432613-18-0

Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks

432613-18-0 is one of the most widely used terminal blocks, primarily found in technology-related industries such as commercial electronics, industrial automation, oil and gas, and aerospace. The 432613-18-0 is a barrier block designed to separate power and control circuits, minimizing interference and hazards.

Application Field

432613-18-0 Barrier Blocks are primarily used to separate high-voltage and low-voltage wiring. By connecting the ground wire with the busbar, the ground will have the shortest route and no interference will be caused once the power is switched on. In high-power and high-voltage systems such as in industrial automation, oil and gas, and aerospace, there may be multiple circuits sharing the same busbar and the barrier blocks will be used to connect and separate all of them. This ensures that no interference occurs and the power supply remains safe. It also makes the task of adjusting and connecting different circuits easier and faster.

Apart from separating the circuits, 432613-18-0 Barrier Blocks also help in preventing the flow of surge currents that might damage electrical equipment. In other words, they act as a second layer of protection from the external environment.

Working Principle

As mentioned above, the main purpose of the 432613-18-0 Barrier Blocks is to separate high-voltage and low-voltage wiring. This is done through five core components – the contactor, the protective sleeve, the terminal block body, and the insulation cover. The contactor is essentially the connection point between the terminal block body and the wires. The contactor is secured inside the protective sleeve, which is designed to prevent any contact with the wiring outside of the block. The terminal block body ensures a secure connection between the wires and the contactor while the insulation cover provides additional insulation.

The key component of the 432613-18-0 Barrier Block is the protective sleeve. This part is made of a material with high insulation resistance and is designed to prevent the direct contact of the wires. This is important to prevent any shock risk and also eliminates the risk of interference between the circuits. The protective sleeve also makes it easy to connect multiple circuits to the block.

The 432613-18-0 Barrier Block is a flexible solution that can easily be adapted to a wide range of applications. By connecting the ground wire with the busbar, the ground will have the shortest route and no interference will be caused once the power is switched on. This makes it ideal for industrial applications where safety is of paramount importance.
