Industrial Applications

1. Industrial Control Panel Wiring for Compact Machines

This distribution block streamlines power distribution within compact industrial control panels for machines like packaging equipment or small robotics.

Problem Solved

The Push-in connection technology (tool-free, 0.2-6mm² wire range) drastically reduces wiring time and complexity, crucial for high-volume manufacturing. Its compact dimensions (55.4mm W, 28.6mm H, 21.7mm D) and DIN rail mounting maximize space utilization in crowded enclosures. The 18 connections provide ample distribution points for various machine loads.
