Phoenix Contact 1047455 Distribution Block PTFIX 4/18X1,5-NS35 Blue

The Phoenix Contact PTFIX 4/18X1,5-NS35 distribution block is a professional-grade component engineered for streamlined electrical power distribution and signal management in industrial environments. Designed for efficiency, this blue terminal block allows for organized wiring within control cabinets and modular electrical systems, ensuring a secure and reliable connection point for various circuits.

Advantages

This distribution block utilizes advanced push-in connection technology, which significantly reduces installation time by allowing for tool-free conductor insertion. The compact design optimizes space within control panels, while the standardized DIN rail mounting ensures compatibility with common industrial infrastructure. The high-quality construction provides long-term durability and consistent electrical performance, even in demanding operational conditions.

Suitable for

• Industrial control panels
• Modular electrical distribution systems
• Automation and control cabinet wiring
• Power supply distribution

This product may not be suitable for applications requiring high-power distribution exceeding 17.5 A or for environments where the conductor cross-section exceeds 2.5 mm². It is also not intended for direct outdoor exposure without a protective enclosure.

Key specifications

• Nominal voltage: 500 V
• Nominal current: 17.5 A
• Connection method: Push-in connection
• Number of connections: 19
• Cross section: 0.14 mm² to 2.5 mm²
• AWG range: 26 to 14
• Width: 21.6 mm
• Mounting type: NS 35/7,5 and NS 35/15 DIN rail
• Color: Blue

To use the distribution block, snap the unit onto a standard NS 35 DIN rail. Strip the insulation from your conductors according to the specified cross-section requirements and insert them directly into the push-in terminals until they are firmly seated. The push-in mechanism ensures a gas-tight, vibration-resistant connection without the need for manual screw tightening.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the total current load does not exceed the 17.5 A limit.
• Verify that your conductor cross-section falls within the 0.14 mm² to 2.5 mm² range.
• Confirm that your mounting space accommodates the 21.6 mm width of the block.
• Check that your DIN rail system is compatible with NS 35 standards.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure that the power is disconnected before performing any wiring tasks. Use appropriate wire stripping tools to prevent damage to the conductor strands, and verify that each connection is fully seated to maintain electrical integrity.
