LS2572-3DIN
POWR-BLOKS power distribution blocks offer a safe, convenient way of splicing cables, providing a fixed junction tap-off point or splitting primary power into secondary circuits. LX2XXX-DIN series offers integral DIN-Rail mount and an optional hinged safety cover. Applications: Typical applications include heating, air conditioning and refrigeration systems, elevator systems, material handling equipment, control panels, motor controls, switchgear, and anywhere power needs to be distributed to more than one load.Frequently Asked Questions
What voltage and amperage ratings are available for these fuse blocks?
The fuse blocks are rated for 250VAC/DC and 600VAC/DC, with amperage ratings of 30A, 60A, 100A, 200A, 400A, and 600A.
What types of wire can be used with the connectors?
Connectors can accommodate stranded or solid copper or aluminum wire, with specific wire ranges varying by amperage and connector type.
What are the SCCR ratings for these fuse blocks?
SCCR ratings are 10kA with Class H fuses, 50kA with Class K fuses, and 200kA with Class R fuses.
What are the insulator materials and their dielectric strength?
Insulators are either molded glass-filled polycarbonate (GFPC) or phenolic, with dielectric strength exceeding 2500V.
Can I add poles to the 30A, 60A, and 100A fuse blocks?
Yes, a unique adder block can be snapped onto 1-, 2-, or 3-pole blocks to form multi-pole segmented blocks as desired.
What are the fuse clips made of and what types are available?
All fuse clips are made of high conductivity tin-plated copper. Spring reinforced or non-spring reinforced clips are available for 30A and 60A, while 100A and above are spring reinforced.
What are the recommended mounting screws for 30A and 60A fuse blocks?
The recommended mounting screws for all 30A and 60A fuse blocks are #10 (.190" dia.).
What are the recommended mounting screws for 100A and 200A fuse blocks?
For 100A, use 1/4" (.250" dia.) screws. For 200A, use #10 (.190" dia.) for 1-pole and 5/16" (.313" dia.) for 3-pole.
What are the recommended mounting screws for 400A and 600A fuse blocks?
