Power feed-in

On the high seas or in rail vehicles, electrical connection solutions are required that are particularly safe, flexible, robust, and resilient. Very high-performance solutions are therefore used for power feeds in switchgear and distribution cabinets. Environmental factors such as high humidity, corrosive atmospheres, high mechanical loads, or vibrations can have a strong impact on switchgear. In our wide product range of high-current terminals for power feed-in, you will find flexible solutions for conductor cross-sections from 35 to 185 mm².

Klippon® Connect A2C 35 - A2C 95/185 power feed-in terminal blocks Product innovation

For fast and safe wiring of big cross-section

In the context of industrial manufacturing, efficient switchgear cabinet construction is of utmost interest to the plant operator. Constant change and numerous international standards increase the demands on the switchgear and its components. In power supply and distribution, large conductor cross-sections are safely laid and connected to the components under harsh conditions and in the tightest of spaces. Our wide range of connection solutions enables convenient wiring even under difficult environmental conditions. Thanks to the compact design and the combination of many practical handling advantages, you realize the supply of power in switchgear and cabinets easily, efficiently and in a space-saving manner.

Power Distribution

In the demanding environment of rail vehicles and ships, electrical energy must be distributed particularly efficiently and reliably. Perfectly adapted solutions are needed here that address all industry-specific peculiarities. Here, safe operation under extreme requirements such as maximum speeds, strong vibrations and corrosive environments is particularly important. Our solutions are designed to meet these high requirements even under extreme conditions.

Klippon® Connect APGTB 1.5 - APGTB 4 pluggable power distribution terminal blocks

The pluggable solution

Where complete functional units have to be prefabricated or replaced, modular and flexible connection systems are required. Pluggable terminal blocks accelerate the assembly and simplify the exchange of functional units and the disassembly of parts for transport.

Klippon® Connect pluggable terminal blocks with PUSH IN connection technology combine the advantages of our unique connection technology with the flexibility of our connectors. They enable quick, easy exchange of functional units on the panel. The system works reliably even under the harshest conditions, and it is therefore also suitable for railway and ship applications.

Control voltage distribution

In ships and trains, the control voltage distribution must meet the highest requirements due to the high power density and the special environmental conditions. The large number of so-called "important" consumers requires a particularly reliable power supply and thus extremely powerful products. Our latest terminal block series was specially developed for the railway industry and shipbuilding, so that it meets standards of increased safety. And with our customised potential distribution terminal blocks AAP, you can even realise complete control of current distributions in a small space.
