FIX blocks with Push-in Technology

The ready-to-use and maintenance-free FIX blocks with Push-in connection technology enable quick and easy mounting in confined spaces. The FIX block system consists of distribution blocks, function distribution blocks, and device terminal blocks. In addition, the system is compatible with the standardized accessories of the CLIPLINE complete terminal block system.

PTFIX distribution blocks in various colors

PTFIX distribution blocks

PTFIX distribution blocks

The PTFIX distribution blocks are characterized by the frontal Push-in connection. The blocks have integrated bridging, which means that each block carries a single potential. The PTFIX blocks are available with 4, 6, 12, and 18 terminal points and as single blocks with two terminal points. The distribution blocks are available with or without additional feed-in. Regarding the nominal cross-section, you can choose between 1.5, 2.5, and 4 mm². In addition, distribution blocks with a nominal cross-section of 10 mm² are available. With 15 different color versions available (10 mm² = five color versions), the variety of colors ensures the easy color-coded assignment of conductors and terminal points.

PTVFIX distribution blocks with lateral conductor connection

PTVFIX distribution and collection blocks

PTVFIX distribution blocks

Compared to the PTFIX blocks, the main distinguishing feature of the PTVFIX distribution blocks is their lateral conductor connection. Lateral Push-in connection is indicated by the letter “V” in the name, which stands for “Vertical”. The PTVFIX distribution blocks are available as distribution blocks and collection blocks with a cross-section of 2.5 mm² with 2, 6, 12, and 18 terminal points. The distribution blocks are available in five standard colors. With integration into the online configurator, you can order additional color versions. The PTVFIX blocks therefore also enable the clear color-coded assignment of terminal points and conductors.

PTFIX distribution blocks with Ex approval

Distribution blocks with functional features

The PTFIX-function function distribution blocks enable the easy integration of function elements such as disconnect elements, fuses, or components. The blocks have integrated bridging and are available with seven terminal points and a nominal cross-section of 2.5 mm².

SI fuse blocks

The SI fuse blocks have screw-in fuses rather than disconnect elements. These screw-in fuses enable simple protection for the individual distribution connections. If tripped, the fuses can be quickly and easily replaced. Along with the standard versions, blocks with signal lights are also available for signaling defective fuses.

TG function distribution block

The TG disconnect base blocks are equipped with a standardized disconnect zone. The disconnect zone enables the integration of isolating plugs, fuse plugs, or component connectors. This allows the blocks to be used in a highly individual way. Use the blocks to separate or protect signals or to implement diodes or LEDs. The various function plugs are listed in the accessories for the respective item.

MT function distribution block

The MT knife-disconnect version is a disconnect block with integrated knife disconnection. Instead of the universal disconnect zones, this block has permanently integrated disconnect knives that can be swiveled. The disconnect knives of the MT version are particularly space-saving and remain captive. The disconnect knives, which can be swiveled, can only be opened with a screwdriver. This ensures a high level of safety, as a deliberate action is required to open the disconnect knives.

MTL function distribution blocks

Like the MT versions, the MTL blocks are a basic disconnect block with permanently integrated disconnect knives. What distinguishes the two versions is that the disconnect knives of the MTL version have a lever. This lever allows the user to operate the disconnect knives without using any tools. However, the MTL version requires more space above the block for this.

PTVFIX multi-blocks mounted on a DIN rail

PTVFIX multi-blocks

PTVFIX device terminal blocks

The PTVFIX device terminal blocks carry one potential per two connection points, making the device terminal blocks the first FIX blocks to carry more than just one potential. This feature enables phase(s), neutral conductors, and protective conductors to be wired in just one space-saving block, making the PTVFIX device terminal blocks ideal for use in building installation.
Like the other blocks in the FIX family, the device terminal blocks use the standardized accessories of the CLIPLINE complete system. You can thus also benefit here from various mounting adapters, an online configurator, as well as standardized testing and marking accessories. The blocks are initially available with a nominal cross-section of 2.5 mm².

Device terminal block with connected conductors and marking

G and GE device terminal blocks

G and GE device terminal blocks

The G and GE device terminal blocks use universal screw connection technology. The screw connection is maintenance-free due to the patented Reakdyn principle and enables simple multi-conductor connection. The device terminal blocks carry one potential per two connection points. The GE 10/2-BA BU block is the exception.
The device terminal blocks are available in nominal cross-sections of 4, 10, and 35 mm². Depending on the cross-section, the block versions have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 12 positions. The device terminal blocks can only be attached by direct mounting via screw connection.

Use the compact distribution blocks for cost-effective load and control current distribution
FIX distribution blocks
The ready-to-connect blocks enable fast mounting without manual bridging, yielding time savings of up to 80%. Distribution and power blocks with 4, 6, 12, and 18 terminal points as well as single blocks with 2 terminal points are available in several colors for intuitive and safe installation.

