This connector utilizes failsafe bi-directional cylinder-lift terminals at the top and bottom, offering shock protection. Terminal sizes accommodate IEC 25/25 mm² (35/35 mm² single slot for In > 63 A) and UL/CSA AWG18-4 (up to 63 A) for cables. For busbars, it supports IEC 10/10 mm² (not for In = 80-100 A) and UL/CSA AWG18-8 (up to 63 A). Tightening torque is 2.8 Nm (3 Nm for In = 125 A) IEC, and 25 in-lbs UL/CSA (up to 63 A). Installation is facilitated by a Pozidriv Nr. 2 tool and mounting on a 35 mm DIN rail EN 60715 via a fast clip device. The unit can be mounted in any position and allows connection from both top and bottom. Withdrawal from the busbar is tool-free from the bottom (excluding 125 A models). Dimensions are 85 mm (H) x 69 mm (D) x 35 mm (W) for 2P configurations and 85 mm (H) x 69 mm (D) x 70 mm (W) for 4P configurations.
