Special terminal blocks
Circuit breakers and feed-through terminal blocks
The more varied the tasks in electrical
engineering, the more varied the
components for the solution have to be.
The industrial connection technology from
Phoenix Contact hence contains more than
just modular terminal blocks.
Circuit breakers
For the optimum protection of your
systems, Phoenix Contact offers highquality circuit breakers in the following
versions:
– Thermal circuit breakers TCP
They are ideally suited as device
protection for AC and DC loads, e.g. to
protect motors, transformers and
actuators against overloads
– Thermomagnetic circuit breakers TMC
They combine the advantages of thermal
and magnetic trigger mechanisms and are
typically used in information and
communication technology as well as in
process control
– Electronic circuit breakers ECP
They are designed specifically for selective
protection of all load circuits that are fed
by a 24 V DC power supply unit. They
respond to overload or short-circuit
faster than the power supply unit, and
they selectively switch off the faulty load
circuit before the power supply unit
switches off all connected loads to
protect itself

Feed-through terminal blocks
The feed-through terminal blocks from
Phoenix Contact are always used when
currents of different magnitudes have to be
guided through a panel. They are available in
three designs:
– For snapping into the housing panel
– For molding for fully-insulated
transformers and filter modules and
– As feed-through terminal blocks for high
currents
Detailed information on the feedthrough terminal blocks can be found
in the "COMBICON device
connection technology" catalog or at
www.phoenixcontact.net/eshop

communication technology, in process
control as well as in devices and systems.
Electronic circuit breakers
The ECP and ECP-E electronic circuit
breakers have been developed to provide
distinct protection even in 24 V DC load
circuits. They protect all loads that are fed
by a switched-mode power supply unit.

Special terminal blocks
Circuit breakers
The TCP .../DC 32V pluggable thermal
miniature circuit breakers combine the
protective mechanism of an auto flat-type
fuse with the advantages of an automatic
device. Potential distribution is carried out
through the basic terminal blocks.
The TCP pluggable thermal circuit
breakers with an integrated ON/OFF
switching function are available in compact
sizes between 0.25 and 10 A. Potential
distribution is carried out through the basic
terminal blocks.
The UT 6-TMC thermomagnetic circuit
breakers are characterized by their compact
design and large-surface labeling options.
They are integrated into the CLIPLINE
complete system using the plug-in bridge
shaft.
The TMC thermomagnetic circuit
breakers have signal contacts and are
available with two different trigger
characteristics and as 1-, 2- and 3-pos.
versions from 0.2 A to 16 A.
The TMCP pluggable thermomagnetic
circuit breaker has single and group signal
contacts. The signal contacts and supply
potentials are simply cabled using plug-in
bridges.
The EC-E electronic circuit breakers
offer an additional bridgeable terminal point
for the load return conductor in addition to
fault current limitation and bridgeable signal
contacts for single, group or reset function.
The ECP-E electronic circuit breakers
differ from the EC-E versions in their
pluggable modularity as a result of the
TMCP-SOCKET-M base.
The ECP circuit breakers are a
combination of electronic and thermal
circuit breakers; in the event of an error,
they interrupt the load circuit electrically.
The TMCP, EC-E and ECP pluggable
circuit breakers are characterized by their
modular design.
Thanks to this modular structure, they
can be customized according to the
application and can always be expanded or
replaced.

Note:
A mutual thermal effect occurs in the case of an assembly in rows
with concurrent load. This is equivalent to an increase in the ambient
temperature. It depends on the nominal current, the ambient
temperature, the number of devices and the distance between the
devices. The nominal current of the devices can either be overdimensioned (see multiplication factor for temperature response) or
can only be led to > 80%. Please ask for the maximum permissible
current for the assembly in rows that you plan.

