/ A
PPLICATION
Thomas and Betts offers the most
extensive line of Europa products in
five pitches:
• 8mm
• 10mm
• 12mm
• 13.5mm
• 14.5mm
Two connection styles are available.
The Wire Protector version supplies a
plate to shield the wire from being cut
by the screw. The Tunnel connection
is the same design, but without the
sheilding plate – it is ideal for solid
wire or where the most economical
price is required.

PPLICATIONS
• Motor Controls
INCLUDE
:
• Power Supplies
• Telecom
• Valve Actuators

eliminate twisting and breakage of
stranded wire during connection.
• High circuit density — five models
provide from 21 to 38 circuits per
foot.
• “Dead-front” construction — both
screws and tubular contacts are
recessed in housing for safety and
to prevent short circuits.
• Captive screws — zinc with
chromate plated steel screws are
captive in tin plated brass contacts.
They are supplied “backed-out”
and ready to wire.
• Flammability rating of UL94V-2 is
standard.
High
Temperature
versions with UL94V-0 are
available.

DVANTAGES
• Modular design — cut into smaller
sections without altering electrical
properties or order product molded
to length. Mounting holes between
every circuit.
• Tubular contacts — connect
stripped, unterminated solid or
stranded wire directly to each
contact — no wire lugs needed.
• High voltage and current ratings —
rated up to 600 volts and up to 65
amps depending on model and
wire size used.
• Broad Wire Range — use wire from
#6 to #26 AWG depending on
model selected.
• Wire protectors — all models
available with wire protectors to
