Powerful PCB connector carries up to 115 amps

MIDDLETOWN, Pa. – Phoenix Contact introduces the PC 35, a pluggable PCB terminal block that can carry up to 115 amps. The connector has the highest current-carrying capacity on the market.

The PC 35 features standard screw-connection technology and accepts wires up to 2 AWG.  It is UL-rated for field wire termination, which is accomplished with a screwdriver.  Through-panel mount capability increases design flexibility.

The contact design creates low insertion and withdrawal forces.  These light-touch forces reduce mechanical stresses and possible damage to the PCB solder joints.  The silver-plated contacts are highly conductive and provide long-term reliability.

The 600-volt UL and 1000V IEC ratings meet international requirements.  Optional shielding is available for applications that may be exposed to electro-magnetic interference. 

Suitable applications include power electronics, frequency converters, motor connections, solar inverters and drives.

Phoenix Contact is a world leader in electrical connection, electronic interface and industrial automation technologies. Phoenix Contact GmbH & Co. KG, Blomberg, Germany, operates 46 international subsidiaries, including Phoenix Contact USA in Middletown, Pa. Global sales exceed more than 1 billion euro annually.
