Powerful 7,62 mm pitch plug connector

18 May 2005 Interconnection

Phoenix Contact's Power Combicon PC 5 plug connector system is based on the PC 4 system. With a compact pitch of 7,62 mm, all PC 5 plug components provide a nominal voltage of 600 V (UL approved). The permitted current is 32 A. An integrated steel upper spring provides additional contact reliability, especially during extreme changes in power or temperature.

The system has been designed for 2-12 pin layouts. The screw connection, for flexible conductors up to 6 mm², uses the tension sleeve principle. A screw flange for securing the connection between the plug component and the base housing is supplied with the plug connector.

The plug's shield contact provides a high-quality connection to the shielding mesh to prevent electrical interference. The screw integrated in the connector flange ensures that the shroud is securely connected to the metal front. If the housing or front plate is made of a non-conducting material, shielding can be connected directly to the PCB.
