Description
XVS-430-10MPI-1-10 EATON ELECTRIC Touch panel
Two pairs of twisted signal conductors are connected to the left side of each terminal pair, where only one pair of twisted wires is connected to the right side. This also explains why each terminal block section has two screw holes on the left and only one on the right.
A close-up photo of a single terminal block section shows how the screen clamping system works. On the right side of this block, a single wire (with a straight compression ring at the top) is securely clamped. No wires are plugged into the left side
To remove or insert a wire end from a “screwless” terminal block, you must insert a narrow screwdriver into a hole in the block near the insertion point, then rotate the screwdriver (like a lever) to apply pressure to the spring clip. Unthreaded terminal blocks typically terminate and unterminate terminals more quickly than screw-type blocks, and the push of the releasing tool against the body is gentler than the twisting action required to loosen and tighten screws.
The modular terminal blocks of the XVS-430-10MPI-1-10 are manufactured to meet the needs of two-module wiring. For example, some terminal block modules have multiple “levels” rather than just one.
