New Weidmuller Terminal Block Provides Two Connection Technologies in One Compact Dual Level Design


RICHMOND, VA (January 30, 2006) - Weidmuller's new hybrid dual level terminal block provides two separate channels that offer two distinct termination technologies in one compact footprint - a timesaving insulation displacement connection (IDC) and the proven screw clamp connection. This unique design provides OEMs a reduction in production labor through the use of the IDC termination, while offering end users the screw clamp connection they are more accustomed to for field terminations.

Weidmuller's hybrid dual level terminal, the IDK 1.5N/ZB, provides the best possible contact safety and reliability. The externally tensioned IDC termination technology and yellow wire guide offer visual indication of a correctly terminated conductor. In addition, wiring times are reduced by as much as 76%, when compared to screw clamp technology, because there is no need to strip or crimp wires before insertion.

With a wire size range of 24 to 16 AWG for the IDC termination, and 26 to 12 AWG for the screw clamp termination, the IDK 1.5N/ZB hybrid terminal is suitable for a wide range of industrial and control applications. It is UL rated at 600V, 10A, and 22 to 16AWG. The overall dimensions are 0.20"W x 3.75"L x 2.08"H (5.1mm X 95.3 mm X 52.8 mm).

Weidmuller is a leading supplier of control and automation connectivity solutions such as Reliable Ethernet Solutions, Power Delivery Solutions, Design-Build-Deliver Solutions, Complete Rail Solutions, switching technology for control panels, printed circuit board terminals and connectors, and terminal blocks. Weidmuller has approximately 3,400 employees worldwide, with 70 sales organizations or offices in more than 60 countries.
