Phoenix Contact PTME 6 Messwandler-Trennklemme Push-in Disconnect Terminal Block, 1000 V, 41 A, 6 mm², Grey

Engineered for high-voltage measurement and isolation tasks, the Phoenix Contact PTME 6 Messwandler-Trennklemme delivers a rated surge voltage of 8 kV and a nominal voltage of 1000 V, ensuring robust performance in demanding industrial environments. This push-in disconnect terminal block handles up to 41 A and accommodates conductors up to 10 mm² solid, making it a versatile choice for transformer and current transformer circuits.

Overview

The PTME 6 is a single-level, single-potential terminal block with three push-in connections. Its integrated disconnect slide allows safe and tool-free circuit isolation, while the 4 mm test socket enables convenient measurement and testing without disconnecting wires. The grey polyamide housing is halogen-free and flame-retardant (UL 94 V0), providing long-term reliability.

What stands out

• High current capacity: 41 A nominal current with 6 mm² rated cross section.
• Wide conductor range: accepts solid conductors from 0.5 to 10 mm² and stranded from 0.5 to 6 mm² (AWG 20-8).
• Tool-free push-in connection: reduces wiring time and ensures vibration-resistant contact.
• Integrated disconnect slide: enables quick isolation for testing or maintenance.
• Test socket: 4 mm diameter for standard test plugs, simplifying diagnostics.
• Robust design: operating temperature from -60 °C to 105 °C, pollution degree 3, overvoltage category III.
• Flexible mounting: fits DIN rail NS 35/7.5 and NS 35/15.
