Description
The FieldPoint item with the part number 777519-02 is the FP-TB-2 Universal Terminal Base, which comes equipped with 36 spring terminals. This product is designed by National Instruments and is marked as “Not for New Design,” indicating that it may be nearing the end of its lifecycle or is intended for existing installations rather than new projects.
The FP-TB-2 model supports a wire range of 16–26 AWG copper conductor, with a requirement for the stripped insulation to be 0.28 in. in length to ensure a secure connection. It features four dedicated terminals, two of which are V terminals and the other two are C terminals, alongside 32 numbered terminals for organized wiring and connections.
One of the key advantages of the FP-TB-2 is its compatibility with any I/O modules, with the exception of dual-channel modules, allowing for versatile use in various applications. The terminal base offers flexible mounting options, including DIN-rails or panels, to accommodate different installation environments.
It is capable of handling a maximum current of 10 A per terminal, with a maximum return current of less than 3 A for a single terminal. Furthermore, the FP-TB-2 can withstand a maximum channel-to-earth voltage of 250 V, ensuring safe operation under high-voltage conditions. The terminal base is designed to operate within a temperature range of -40° C to 70° C, making it suitable for use in a wide range of environmental conditions.
