Phoenix Contact PT-SG/1 PCB Connector


Responding to the need for products in the photovoltaic market, Phoenix Contact introduces the new PT-SG/1 “grapple contact”.  The grapple contact is a THR-solderable, single-position metal contact without an insulating housing.  It is primarily used for internal device wiring in device manufacturing.  The PT-SG/1 offers a spring-cage contact system, and is a cost-effective, tool-free way to terminate flat ribbon and other conductors.  This product is ideal for manufacturers of solar inverters and photovoltaic module outlet boxes as a method of making DC/AC connections that are led outside of the box, as well as connections to built-in chokes and coils.

  • Tape-and-reel packing for automated assembly in reflow process
