Phoenix Contact Terminal Block - PTT 2.5-2MT, Grey, 2.5mm², 2-Level, Push In Termination
This push-in knife disconnect terminal block from Phoenix Contact is designed for DIN rail mountin...This push-in knife disconnect terminal block from Phoenix Contact is designed for DIN rail mounting and features a dual-level connection with a 2.5 mm² rated cross-section. It operates at a nominal voltage of 400V and a current rating of 16A. The terminal block accommodates wire ranges from 0.14 mm² to 4 mm² (26-12 AWG) and is compatible with NS 35/7.5 and NS 35/15 rail types. It offers tool-free conductor insertion and a lever-activated disconnect mechanism. The insulation material has an inflambility class of V0 according to UL94. Its dimensions are 5.2mm width/grid dimension, 45.8mm height, and 92.4mm length. It is grey in color and requires a closing plate. Standards met include CSA. The model number is PTT 2,5-2MT.
This Phoenix Contact PTT 2.5-2MT terminal block is ideal for electrical engineers and technicians working with control cabinets and DIN rail installations who need a reliable, high-density connection solution. Its key benefit is the tool-free push-in termination, significantly speeding up wiring. A potential caveat is its specific compatibility with certain DIN rail types and the need for a closing plate for proper insulation.

FAQs
What is the maximum current and voltage rating for this terminal block?
The Phoenix Contact PTT 2.5-2MT terminal block has a rated voltage of 400V and a current rating of 16A.
Do I need any tools to wire this terminal block?
No, the push-in termination system allows for tool-free conductor insertion. A closing plate, however, needs to be snapped into place.
What types of conductors can be used with the PTT 2.5-2MT?
It accommodates solid and stranded conductors ranging from 0.14 mm² to 4 mm² (26-12 AWG). Using ferrules with stranded wire is recommended for optimal performance.
Which DIN rail sizes are compatible?
This terminal block is designed for mounting on standard NS 35/7.5 and NS 35/15 DIN rail types.
Is a closing plate included with the terminal block?
No, a closing plate is required for proper insulation and is sold separately. It is necessary to complete the terminal block assembly.
What is the inflambility class of the insulation material?
The insulation material has an inflambility class of V0 according to UL94 standards.
What are the physical dimensions of the terminal block?
The terminal block has a width of 5.2 mm, a height of 45.8 mm, and a length of 92.4 mm.
Troubleshooting
Conductor not making a secure connection
Ensure the conductor is stripped to the correct length and fully inserted into the push-in terminal. For stranded wire, use a ferrule or twist the strands tightly. Check that the conductor size is within the specified range (0.14 mm² - 4 mm²).
Terminal block not staying on DIN rail
Verify that you are using a compatible DIN rail type (NS 35/7.5 or NS 35/15). Ensure the rail is properly secured and that the terminal block is correctly engaged with the rail's profile.
Lever disconnect is stiff or difficult to operate
Check for any obstructions around the lever. Ensure the terminal block is not under excessive mechanical strain from wiring. Lightly actuate the lever a few times; it should become smoother with use.
