February 1, 2012 - Phoenix Contact announces Inverted IPC 35 PCB terminal blocks. The IPC 35 plugs and headers add touch-proof PCB connections. The inverted IPC 35 connectors can carry currents up to 115 Ampere (UL) and cable sizes of up to 2 AWG, the highest specifications currently available.
The IPC 35 series offers PCB-to-PCB and wire-to-wire connections. It is ideal for applications that need to take power from the PCB. The plug connectors and headers are also available in a four-pin version with an EMC-grade shield connection.
The insertion and withdrawal forces of the connectors are very low, considering the high power rating. This provides a user-friendly interface. The conductor connection is made by tightening the tension sleeve with a common screwdriver. The two- to six-pin plug connectors are equipped with screw flanges that reliably latch it to the header. The screw flange can also be used as a panel feed-through on the header side, providing additional stability within the device.
With centerline spacing of 15 mm, the connectors have received an unrestricted 600 V UL rating in compliance with UL1059. The IPC 35 series can be used in power electronics, frequency converters, motor connections, solar inverters and electric vehicle charging stations.
