DP2.5SG sensor/actuator terminal block family

Dinkle International announces the DP2.5SG sensor/actuator terminal block family, providing adaptable cable connectivity options for a variety of automation needs. A modular design based around DP2.5SG terminal blocks—single-level pass-through type mountable on a standard DIN rail—provides flexible installation options for a variety of applications. Additional components are available to add easily recognizable color-coded distribution of positive (red) and negative (blue) power, and ground earth potential (green/yellow) connections as needed. An optional pluggable terminal block is available for even more convenient factory-to-field wiring installation. The resulting assembly provides the advantage of compactly combining all signal connections for sensors and actuators requiring two-wire, three-wire, and four-wire installation, while saving up to 75% of panel space over traditional multi-terminal installations. Contact materials are tin plated copper alloy, using push-in design (PID) for reliable wire terminations over an operating temperature range of -40 to 115°C. Exclusive PID connectivity enables tool-free insertion of solid wires, stranded wires, or ferrules, saving up to 60% of the wiring time compared to screw-based methods. The signal terminal blocks carry a UL rating of 600 V and 20 A, accepting wires ranging from 26 to 12 AWG; power distribution terminal blocks are rated for 300 V and 10 A, with wires ranging from 26 to 14 AWG.
