AutomationDirect DINnectors - DIN Rail Mounted Terminal Blocks
DINnectors are simply DIN rail-mounted connectors or terminal blocks. They provide a means of connecting and identifying two or more wires within the demands of an industrial environment. DINnectors can terminate solid or stranded wires ranging from 18-3/0 AWG, and offer fusing, grounding or disconnecting capability within the terminal block itself.

Most control panels use some sort of terminal strips or terminal blocks to connect the control wiring (PLCs, relays, contactors, etc.) to the field wiring. Our customers tell us DINnectors are the same or better quality than the brand they were using, but are significantly less expensive. Our direct/ e-commerce approach allows us to offer DINnectors at half-price values.

Five reasons to try our DINnectors:

* Quality, corrosion resistant materials * Self-locking vibration-resistant clamps * Continuous high-contact pressure for a reliable connection * Low voltage drop means low contact resistance, indicating a stable, quality contact * Gas-tight connections (in accordance with DIN standard 41640, part 76)

DINnectors from a technical viewpoint

DINnectors are simply DIN rail-mounted connectors or terminal blocks. They provide a means of connecting and identifying two or more wires within the demands of an industrial environment. DINnectors can terminate solid or stranded wires ranging from 18-3/0 AWG, and offer fusing, grounding or disconnecting capability within the terminal block itself. Rather than limiting you to a fixed number of terminations, most DINnectors are modular in design, allowing you the freedom to mix as many combinations of types, wire sizes and quantities as can fit on a mounting rail. And, rather than limiting you to proprietary terminal block mounting rails on which only a single manufacturer’s terminals can be utilized, DINnectors mount on the universal DIN rail.

The DIN rail is the internationally approved, industry standard mounting rail for components made by hundreds of manufacturers worldwide. Our range of DINnectors terminal blocks is internationally approved by various national and international standards organizations such as UL, CSA, VDE, SEV, RINA and IEC. The DINnectors line of terminal blocks have reached a price breakthrough level. You can now buy terminal blocks at prices below distributors’ cost.

The DINnectors line includes a wide range of connection products to help you wire your control panels: * Feed-through blocks * Multi-level blocks * 3-tier blocks for high-density and sensor wiring * Ground blocks * Disconnects and fuse blocks * Mini blocks * LED and diode blocks * Three different types of DIN rails: 35 mm slotted, 35 mm slotted high (deep-dish), 15 mm slotted, and angled support brackets for easy wiring access * Insulated ferrules, ring and fork terminals, butt and end connectors
