Reduce Wiring Time by 80% Using Lean Screwless Connection System

June 2, 2011 - PRLog -- This system is comprised of two complementary pieces: an insulation displacement connection (IDC) terminal block, and a tool that cuts, strips, and inserts the wire into the connector.  The benefits of using this system are:

•   Time-Saving Installation (80% faster than screw connections)
•   Error-Proof Cutting, Stripping and Insertion of Wires
•   Vibration-and Corrosion-Proof
•   Eliminates Installer Fatigue
•   Side Entry of both Solid or Stranded Conductors
•   Wire Sizes Ranging from 24 AWG to 12AWG
•   Accepts up to Two Identical Wires
•   Current Carrying Capacity up to 25 Amps
•   Voltage Ratings of up to 600
•   Spacing Ranges from 5 to 8 mm
•   Many Functions Available
•   Complete Line of Accessories and Marking Systems

This system mounts on industry standard DIN rails.  It also offers combination connections of both screw clamp and IDC in one terminal block.  In addition to general-purpose IDC terminal blocks, the system is used in Mini Terminal Blocks (Miniblocks for DIN 2) and the ATEX product line.  This system is also used in Railway applications.

The system eliminates the need for individual wire stripping and clamp screw tightening, making this the most lean wiring system on the market today.  The connection system is 80% faster than screw connections, saving installation time and increasing wiring productivity.  Error-proofing of cutting, stripping, and insertion of wires results in a secure, vibration and corrosion-free connection every time.  By leveraging these lean methodologies, waste associated with wiring and repair time can be eliminated from your process.
