5-141-Y

Barrier Blocks

Barrier Blocks provide effective and secure isolation of circuits. 5-141-Y Barrier Blocks are designed for distribution and connection of circuits with up to 17.5A and 600V ratings. These blocks are equipped with a multi-level physical retention system that ensures reliable connection and disconnection.

Application Field

The 5-141-Y Barrier Blocks are designed as a secure terminal block solution for any type of industrial conditions. This block is available with both horizontal and vertical entry, and is ideal for a range of applications such as equipment control, street lighting, power conditioning, and process control.

Working and Principle

The 5-141-Y Barrier Block provides a low insertion force with a positioning pin for reliable and repeatable connection and disconnection. It is designed with contact bridges that interlock so the contacts are protected against vibration and shock. It also features excellent insulation properties and is resistant to UV radiation, extreme temperatures, and harsh chemical conditions. The locking mechanism ensures that the contacts stay in place during operation, and the check-point spring ensures reliable contact pressure.

The contact block offers a maximum voltage rating of 600V and a contact current rating of 17.5A. The contact is designed with a positive contact displacement, which reduces the risk of arcing and eliminates the risk of electrical shorting.
