Junction Blocks Increase Efficiency

July 3, 2009
Zip-Port multiport junction blocks are designed to provide time, cost and space savings by allowing multiple sensors to be wired to a single block with one cable connecting to the control panel. 
These  junction blocks are available in field wireable or five-meter cable versions, feature four and five-pin M12 connectors in four-, six- and eight-port models, and offer a choice of one or two I/O per port. The blocks provide 24VDC and 120VDC/AC operation in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +80°C (-4°F to +176°F) and also provide an IP67 degree of protection when all ports are either connected or covered with recommended protective caps. Prices for the Zip-Port multiport junction blocks start at $39.AutomationDirectwww.automationdirect.com800.633.0405
