Eurostrips
feature tubular screw clamps, wire protectors, and are ready for
immediate wire hookup. Eurostrips are ideal in small spaces, which
means more room for other components or reduced enclosure size. Free
float or mount them onto any panel. They are available in easy-to-cut
12-pole strips or pre-cut.
Feed-Through
Eurostrips are supplied with wire protectors. Offered with flat bases
or standoff feet, they are molded of self-extinguishing polyamide.
Custom imprinting and marking plates are available.
Easy Mounting Saves Installation Time
Eurostrips are mounted quickly in panels. Use standard screws or
mounting pins, offered as accessories in this section, or leave them
free floating to completely eliminate mounting.
Easy Connection Saves Money
What could be easier? Simply strip the wire insulation, insert the wire
and tighten the screw to achieve a gas-tight, electrically efficient
connection every time. Wire lugs are eliminated, saving material cost
and installation time.
Easy Modification Reduces Inventory
Offered in easy to cut 12 pole strips, they can also be ordered precut
with the required number of poles. Polyamide housing can be cut with a
utility knife or hacksaw, providing flexibility to meet changing needs.
Because standard 12 pole strips can be so easily cut to the required
number of poles, stocking is simplified and inventory is minimized.
Reliable Connection Every Time
The basis for the Eurostrip's reliable connection is a precision
machined tubular screw clamp insert made from highly conductive copper
alloy which is nickel plated for maximum corrosion resistance. The
clamping screw material is high strength steel to prevent screw head
breakage or thread damage. This provides trouble free operation. Screws
are electrogalvanized and bluechromated to provide corrosion
resistance. Optional nickel plated brass screws may be ordered for
highly corrosive environments or marine applications.
Standard
Eurostrips feature stainless steel wire protectors. Unlike wire
protectors found in many competitive products which use copper alloy
materials, stainless steel has superior memory characteristics.
Accordingly, the wire protector will return to its original position
even after repeated use. This means trouble-free wire insertion and
quicker reconnections.
Housings
Eurostrip housings are injection molded from self-extinguishing
polyamide 6.6 molding material, possessing high dielectric strength and
excellent electrical insulation and temperature resistance. Each
housing has been specially designed to provide creepage and clearance
distances to achieve ratings up to 600V. Choose low profile, flat base
housings for minimum clearance applications (300V) or housings with
mounting feet for maximum voltage isolation (600V).
Accessories
External jumpers bus potentials between poles on Eurostrips,
eliminating wire jumpers and reducing wiring time. Isolation partition
increases clearance between adjacent poles and provides visual
separation for more efficient wiring. Mounting pins simplify
installation and mounting of Eurostrips. Simply drill the mounting
hole, position and install the pin from underneath the panel. When
correct position is reached, pin will retain terminal to panel.
Identify
circuits and reduce wiring mistakes with marking plates. Order plates
imprinted or blank. Position under or on top of a Eurostrip housing.
Imprinting
Eurostrips reduces wiring errors and helps to identify circuits. Use
Imprinting to mark individual poles when high quantities are involved
or custom imprints are required.
