Earth terminals - FSL 1.5-16mm²
FSL
The FSL pressure-spring earth terminals, rated for conductor cross-sections from 1.5 mm² up to 16 mm², are engineered for rapid, tool-free connection using spring-pressure technology. Mounted on a TS‑35 DIN rail, they are housed in flame-retardant polyamide‑6.6 (UL 94‑V0), with an impressive operating temperature range of –40 °C to +120 °C. These green/yellow terminals conform to overvoltage category III and contamination degree 3, offering robust insulation and safety in harsh industrial environments. Depending on the variant, the terminal width ranges from just 4.1 mm to 12.1 mm, lengths from 48.5 mm to 80 mm, and heights aligning with standard TS‑35 rail dimensions. They support instruction-compliant connection of both solid and stranded conductors (with or without ferrules) from 0.2 mm² up to the maximum, using a standardized 12 mm stripping length. Certifications include CSA, CSA US, KEMA‑KEUR, and EAC, with UL 1059 and C22.2 No 158 compliance.
These earth terminals are ideal for compact, high-density earthing and grounding setups in control panels and distribution cabinets. Thanks to the pressure-spring mechanism, installers benefit from tool-free, vibration-resistant connections—a significant time-saver and reliability feature in machinery and industrial panels. Their colour-coding (green/yellow) ensures immediate visual identification, aiding maintenance and safety compliance. Multiple connection versions (2–4 poles) cover a wide range of grounding demands, from signal circuits to heavier power feeders. The modular design features cross-connection channels for easy busbar integration, making FSL terminals a robust and efficient choice for professional-grade earthing infrastructures.Â
