Altech’s Eurostrips are safe, economical and meet worldwide standards.
They are a cost-effective alternative
to barrier strips that require laborintensive wire lugs and they reduce
the number of electrical connections
in circuits.
Eurostrips feature tubular screw
clamps, wire protectors, and are
ready for immediate wire hookup.
Eurostrips are ideal in small spaces,
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.
Feed-Through Eurostrips are supplied
with wire protectors. Offered with
flat bases or standoff feet, they are
molded
of
self-extinguishing
polyamide. Custom imprinting and
marking plates are available.

Eurostrips®
EASY MOUNTING SAVES
INSTALLATION TIME
RELIABLE CONNECTION
EVERY TIME
Eurostrips are mounted quickly in panels. Use standard screws or mounting
pins, offered as accessories in this section, or leave them free floating to completely eliminate mounting.
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 or thread
damage. This provides
trouble free operation. Screws are
electrogalvanized and bluechromated to provide corrosion resistance. Optional nickel plated
brass screws may be ordered for highly
corrosive environments or marine applications.
EASY
CONNECTION SAVES
MONEY
What could be easier? Simply strip the
wire 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.
EASY MODIFICATION REDUCES
INVENTORY
Offered in easy-to-cut 12-pole strips, they
can also be ordered precut with the required
number of poles. 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.
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.
HOUSINGS
Eurostrip housings are injection molded
from self-extinguishing polyamide 66/6,
V-O 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).
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.

EXTERNAL JUMPERS
Accessories
Convenient options that facilitate
installation and wire termination.
External Jumpers
Bus potentials between poles
on Eurostrip Terminal Strips
reducing wiring time and eliminating wire jumpers.
Jumper Pole positions may be
removed to provide selective
jumpering. When using external jumpers, the terminal's
rated cross section is usually
reduced one wire size. For
jumper maximum current ratings, refer to the corresponding Eurostrip IEC/VDE current
rating.

MOUNTING PINS
Accessories
Convenient options that facilitate
installation and wire termination.
Mounting Pins
Speed panel mounting of
Eurostrips with Mounting
Pins. Simply match drill clearance hole in panel, position
Eurostrip and install Mounting
Pin through hole and into
mounting hole in Eurostrip
housing. Once pin passes
beyond Eurostrip housing, it
automatically expands, securing housing to panel. Use two
or more mounting pins per
Eurostrip.
