General information about Cu terminals

Marking of Cu terminals

Elpress marking system for copper termi-
nals shows logotype, cable area and type
number for hexagonal die. This system
allows checks that the correct tools
have been used when contact crimping
UL-approved terminals because the die number automatically
KR/KS, KRF/KSF, KRFS, KRFN, KRT/KST becomes embossed during the contact
UL approved in accordance with file no. crimping.

System Elpress
System Elpress consists of terminals and
tools that are designed and tested to-
gether to give a certified crimping result.
This ensures that users will feel confi-
dent when using our systems, and that DNV-approved terminals

Number of crimps
Normally one crimp is required up to
and including 150 mm² and two or three
crimps for larger areas. Note, however,

needed in some cases, see tables for tool