Mounting accessories for the FIX distribution blocks and device terminal blocks

The distribution blocks and device terminal blocks in the FIX family can be integrated into your solution in several ways using various mounting adapters and block versions. Use the various adapters and fix the blocks either on the DIN rail or directly on the mounting panel via a flange. Adhesive versions are available for quick and easy mounting.

DIN rail adapter for horizontal mounting of the distribution blocks on the DIN rail
DIN rail adapter for vertical mounting of the distribution blocks on the DIN rail
Snap-on flanges for direct mounting of the distribution blocks
Distribution blocks with adhesive pad for adhesive mounting
Double DIN rail adapter
Distribution blocks with securing pin adapter
DIN rail adapter for horizontal mounting of the distribution blocks on the DIN rail

The horizontal DIN rail adapters are available for NS 15 and NS 35 DIN rails. To mount, attach the FIX block to the corresponding adapter feet. The block can then be snapped onto the DIN rail very easily. We recommend using two snap-on feet for each stand-alone block. This number can be reduced for solutions that combine several blocks. The corresponding mounting adapter is listed in the accessories for the respective blocks. Distribution blocks are also available including adapters.

DIN rail adapter for vertical mounting of the distribution blocks on the DIN rail

The vertical DIN rail adapter can be mounted on NS 35 and NS 15 DIN rails. To mount, simply attach the FIX blocks to the adapter. The adapter is then snapped onto the DIN rail. To prevent the blocks from slipping down, when mounting make sure that the side with the base latch is facing downward. The corresponding mounting adapter is listed in the accessories for the individual blocks. However, you can also directly select blocks including adapters in the product list.

Snap-on flanges for direct mounting of the distribution blocks

In addition to DIN rail mounting, the blocks can also be mounted directly by means of snap-on flanges. To do this, you need to connect the flanges to the ends of the FIX blocks by means of tongue and groove connection. For longer rows of blocks, flanges should also be integrated between the FIX blocks. Once the flanges are engaged, the blocks can simply be screwed onto the mounting panel. The corresponding flange is listed in the accessories for the respective block.

Distribution blocks with adhesive pad for adhesive mounting

The distribution block versions for adhesive mounting feature an adhesive pad on the bottom of the block. To mount these blocks, simply remove the protective foil covering the adhesive pad. You can now attach the block to various surfaces. When using this method, make sure that the blocks are always adhered to clean surfaces. It is not necessary to use a primer or roughen the surface beforehand. You will find detailed assembly notes and information regarding the adhesive in the online shop in the download area for the respective products.

Double DIN rail adapter

The double DIN rail adapter can be snapped onto the NS 35 DIN rail and thus enables the space-saving configuration of several distribution blocks. To mount, attach the distribution blocks to the corresponding adapter feet. The blocks can then be easily snapped onto the DIN rail. We recommend using two snap-on feet for each stand-alone block. The corresponding mounting adapter is listed in the accessories for the 1.5 mm² versions.

Distribution blocks with securing pin adapter

Another direct mounting can be implemented using the adapters with securing pins. To do this, snap the base blocks onto the matching adapter feet. For fastening to the mounting panel, the securing pins simply need to be inserted through the pre-drilled holes in the mounting panel. Thanks to the movable adapters, the distance can still be precisely adjusted even later on.

General accessories

Bridge accessories for the distribution blocks and collection blocks

The distribution blocks in the FIX families feature integrated bridging. All the distribution connections are connected to each other and to the line contact by means of this bridging. If you need more than one distribution block with 18 terminal points, the Push-in distribution blocks and collection blocks can be extended easily with the 2-pos. standard plug-in bridges from the CLIPLINE complete system. Snap the blocks together with the tongue and groove connection. As soon as the blocks are connected, they can be extended easily with a plug-in bridge across the outer distribution connections.

Test accessories for the distribution and collection blocks

So that tests can be performed as quickly and easily as possible, the FIX blocks feature special test pick-offs for test plugs with a diameter of 2.3 mm. The test pick-offs make it very easy to test the blocks with the conductors inserted. In addition, the test pick-offs provide a high level of touch safety during the testing process. The distribution and collection blocks are equipped with one test pick-off per block. The function distribution blocks, on the other hand, have one test pick-off per connection. The reason for this is that the various distribution connections can be separated and tested separately with the aid of the disconnect knives. The individual connections of the fuse block can also be measured separately.

Marking accessories for FIX distribution blocks and device terminal blocks

For easy marking of the FIX distribution blocks and device terminal blocks, the blocks can be marked with self-adhesive marking material (TML or SK). To enable straight and neat marking, the FIX blocks have a flat marking groove specially designed for adhesive markings.
