Terminal Blocks Instructions

Instructions Step 4

Wiring Touch-Down Terminal Blocks: BNH Series

Instructions Step 1 Step 2 Step 3

Step 1. Insert the wire (or crimping terminal) into
the terminal block with the terminal
screws in the open position. (Use of
crimping terminals is optional.)

Step 2. Push the terminal screw down to hold the
wire in place.

Step 3. Hold the terminal screw down, and tighten
with a screwdriver.

Step 4. To remove the wire, loosen the terminal
screw and pull up until wire is released.

Instructions Installation and Removal of Terminal Blocks
Appearance

Step 1. Slide the terminal blocks onto the DIN rail from one end. Removal
Tool
Step 2. Use BNL5 or BNL6 end clips to secure the terminal block row BND2
and to prevent side-to-side movement. BNH10W, BNH15MW,
BNH15LW, and BNH30W can be installed from the middle of a
DIN rail.

Step 3. To install, place the terminal block on top of the DIN rail and
push down until both edges of the terminal block snap onto the
DIN rail.

Step 4. To remove the terminal block, use the BND2 removal tool as
shown on the right.

Step 1. Assemble a row of terminal blocks with end plates on exposed Mounting
end(s). Clip

Step 2. Use BNDL2 mounting clips at both ends of a row.

Step 3. With the two holes of the mounting clip aligned with the terminal
block holes, insert a connecting rod through each hole.

Step 4. Secure the ends of the connecting rods with the connecting Mounting
nuts, as shown below. Clip

Calculating DIN Rail Lengths

Instructions Appearance

Step 1. Add widths of all terminal blocks Overall Mounting Centers
(reference pages K-4 through K-9). Rail Length + 1" (25mm)

Step 2. Add the endplate thickness Mounting Centers
(usually only one). every 2" (50mm)

Step 3. Add the DIN rail stop widths
(usually two are used).

Step 4. Round to the nearest 2" (50mm)
increment to allow for DIN rail hole
spacing.

Step 5. Add 1" (25mm) to ensure 0.5"
(12.5mm) of clearance at each end
of the DIN rail.
