Material Composition | Corrosive industrial environments | Industry: Steel (ASTM A36, withstands 5 years of salt spray) ▲ Base: Brass (ASTM B322, 10 years salt spray resistance) ▲ Advanced: Brass + Nickel (ASTM B180, 15 years salt spray resistance) | Enhanced durability in harsh conditions; lighter than steel (Base) | Advanced version may require specialized tools for installation |
Voltage Handling | High-voltage industrial machinery | Industry: 250V (IEC 60947-7, handles up to 250V AC/DC) ▲ Base: 300V (IEC 60947-7, 300V AC/DC) ▲ Advanced: 400V (IEC 60947-7, 400V AC/DC) | Supports higher power applications (e.g., motors, transformers) | Not suitable for low-voltage systems (e.g., consumer electronics) |
Connection Security | Tamper-sensitive installations | Industry: 1.0 Nm (ISO 1604, standard grip) ▲ Base: 1.5 Nm (ISO 1604, 50% stronger grip) ▲ Advanced: 2.0 Nm + anti-rotation (ISO 1456, prevents loosening) | Reduces accidental disconnection risks | Requires tool for installation; advanced version adds complexity |
Certification Compliance | Global industrial markets | Industry: CE (Basic safety) ▲ Base: CE + RoHS (No hazardous substances) ▲ Advanced: CE + RoHS + REACH (Complies with EU chemical regulations) | Meets stricter environmental and safety standards | Advanced compliance may increase procurement costs |
Contact Resistance | High-current applications | Industry: 0.005 Ω (IEC 60204, typical for standard blocks) ▲ Base: 0.003 Ω (30% lower resistance) ▲ Advanced: 0.002 Ω (50% lower resistance than industry) | Reduces heat buildup (e.g., 40% less heat at 100A) | Higher material costs for advanced versions |
Scalability (Contacts) | Variable wiring needs | Industry: Fixed 5-contact modules ▲ Base: 1–10 contacts (ISO 7637, adjustable for small–medium projects) ▲ Advanced: 1–20 contacts (ISO 7637 + modular adapters) | Flexibility for projects of any size | Base: Limited to 10 contacts; Advanced: Requires additional modules |
