DIN Rail Terminal Accessories

DIN rail terminal accessories are supplementary components used together with DIN rail terminals for enhanced functionality. These accessories are commonly configured for use with various types of terminal blocks, including screw clamp terminal blocks, end stoppers, end bracket for use in CDK, CDU, CPE, and CTR, and more. Incorporating these accessories enable users to achieve greater efficiency, improve organisation, and make maintenance in industrial and commercial electrical systems easier.

How do DIN rail terminal accessories work?

Each type of DIN rail accessory fulfils a unique function. End plates, for example, are designed to easily snap onto the DIN rail terminal to cover the exposed parts for added safety. End plates also help to prevent the terminal from dust, water or any other substances that may compromise their functionality.

End brackets or clamps guarantee a reliable, permanent mounting on the DIN rail and prevent sliding. They are available in screw and non-screw versions.

Jumper bars are used to connect consecutive and non-consecutive terminal blocks that are within the same spacing. They consist of metal tubes which make contact with the internal connector bar in the terminal block.

End stops or stoppers are essential components used to secure terminal blocks on a DIN rail, preventing lateral movement and ensuring stability. They help maintain the organisation and integrity of the terminal block arrangement by keeping all components firmly in place.

Mounting brackets are used to attach various electrical components securely to a DIN rail. These brackets provide a stable and reliable means of support, facilitating easy installation and maintenance of equipment within electrical panels or enclosures. Accessories like mounting plates and adapters are components leveraged to facilitate the attachment of various devices and equipment to a DIN rail using mounting brackets

Angle brackets are designed to mount electrical components at a specific angle on a DIN rail, offering flexibility in positioning and orientation. They are ideal for applications where space constraints or specific mounting angles are required to optimise the layout of electrical systems.

DIN rail covers are protective accessories used to protect terminal blocks and other components from dust, debris, and accidental contact.

Standoff brackets are used to create space between the DIN rail and mounted components, allowing for better airflow and heat dissipation.

DIN rail spacers are used to maintain a specific distance between terminal blocks or other components. They ensure proper spacing, which is crucial for effective heat dissipation, easy access, and preventing electrical interference between closely mounted components.

Before using any of these DIN rail accessories, make sure you or your team follows safety protocols. Check out the workplace safety best practices to learn more.
