6PCV-16-008

Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks

6PCV-16-008 is a type of terminal block that is mainly used for power distribution and electronic control systems. The terminal block has its origin in the barrier block technology. It is designed for plugging or overlapping the jumper bars used in the power distribution and electronic control systems.

The main application field of 6PCV-16-008 terminal block is in low voltage power distribution and control systems. Its application range covers all aspects from low current signal processing to high current power distribution. The terminal block provides secure and reliable connections for the electrical control circuits and low voltage power systems. The rated voltage of the 6PCV-16-008 terminal block is 250V AC/DC, and the current is 12A.

Working Principle

The 6PCV-16-008 terminal block is constructed out of two different parts, an insulated plastic body and a metallic base. The base includes a tongue-and-groove mechanism which is used to fasten the terminal block with the barrier. The plastic body and base are joined together by means of a locking clip. The locking clip keeps the terminal block securely connected to the barrier block. The main advantage of this design is that the terminal blocks are highly resistant to movement, vibration, and shock.

In order to make a connection with the 6PCV-16-008 terminal block, you need to insert the wire into the space between the plastic body and metallic base. The wire will be held securely in place by the tongue-and-groove mechanism on the base. The next step is to insert a jumper bar or a conductor into the terminal block. The jumper bar will be inserted into the same space on the base as the wire.Once the jumper bar is inserted, the terminal block is closed by clipping the plastic body and base together. This will create a secure connection and provide the required current transfer. The terminal block is suitable for both AC and DC power applications and is highly reliable in operation.

The 6PCV-16-008 terminal block is a reliable and efficient way of making power distribution and control system connections. It allows multiple wires and jumpers to be joined efficiently and its robust construction means that it is able to cope with continuous vibration and harsh environmental conditions. With its user-friendly installation and secure connections, the terminal block is a great choice for any power distribution or control system application.
