V7 screwless terminal blocks reduce installation time by more than 50% compared to screw-type blocks, says the company. They also reduce maintenance requirements and contribute to increased reliability in harsh industrial environments, the company says. Terminal wires are held in place with the block’s spring clamp system. The clamps are opened and closed using a flat-head screwdriver. Under high vibration, the patented clamps will remain closed, and the force required to pull a wire from a closed clamp is among the highest in its class, says the manufacturer.
