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

The Phoenix Contact PTFIX 6/18X2,5-NS35 BN is a professional-grade distribution block engineered for streamlined wire management within control cabinets. This compact terminal block facilitates efficient power distribution and signal routing, featuring a robust design that supports reliable electrical connections in demanding industrial automation environments. Its integrated mounting system allows for secure installation on standard DIN rails, providing a space-efficient solution for complex wiring configurations.

Advantages

This distribution block significantly reduces installation time by up to 80% due to its ready-to-mount configuration, eliminating the need for manual bridging. The integrated Push-in direct connection technology enables tool-free conductor insertion, ensuring fast and secure terminations. Its compact design allows for up to 50% space savings on the DIN rail when mounted transversely, while the brown color variant assists in clear circuit identification and organized wiring layouts.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation and control cabinet wiring
• Power distribution systems
• Applications requiring high-density connection points
• Projects where rapid installation and space optimization are critical

This block may not be suitable for applications requiring wire gauges larger than 4 mm² or for environments where the nominal voltage exceeds 690 V. It is also not intended for use in high-vibration environments without proper assessment of the mounting surface and DIN rail stability.

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 26 - 12)
• Mounting type: NS 35/7,5 and NS 35/15 DIN rail
• Dimensions: 28.6 mm width, 58.1 mm depth
• Color: Brown

How to use

To use the distribution block, snap it onto a compatible NS 35 DIN rail. Insert stripped conductors directly into the Push-in connection points without the need for tools. If additional capacity is required, the blocks can be interconnected using plug-in bridges inserted into the conductor shaft. Ensure that the total current does not exceed the rated 24 A and that all wires are securely seated within the terminals.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the wire cross-section falls within the 0.14 mm² to 4 mm² range
• Ensure the DIN rail type matches the NS 35 standard
• Confirm that the total current load of the circuit is compatible with the 24 A rating
• Check if the brown color aligns with your specific circuit identification requirements

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and safety, always ensure that conductors are stripped to the appropriate length before insertion. When bridging multiple blocks, use only compatible plug-in accessories to maintain the integrity of the electrical connection.
