A, making them ideal for use in many different scenarios. It should be noted, however, that these terminals have limited current and voltage ratings, and should not be used in applications that require more than the given ratings.

The working principle of the 3060490 terminal is quite simple. It consists of a two-terminal contact point and two insulated insert bars on the connection points of the terminal. On each of the bars, there is a metal insert with a coil spring connected directly to the terminal’s contact points. In the event of a power overload, the coil spring will break the circuit, preventing further incidents.

In conclusion, the 3060490 terminal block is a specialized type of terminal block that is ideal for use in high current and high voltage applications. Its unique construction ensures that it offers superior resistance against corrosion and oxidation, as well as strong dynamic resistance properties. It is noteworthy that these terminals should not be used in applications that require a higher current or voltage rating than the one provided.
