172382-1

The 172382-1 by TE Connectivity AMP Connectors sets new standards in Terminal Blocks - Accessories - Marker Strips performance for renewable energy applications. This innovative marker strip solution combines exceptional weatherability with precision-engineered retention features, delivering 25-year service life in solar farm installations.Featuring Label, Insert construction, these strips provide IP67 environmental protection while maintaining tool-less installation. The corrosion-resistant materials exceed salt spray testing requirements for offshore wind turbine applications.With Blank identification patterns, these strips facilitate rapid commissioning of utility-scale inverters. The ultra-violet resistant markings maintain 98% contrast retention after 10,000 hours of accelerated weathering tests.Precision-engineered to 0.400" (10.16mm) dimensions, these strips ensure proper creepage distances in high-altitude installations. The material's CTE matches copper conductors to prevent seasonal misalignment.Certified for Barrier Blocks platforms, this solution reduces balance-of-system costs through standardized identification. The universal design accommodates both AC and DC distribution configurations.The Clear coding system aligns with international renewable energy standards for rapid visual identification. This photochromic material provides automatic contrast adjustment from dawn to dusk conditions.
