Altech’s Eurostrips are safe, economical and meet national and international standards. They are a cost-effective alternative to barrier strips that require labor-intensive wire lugs and they reduce the number of electrical connections in circuits. It’s easy. Eurostrips feature tubular screw clamps, wire protectors, and are ready for immediate wire hookup. Eurostrips are ideal for limited space, which means more room for other components or reduced enclosure size. Free float or mount them onto any panel. They are available in easy-to-cut 12-pole strips or pre-cut. Double-Row Feed-Through Eurostrips are supplied with wire protectors. Offered with flat bases or standoff feet, they are molded of selfextinguishing polyamide. Custom imprinting and marking plates are available.

Use standard screws or mounting pins, offered as accessories in this section, or leave them free floating to completely eliminate mounting. EASY CONNECTION S AV E S M O N E Y What could be easier? Simply strip the insulation, insert the wire and tighten the screw to achieve a gas-tight, electrically efficient connection—every time. Wire lugs are eliminated, saving material cost and installation time. E A S Y M O D I F I C AT I O N R E D U C E S I N V E N T O RY Order standard (12) pole Eurostrips or precut lengths to meet your specific pole requirements. Polyamide housing can be cut with a utility knife or hacksaw, providing flexibility to meet changing needs. Because standard 12 pole strips can be so easily cut to the required number of poles, stocking is simplified and inventory is minimized. Wire Protector Center Barrier The basis for the Eurostrip’s reliable connection is a precision machined tubular screw clamp insert made from highly conductive copper alloy which is nickel plated for maximum corrosion resistance. The clamping screw material is high strength steel to prevent screw head breakage and thread damage resulting from over torquing and to provide trouble free operation. Screws are plated with zinc yellow chromate to provide corrosion resistance. Optional stainless steel or nickel plated brass screws may be ordered for highly corrosive environments or marine applications. Standard Eurostrips feature stainless steel wire protectors. Unlike wire protectors found in many competitive products which use copper alloy materials, stainless steel has superior memory characteristics. Accordingly, the wire protector will return to its original position even after repeated use. This means trouble-free wire insertion and quicker reconnections. ACCESSORIES External jumpers bus potentials between poles on Eurostrips, eliminating wire jumpers and reducing wiring time. Isolation partition increases clearance between adjacent poles and provides visual separation for more efficient wiring. Mounting pins simplify installation and mounting of Eurostrips. Simply drill the mounting hole, position and install the pin from underneath the panel. When correct position is reached, pin will retain terminal to panel. Identify circuits and reduce wiring mistakes with marking plates. Order plates imprinted or blank. Position under or on top of a Eurostrip housing. Imprinting Eurostrips reduces wiring errors and helps to identify circuits. Use Imprinting to mark individual poles when high quantities are involved or custom imprints are required. Altech’s stainless steel wire protector features a unique center barrier preventing wires from being inserted too far. Another Altech advantage. HOUSINGS Eurostrip housings are injection molded from self-extinguishing polyamide 6.6 molding material, possessing high dielectric strength and excellent electrical insulation and temperature resistance. Each housing has been specially designed to provide creepage and clearance distances to achieve ratings up to 600V. Choose low profile, flat base housings for minimum clearance applications (300V) or housings with mounting feet for maximum voltage isolation (600V).
