XCDS-16 Disconnect Terminal Block

The XCDS-16 is a 16 mm2 knife-disconnect terminal block engineered for safe, tool-operated circuit isolation in industrial control panels. Featuring a hinged disconnect blade, it allows technicians to open measurement and control circuits instantly without rewiring.

Built with UL94 V-0 flame-retardant PA66 housing and high-conductivity electrolytic copper current bars, the XCDS-16 ensures low contact resistance, high vibration resistance, and stable long-term electrical performance in demanding switchgear environments. Fully compatible with industry-standard 35 mm DIN rails and standard plug-in bridging systems.
 

Hinged Disconnect Lever: Clearly visible switch blade provides positive feedback for open/closed circuit status, preventing operational errors during testing.

Maintenance-Free Screw Clamp: Reversible steel clamping yoke with anti-loosening thread design resists shock and vibration, eliminating terminal retightening maintenance.

Integrated Test Points: Built-in test sockets on both sides of the disconnect point allow direct insertion of 4 mm test probes without opening the knife switch.

Universal Accessory Compatibility: Accepts standard plug-in jumpers (FBS series), end brackets, and marking strips for fast potential distribution across adjacent terminals.

Zero-Halogen Housing: Molded from virgin PA66 engineering plastic, offering superior tracking resistance (CTI 600) and operating temperatures from -40°C to +105°C.

Industrial Automation Control Panels: Signal isolation and control loop testing in PLC cabinets.

Power Distribution Switchgear: Secondary circuit isolation in high-voltage switchyards.

Process Instrumentation: Disconnecting sensor and transmitter loops during calibration.

Renewable Energy Systems: Inverter and combiner box test circuits.

Laser Marking: Custom terminal part numbers, circuit diagrams, and terminal block labeling printed directly on the housing surface.

Color Customization: Standard grey available from stock; blue, red, orange, yellow, and black available for bulk custom orders.

Pre-Assembled DIN Rail Assemblies: Delivered pre-configured with end brackets, partition plates, and jumpers according to your electrical schematic.

Automated Injection Molding: Precision molds operated on 160T-250T Haitian injection machines maintain dimensional tolerances within ±0.03 mm, preventing rail-mounting deformation.

Metal Stamping & Plating: High-speed progressive stamping presses form current bars from raw copper strip, followed by automated barrel plating (nickel/tin) to guarantee uniform coating thickness (≥3 µm).

Rigorous Testing Protocol (In-House & Third-Party Aligned):
• Dielectric Withstand Voltage Test: 100% routine testing at 3000V AC for 60 seconds in accordance with IEC 60947-7-1.
• Contact Resistance Test: Monitored to remain below 0.8 mΩ after 500 mechanical mating cycles.
• Torque and Pull-out Tests: Verified on motorized test stands to exceed UL 486 / IEC 60947 mechanical retention requirements.
