Overview

The NSI Industries PTS250 is a high-quality, all-aluminum solid pin terminal engineered for the reliable termination of both aluminum and copper conductors. Designed for 250 MCM wire sizes, this terminal ensures robust electrical connections in demanding applications. The solid aluminum pin is tin-plated, providing excellent low contact resistance and superior oxidation protection. To further enhance longevity and performance, the connector is pre-filled with an oxide inhibitor, preventing corrosion and maintaining conductivity over time. A convenient, color-coded cap is included, indicating the correct die to use for crimping, simplifying the installation process and reducing the risk of errors. The integrated cover facilitates quick and secure installation. Rated for a maximum of 600 Volts, the PTS250 meets UL486A/B listing requirements for wire connector adapters. Its temperature rating is 90°C, suitable for AL9CU applications. The required crimp tool for this terminal is the N1240. Key specifications include a pin diameter (A) of 0.594 inches, a pin length (L1) of 0.460 inches, and a body length (L2) of 2.620 inches, with an overall length (L) of 3.080 inches. Each standard carton contains 10 units. This terminal is ideal for applications requiring secure and durable connections for large gauge conductors, such as power distribution, industrial equipment, and heavy-duty electrical systems where both aluminum and copper conductors are utilized.

How to Install the PTS250 Pin Terminal

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and wiring the PTS250 pin terminal, ensuring a secure and compliant setup.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors

  1. Prepare the conductor

    Carefully strip the insulation from the conductor to a length of 1-1/4 inches, ensuring not to nick the strands.

  2. Clean the conductor

    Wire brush the stripped portion of the conductor to remove any oxide films, ensuring it is clean before proceeding.

  3. Connect the terminal

    Insert the cleaned conductor completely into the barrel of the PTS250 terminal connector and crimp it securely using the appropriate crimping tool.

  4. Mount the terminal

    Secure the PTS250 terminal to the designated mounting location using the provided mounting screws, ensuring it is level and firmly attached.

  5. Verify connections

    Use a multimeter to check the continuity of the connections to ensure proper installation and functionality.
