QPD installation system for quick and easy cable connection
The QPD installation system from Phoenix Contact enables you to connect cables quickly, easily, and without using special tools. The product range covers conductor cross-sections from 0.5mm ² to 6mm ². As such, QPD is suiteable for power levels up to 690V/40A, for power distribution in widely distributed machines, systems, and buildings.
For applications with limited installation space, there is the compact product group from 0.5mm ² to 1.5mm ². Fixed and pluggable versions, with up to four outlets, are available as options.
Thanks to the installation system's IDC fast connection technology, up to 80 per cent of the wiring time for connection can be saved. For installation, the cable sheath is simply removed and the litz wires are arranged in the splice body, cut flush, and screwed. Another advantage is the robust design and therefore the flexible use of the products. The range satisfies the requirements of protection classes IP68 and IP69k as well as IK07 impact strength. The product portfolio includes panel feed-through, cable connectors, connectors, and H- and T-distributors.
