Compact design – PT

This little connector can light the way! At only 5mm in height and easy push-in with spring termination, the PTSM family of connectors from Phoenix Contact is the ideal connector. The largest possible clamping space can be achieved with even the smallest dimensions. You benefit from high levels of connection convenience and a wide range of connection options – even if space is limited or the design is restrictive.

Compact PCB connectors with crimp connection

The connectors of the PTCM series make it possible for the first time to have crimp contacts in the PTSM product family. Thanks to a latching flange on the side, stable latching to the mating connector is possible. Compact solutions can be created for wire-to-wire connections, especially when combined with inverted PCB connectors.

Your advantages:

• Cost-effective connection of crimped conductors in large quantities.
• Plug-compatible PCB connectors with crimp or Push-in technology for flexible conductor connection.
• Tools for manual and automatic crimping available as an option.
