Phoenix Contact PTFIX 6/6X2,5-NS35 VT Distribution Block

The Phoenix Contact PTFIX 6/6X2,5-NS35 VT is a professional distribution block engineered for streamlined power distribution within control cabinets. This compact terminal block utilizes an advanced push-in connection system, which facilitates rapid and secure wiring without the need for specialized tools. Designed for versatility, it supports mounting on standard NS 35 DIN rails, making it an ideal component for industrial automation and complex electrical installations where space and efficiency are critical.

Advantages

This distribution block offers significant time savings of up to 80% during installation because it arrives as a ready-to-mount unit, eliminating the need for manual bridging. The integrated push-in direct connection technology allows for tool-free conductor insertion, which increases productivity and ensures consistent contact quality. Furthermore, the block supports flexible installation methods, including DIN rail, direct, or adhesive mounting, and provides up to 50% space savings on the DIN rail through its efficient transverse mounting design. The violet color coding helps maintain clear and organized wiring layouts in dense cabinet environments.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation control panels
• Electrical distribution systems
• Modular machine building
• Control cabinet wiring

This product may not be suitable for applications requiring high-current power distribution exceeding 24 A or for environments where the conductor cross-section exceeds 4 mm². It is also not intended for use in high-vibration environments without proper strain relief or in outdoor settings without an appropriate protective enclosure.

Key specifications

• Nominal voltage: 690 V
• Nominal current: 24 A
• Connection method: Push-in connection
• Number of connections: 7
• Cross-section range: 0.14 mm² to 4 mm² (AWG 26 - 12)
• Mounting type: NS 35/7,5 and NS 35/15 DIN rails
• Dimensions: 28.6 mm width, 58.1 mm depth
• Color: Violet

To use the distribution block, snap it onto the standard NS 35 DIN rail until it clicks into place. Strip the insulation from your conductors according to the specified cross-section requirements and insert them directly into the push-in terminals. The internal spring mechanism automatically secures the wire, ensuring a reliable electrical connection. If additional capacity is required, the blocks can be interconnected using compatible plug-in bridges via the integrated conductor shaft.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure the total current load does not exceed the 24 A rating
• Verify that your conductor cross-section falls within the 0.14 mm² to 4 mm² range
• Check available space in the control cabinet for the 28.6 mm wide unit
• Confirm compatibility with NS 35 DIN rail standards

Usage recommendations: For optimal performance and safety, ensure that all conductors are stripped to the correct length before insertion. Use only compatible plug-in bridges for interconnecting blocks to maintain the integrity of the electrical system.
