Phoenix Connector

What is a Phoenix connector?

A Phoenix connector is a type of screw terminal block connector commonly used in industrial and automation applications for secure wire connections. It features a removable terminal block that can be unplugged from its header, allowing for easy maintenance and field wiring without having to disconnect individual wires. These connectors are known for their reliability, high current capacity, and ability to accept various wire gauges through their screw-down terminals. They are widely used in control panels, PLCs, and other industrial equipment where robust, serviceable connections are required.
