CT-45

Terminal blocks, also known as barrier blocks, are used on electrical circuit boards to allow for easier and less permanent connection of electrical wires. Used for various purposes, including connecting power sources and individual signal wires to circuits, barrier block terminal blocks provide a certain level of electrical connectivity without the permanence of soldering or welding. One of the most popular terminal blocks manufactured today is the CT-45, which features a modular design and mechanical and electrical connections.

The CT-45 terminal block offers a robust connection system with a secure fool-proof wiring design. It is made from a combination of PBT or polymide material, with an insulator made of UF6 or Polyphenylene sulfide material. The connection between the wire and the contact is accomplished using the pressure-plate connection method.

The CT-45 also utilizes two different types of our screw systems. The standard effective one is the fast-acting reverse-mounted screw, with variations featuring different screw sizes and solutions. The second special design allows for the insulation removal of wires on the barrier block, making it easier to connect wires without having to strip them. The Metric Screw System and Option 31 are the two techniques widely used for this purpose.

The connection technology in the CT-45 ensures an automatic electrical connection between two parts-the wire and the contact-once the wire is pushed into the contact slots. The integrated strain relief element also adds to the secure connection of the wire. Furthermore, the whole terminal block is covered with a corrosion-resistant finish with each part individually insulated so that individual wires require less insulation, thus delivering maximum safety standards.

The CT-45 terminal block also allows a lot of versatility when it comes to connection. For instance, depending on the type of terminal block chosen, the end user can connect one or two wires to the same contact. This creates more possibilities for customization based on the particular application. The CT-45 can also be used with a wide variety of wire-gauge sizes ranging from 0.03-3.5 mm².

Furthermore, the CT-45 terminal block has a low-profile design with no protruding guide all around the edge. This makes it suitable for use in applications with tight spaces and harsh environments, where there is less chance of damage caused by the guide tending to catch on the surrounding items. It is also sold with housing, making it easier and cheaper to integrate.

Overall, the CT-45 is an exceptionally user friendly and flexible terminal block assembly, offering both mechanical and electrical connections. It is perfect for simple and complex projects, no matter the size or scope. Due to its excellent versatility and dependability, it is one of the most popular terminal blocks on the market today.
