New AC 166® installation products: Phase selection distributor and new 5 pole codings

Flexible electrical installation continues to gain ground. That is why we have expanded our AC 166® range.
The new distribution block complements our range of T, H and HH distributors. The distributor has a 5 pole input and output and two taps each for phases 1, 2 and 3, all in coding 1 (black and white).

The special advantages of our new product are the two additional mounting options, which you already know from our H and HH distributors.
1. Mounting with Adels mounting adapter for cable support systems

With the mounting adapter, the distributors can be attached to the standard mounting plates of cable support systems such as JMV, OBO, Rittal or Niedax. This makes the possible applications of the AC 166® series even more flexible.

2. Mounting with components from Schnabl
As opposed to the cable support systems mentioned above, the Schnabl principle is based on quick and cost-effective fastening directly in the ceiling or wall. Please take a look at the application video: Schnabl application video

As with the H/H distributors, we have adapted the base of the phase selector distributor to the fixing nails of the Schnabl system.
The currently available codings of the 5 pole AC 166® plug connections no. 1 / black/white (mains) and no. 2 / pastel blue (DALI) are supplemented by two new codings.

The following products are offered:
