FXP FlexiPlug® HYBRID PLUGGABLE BLOCK
Screw/Pressure-Plate Termination
.200" (5.08mm)
HYBRID TERMINAL BLOCK
FXP FlexiPlug® hybrid terminal blocks
combine U.S.-style standard screw-
driver barrier-block wire terminations
with a European-style pluggable block
nose; and will mate with both
Amphenol Pcd and competitive head-
ers. FlexiPlugs can be used inter-
changeably with moving cage clamp
style plugs, such as ELF, and both plug
styles can be used in the same system.
Safety Cover
Open Back
Screw/pressure-plate terminations
enclosed in a tri-barrier configuration
accept either a #2 Philips head or a
1/4" flat screwdriver and will accom-
modate up to two 12 AWG wires or
ring- or fork-tongue terminals
Open Back Wall
Color
Plugs can be supplied with an open
back wall on the upper row of con-
tacts (see photo insert above). This
facilitates fanning of wires in two
directions during installation.
The standard color for FXP series
plugs is black. All FlexiPlugs are also
available—with the same delivery
commitment—in green.
FLEXIPLUG OPTIONS
Optional accessories and variations,
outlined below, greatly expand the
FXP application range and flexibility.
Refer to the Part Number Guide on
this page for catalog number and
ordering guidance, or contact
Amphenol Pcd.
Protective Cover
Plating
A clear protective “finger-proof”
safety cover can be provided with the
FlexiPlug. See photo above. Contact
Amphenol Pcd for details.
Plugs and mating ELFH headers are
available with selective gold plating.
Keying
SPECIAL VARIATIONS
Standard ELF line keying tabs, as
described on page 29, are applica-
ble on the FXP as well.
Locking Ears
Integrally molded locking ears are
available with all FlexiPlugs for use in
high-stress or high-vibration applica-
tions, or where unintentional discon-
nect must be prevented. Plug ears
hold a captive floating locking screw
that engages a threaded insert in the
ELFH header ear.
In addition to the standard FlexiPlug
product variations, Amphenol Pcd is a
leading supplier of special block con-
figurations and modifications, tailored
to meet unusual system design
requirements. The FXP screw clamp
termination is suited for special I/O
configurations. Please contact the fac-
tory for further discussions.
Marking
FXP plugs are available with a variety
of standard and special markings.
Please contact the factory to discuss
your requirements.
For plugs with an even number of
contact positions, one locking screw
must be offset from the header by
using the FXPAD adapter (see illustra-
tion above).
