A Wide Range of Solutions
The standardized tests attest to how reliable the direct
connection technology functions, even under demanding
ambient conditions and high safety requirements. SKEDD direct
connectors are suited for classic industrial applications as well
as for applications in building automation and railway technology.
SKEDD PCB connectors offer solutions for countless
applications such as climate control in rail vehicles, smoke and
fire alarms, or large household appliances. Both series feature
tool-free push-in spring connections: This means that both
solid and stranded conductors with ferrules can be connected
without opening the spring interface. The integrated test points
enable convenient function checks when loaded.
Designed for conductor cross sections up to 12AWG, the
single-row direct connectors are suited for voltages up to 320V.
The double-row connectors offer an efficient connection solution
specifically for signal densities that are often high in measuring,
control and regulation technology (Figure 4).

Tool-free, reliable, and process-efficient—the
combination of push-in spring connection
and SKEDD direct connection technology
offers new flexibility in device wiring. SKEDD
connectors do not require headers and can
be plugged in directly by hand in tin-plated
through-holes. This enables PCB and device
manufacturers to implement countless
device designs with application-specific
connections for signals, data, and power
using just a few PCB layouts.
Various tests have proven it: Whether for
applications with high vibration requirements
like railway technology or with special fire
protection requirements like in household
device technology—Phoenix Contact's direct
connectors with SKEDD technology are an
interesting new solution.
