GE Intelligent Platforms PACSystems RX3i I/O Quick Connect Systems Terminal Block Quick Connect simplifies wiring and reduces cost. By choosing GE Intelligent Platforms’ Terminal Block Quick Connect system (TBQC), customers can simplify their panel layout and reduce installation cost. The TBQC incorporates a cable connector style I/O module terminal block and remote termination base connected via a cable. The TBQC is part of our Lower Total Cost of Ownership strategy to reduce development cost and to simplify panel layout. The TBQC is ideal for panel builders and OEMs that are looking to reduce wiring errors and installation time. Simplification of System Design without Sacrificing Flexibility Equipment builders are continuously looking for ways to reduce cost. FEATURES Cable Connector Style Terminal Blocks Diagnostics Shielded Cables Small Foot Print Series 90-30 Compatible With the I/O Terminal Block Quick Connect System, the user doesn’t have to wire individual wires from the I/O module to a field termination terminal block. The TBQC is simple to use, just attach the connector terminal block to the I/O module, snap the remote terminal base on the DIN rail and attach the cable. Installation is accomplished in seconds versus up to an hour of cutting, stripping and wiring 36 individual wires. Easy to Troubleshoot The high density TBQC system comes with test pads on the I/O module terminal block that assist in trouble shooting possible wiring issues. Stress Free Cabling System The connecting cables used with the TBQC are at a 90 degree angle to minimize stress on the terminal block and reduce panel depth. The cable incorporates a thumb screw locking mechanism to provide a secure connection. The high density TBQC cables are shielded to reduce electrical noise interference. Compact Remote Terminal Base The high density remote terminal base provides 32 points of I/O in a compact package only 100mm wide by 90mm tall, and projects 70mm off the DIN rail. The terminal block for the high density remote terminal base is removable without disturbing the wiring. An additional grounding lug is built into the base to reduce noise. BENEFITS Connector terminal block enables cable connections to reduce wiring and labor cost Integrated test points on the I/O terminal block to simplify troubleshooting Reduced electrical noise interference that can cause system malfunction and downtime The connecting cables provide a low profile connection that requires less panel depth and reduces stress on both the remote base and I/O terminal blocks. The TBQC systems are also compatible with Series 90-30 I/O modules Terminal Block Quick Connect System delivers cost savings in a rugged design. The TBQC System takes seconds to install the I/O module terminal block, remote base and cable. Conventional wiring can takes hours… . Cut each wire to length Strip each end Wire to the I/O terminal block Wire to the field distribution block Check to make sure the wiring is correct TBQC saves money and time, improves quality and panel appearance.
