Overview

The NSI Industries PTS6 is a robust solid pin terminal engineered for reliable termination of both 6 AWG copper and aluminum conductors. Manufactured from solid aluminum, this terminal is tin-plated to ensure low contact resistance and provide superior oxidation protection. Each connector is pre-filled with an oxide inhibitor, a critical feature for maintaining electrical integrity over time, especially when working with dissimilar metals. A color-coded cap is included, indicating the appropriate die to use for crimping, simplifying the installation process and minimizing errors. The PTS6 is supplied with a protective cover, facilitating quick and safe installation. This terminal is rated for a maximum of 600 Volts, making it suitable for a wide range of electrical applications. Its construction adheres to UL486A/B standards for wire connectors, ensuring compliance and safety. The temperature rating is 90 °C (AL9CU), and the recommended crimp tool is the NSI N1240. Key specifications include a pin diameter (A) of 0.220 inches, an overall length (L) of 1.850 inches, a pin length (L1) of 0.681 inches, and a body length (L2) of 1.169 inches. The outer diameter (OD) is 0.598 inches, and the inner diameter (ID) is 0.220 inches. The PTS6 is packaged with 25 units per standard carton, making it an efficient choice for projects requiring multiple terminations. Its dual-rated capability for copper and aluminum conductors, combined with the pre-filled inhibitor and ease of installation, makes the PTS6 a practical and dependable solution for electrical infrastructure.

How to Install the PTS6 Controller

This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and wiring the PTS6 Controller on a DIN rail.

Estimated time: 45m

Tools needed:

Screwdriver, Wire strippers, Multimeter

Supplies needed:

Mounting screws, Terminal connectors

  1. Mount the controller

    Secure the PTS6 controller to the DIN rail using the integrated clips. Ensure the controller is level and firmly attached.

  2. Prepare the conductors

    Carefully strip the insulation from the conductors to a length of 1-1/16 inches, ensuring not to nick the strands. Clean the stripped portion with a wire brush to remove any oxide films.

  3. Connect the conductors

    Insert the stripped conductors completely into the terminal connectors. Use a crimping tool to secure the connections according to the specifications in the installation guide.