The EC-E... electronic circuit breaker
selectively protects all DC 24 V load
circuits on power supply units. A
combination of active electronic current
limitation for short-circuit and an overload
shutdown from 1.1 x IN onwards ensures
that the circuit breaker can react to
overloads faster than the power supply unit.
In this case, the fault current is constantly
restricted to 1.3 to 1.8 times the nominal
current.

The area of application for the electronic
circuit breaker ECP-E extends to all aspects
connected with the power supply unit. In
the event of an overload, power supply units
reduce their output voltage and all the
connected loads are no longer supplied with
sufficient power, e.g. in the case of shortcircuit at the load.
This is remedied here by the electronic
circuit breaker ECP-E that protects all DC
24 volt load circuits selectively. The ECP-E
constantly limits the fault current at 1.8
times the protected nominal current.
Capacitive loads can thus be switched on
and loads are only switched off in the case
of an overload or short-circuit.
After detecting overload or short-circuit
in the load circuit, the load output of the
ECP-E is locked. The current flow is
interrupted in the faulty current circuit.
The ECP-E and subsequently the current
circuit can be activated again through the
electronic reset input (13;14) or manually at
the device through the slide-type switch.
A multi-color LED as well as the
integrated status output (12) display the
operating and error status. Due to its
plugging capacity and narrow width of
12.5 mm, the ECP-E offers time and space
saving mounting on the TMCP SOCKET M.

and a complete data sheet are provided

The electronic circuit breaker ECP 3-6
with a width of only 12.5 mm selectively
protects all 24 V DC load circuits. With a
combination of active electronic current
limitation and proven circuit breaker
technology including electrical isolation.
The ECP 3-6 can be plugged onto the
proven TMCP-SOCKET-M base, which also
guarantees fast and easy mounting and a
reduction in the logistics costs.
The area of application for the ECP 3-6
extends to all aspects connected with the
power supply unit. Because in the case of an
overload, power supply units reduce the
output voltage. As a consequence, the
connected loads would no longer be
sufficiently supplied. This means that if a
fault occurs in one consumer of a system,
the voltage will break down in all load
circuits.
The ECP 3-6 solves this problem by
always limiting the maximum possible
current to 1.8 times the value of the set
nominal current. Capacitive loads can thus
be switched on, loads, however, are only
switched off in the case of an overload or
short-circuit.
An LED and integrated signal contacts
indicate the operating and error states.

The TMCP SOCKET M socket is used for
rail-mounting of pluggable TMCP and ECP
circuit breakers. This can lead to a flexible
design with any desired number of
positions. A free combination of both types
of circuit breakers on one module also
enables individual protection.
The TMCP CONNECT LR termination
elements are plugged in on both ends of the
construction of the modules. The supply
can be signaled using connections 11 and 12.
The signal can be requested separately for
each circuit breaker. Using connections 13
and 14 in the termination elements, a signal
loop can be set up over all circuit breakers
quickly and without the need for additional
wiring. All electrical connections of the
main contacts and signal contacts are
located in the base.
The spring-cage connection and the
bridge shaft for potential distribution
facilitate wiring. Generous labeling options
facilitate the allocation of circuit breakers to
the modules.

Feed-through terminal blocks
General
Frequency converters, inverters, power
supply units and filter modules are only
some of the applications that have a
modular design and small compact housings.
Despite having different fields of application
and use, they all have one thing in common:
currents of different magnitudes have to be
led through the housing panel. A conductor
connection that can be released, is touch
proof and easy to install is nowadays
considered the most satisfactory
connection method for wiring these system
components.

The various feed-through terminal
blocks satisfy these requirements. Three
different designs are available:
– The DFK terminal blocks which are
snapped into sheet metal cutouts
– The VDFK molded feed-through
terminal blocks, which are made specially
for fully insulated transformers and coils
– The HDFK high-current feed-through
terminal blocks, whose clamping parts
are safely interlocked in the housing
All feed-through terminal blocks have a
touch-proof insulating housing which can be
labeled with various marking materials.
