MAKE AN EASY CONNECTION WITH PUSH-IN TERMINALS NHP’s new range of Allen-Bradley® Bulletin 1492-P Terminals feature push-in actuators for ease of use and time saving advantages. The push-in technology used allows for easier insertion of cables (solid, stranded or ferrules). Application specific terminal blocks such as Sensor Blocks, and Power Distribution Blocks are also available, allowing a simplified solution to customers’ requirements. A very low force is required on insertion and to release the cable, the push-in actuator is simply depressed using a tool (screwdriver). Alternatively, with fine stranded flex the actuator can be depressed for insertion. The use of the actuator is fast and easy. It eliminates difficulties in removing cables that can be present with spring clamp technology and is of an insulated design that eliminates the exposure to live conductors. The time saving advantages with the easy insertion force is approximately 30% over using standard screw type terminals. The Allen-Bradley® Bulletin 1492-P Push-in Terminal Blocks are available exclusively from NHP in a wide range of standard and application specific offerings, includes standard terminal blocks of 1.5mm 2 -6mm 2 in single or double deck configuration.

The CA9 contactors allow for switching of motor loads from 55kW to 630kW at 415V AC and from 55 to 600kW at 1000V AC and feature an electronically-controlled wide range AC/DC coil for easier voltage control on multiple applications with fewer parts. The advanced engineering of the coil design is eco-friendly and energy efficient, allowing users to operate the same applications with a smaller power supply. The CA9 contactors typically have a reduced footprint compared to previous product lines, allowing for a smaller panel and a smaller enclosure. CA9 contactors can be used in combination with Terasaki MCCB’s to achieve Type 2 co-ordination, including IE3 premium efficiency motors. The CA9 contactors are designed for applications from 116 to 2650 Amps and replace the Sprecher + Schuh CA6 contactors which were designed for applications from 115 to 860 Amps.
