Al and AlCu terminals and
connectors 16 - 1200 mm²
TERMINALS:
Elpress terminals and connectors are made from pure aluminium 99.7% and, in case of bi-metal types, also from electro-lytic copper. The standardrange size is 16 to 1200 mm² but a variety of customer specified types also exists.The Elpress Crimp System fits compact-ed/un-compacted stranded as well as solidAl conductors in accordancewith IEC 60228. Note that in case of solid con-
ductors one area step down is used as marked on the barrel. In case of sector-shaped conductors, pre-rounding is re-
quired and performed with tools within the Crimp System. This makes it possible tocrimp the terminal in such aposition that twisting is minimisedwhen connect-ing to the bus bar or apparatus. Two in-dents are always made in the order shown in the picture below.
Markings on Al and AlCu terminals
Al terminals type AK are mainly used for connection to Al bus bars, apparatus ter-minals or such.Bi-metal terminals Barrel marking, example:ALU185-R18-P32 (Elpress logotype) T2SOLID 240 type AKK are mainly used for connection to Cu busbars,apparatus terminals or such.Al connectors
ALU185 = Al-conductor, mm² R18 =id-no. for punch and matrix for pre-rounding
type AS are used to connect two Al conductors, also of different sizes.Bi-metal connectors
P32 =id-no. for punch and matrix for crimping
type AKS are used to connect an Aland a Cu conductor also of different sizes.Bi-metal pin connectors
T2 = Finnish temperature class
type AKP are used to connect Al conductors to mechanicalclamp type connections for round Cu pins.

Marking of Al and AlCu terminals
T2 = Finnish temperature class
Elpress System for marking of Al and AlCu terminals and connectors shows the stranded and solid metric conductor size and reference to the id-numbers of the appropriate Elpresspre-rounding and crimp tools. Do not use other crimp tools! The T2-mark is a reference to an earlier Finnishstandard. On bi-metal connectors there is also a tool id-reference to the hex-agonal die to be used for the Cu-crimp.
