Terminal connector (straight, screw) Comap 18 JEVCO model 8503077

Comap 18 JEVCO straight screw terminal connector provides a compact and robust solution for creating screw-secured electrical connections. Designed for reliable clamping and conductive contact, this straight terminal is intended for use where stable mechanical fixation and good electrical continuity are required. Its straightforward screw mechanism offers predictable torque behavior and ease of installation in electrical cabinets, distribution boards and actuator wiring.

Advantages

The straight screw terminal connector offers a firm screw clamp that maintains conductor contact under vibration and thermal cycling. Its compact form factor saves space on DIN rails and terminal blocks, while the screw fastening enables simple wire insertion and secure tightening with standard tools. The terminal's construction supports repeated connections and disconnections without significant loss of clamping performance.

Suitable for

• Control panel wiring and junction points
• Distribution board terminations
• HVAC actuator and valve control wiring
• Signal and low-voltage power connections in industrial equipment

Key specifications

• Connection type: straight screw clamp
• Contact method: mechanical screw tightening for conductor retention
• Form factor: compact inline terminal suitable for panel mounting
• Suitable conductor types: solid and stranded wires (use appropriate ferrules where recommended)
• Reusability: designed for multiple mating cycles with maintained clamping force

How to use

Strip the conductor to the recommended insulation length, insert the bare conductor into the terminal bore and tighten the screw to the specified torque using a compatible screwdriver or torque driver. Ensure the conductor is fully seated and the screw is tightened evenly to achieve secure electrical contact. For stranded conductors, use crimp ferrules if required by the installation practice to prevent strand splaying and ensure consistent clamping. Inspect the connection visually and if possible verify continuity with a multimeter after installation.

Usage recommendations

Follow applicable electrical standards and local regulations when installing the terminal connector. Use the correct wire cross-section and recommended torque values to avoid under- or over-tightening. Periodically inspect connections in vibration-prone or thermal-cycling environments to confirm continued mechanical integrity and electrical continuity.
