Phoenix Contact PTFIX 6/18X2,5-NS35 YE Distribution Block

The Phoenix Contact PTFIX 6/18X2,5-NS35 YE is a professional electrical distribution block engineered for efficient power distribution within control cabinets. This compact component facilitates reliable wire connections for demanding industrial applications, ensuring that electrical installations remain organized and secure. Designed for mounting on standard NS35 DIN rails, this distribution block integrates seamlessly into various automation and control systems, providing a robust solution for modern electrical infrastructure.

Advantages

This distribution block offers significant efficiency gains by utilizing ready-to-mount blocks that eliminate the need for manual bridging, resulting in time savings of up to 80 percent. The integrated Push-in direct connection technology allows for tool-free conductor installation, which further accelerates the assembly process. Its compact design enables space savings of up to 50 percent on the DIN rail through transverse mounting. Furthermore, the yellow color coding assists in maintaining clear and identifiable wiring, while the flexible mounting options allow for installation via DIN rail, direct mounting, or adhesive methods.

Suitable for

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

This distribution block may not be suitable for applications requiring wire cross-sections larger than 4 mm² or for environments where the nominal voltage exceeds 690 V. It is also not intended for high-current applications exceeding 24 A per block.

Key specifications

• Nominal voltage: 690 V
• Nominal current: 24 A
• Connection method: Push-in connection
• Number of connections: 19
• Cross-section range: 0.14 mm² to 4 mm²
• AWG range: 26 to 12
• Mounting type: NS 35/7.5, NS 35/15 DIN rail
• Width: 28.6 mm
• Depth: 58.1 mm
• Color: Yellow

How to use

To use the distribution block, snap it onto a standard NS35 DIN rail. Insert the stripped conductors directly into the Push-in connection points without the need for tools. If additional capacity is required, the blocks can be bridged with one another via the conductor shaft using compatible plug-in bridges. Ensure that the wire cross-section is within the specified range of 0.14 mm² to 4 mm² for a secure and reliable connection.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the 24 A current rating is sufficient for your specific circuit requirements.
• Ensure the DIN rail type in your cabinet is compatible with NS 35/7.5 or NS 35/15 standards.
• Check that the wire gauges used in your project fall within the 26-12 AWG range.
• Confirm that the yellow color coding aligns with your internal wiring identification standards.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and safety, always ensure that conductors are stripped to the correct length before insertion. Regularly inspect connections in high-vibration environments to maintain system integrity.
