Reliable Ferrule Crimping for Industrial Wiring
Ferrules are commonly fitted to flexible stranded conductors before insertion into industrial terminal blocks. Correct crimping compresses the conductor strands within the ferrule to produce a neat and mechanically secure termination that can be inserted efficiently into the appropriate terminal connection.
The TE Connectivity PS-3 is designed specifically for this conductor preparation process. Its broad 0.08–10 mm² capacity enables one tool to cover numerous conductor sizes encountered in industrial control cabinets, automation systems and machine wiring, helping panel builders produce consistent ferrule terminations throughout an installation.
Typical Applications
- Crimping ferrules onto flexible electrical conductors.
- Industrial control panel assembly.
- Terminal block conductor preparation.
- Automation and PLC cabinet wiring.
- Machine building and equipment wiring.
- Electrical installation, servicing and maintenance.
