GFTSX-17

Terminal Blocks - Barrier Blocks are a type of electrical connection used in many industrial processes. GFTSX-17 is a particular type of Terminal Block - Barrier Block that is particularly suited to a range of applications and processes.

The GFTSX-17 is a six-pole Terminal Block-Barrier Block capable of accommodating 5mm2 max cable size. It is rated to 690V/50A and provides terminals with up to a 2.5mm2 capacity. It is designed for applications requiring maximum current transfer and comes in six standard colours to allow easy wiring identification.

The GFTSX-17 is made from polyphenylene sulphide and reinforced glass fibre. The housing is resistant to heat and tough enough to withstand high shocks and vibration. It is also designed with a self-insulation material for protection against accidental contact and dust-proofing.

The design of the GFTSX-17 incorporates a strain relief that enables easy installation and a smooth wiring process. It has an intuitive snap-in system allowing for easy mounting and has a ‘touch-safe’ feature so as not to generate arcs when making contact with electrical lines. This makes it both safer and quicker to install, greatly reducing the time taken to complete a wiring job. It also eliminates the need for additional insulation measures to be taken, ensuring a secure connection at all times.

The GFTSX-17 has a working principle built around a block of barriers. These barriers are configured to block the current from travelling from one terminal to another while still allowing the current to flow from one side of the block to the other. This means that multiple sets of terminals can be connected together in a safe and efficient manner. The blocks also have an additional function that allows for increased user flexibility. The Smart Connect System allows users to connect and disconnect several terminals with the use of a single action.

In summary, the GFTSX-17 provides a secure, dependable and easy to install Terminal Block-Barrier Block solution that is rated to 690V/50A. The unique design of the barrier blocks allows for increased user flexibility and safety. It is designed to withstand harsh environmental conditions and is ideal for applications demanding a secure and reliable connection.
