General information about terminals
System Elpress
System Elpress consists terminals and
tools that are designed and tested to-
gether give certified crimping result. By
using Elpress Cu-connection elements to-
gether with one Elpress crimp systems
one obtains connection that has been
tested according the requirements of
IEC 61238:1. possible, crimps should placed
next each other with couple mm
spacing between each one. Overlap is
sometimes inevitable.
This ensures that users will feel confi-
dent when using our systems, and that
a secure connection achieved through
the proper handling our products.
They can also used for straight splicing
of earth conductors. for hexagonal die

Marking terminals
Elpress marking system for copper termi-
nals shows logotype, cable area and type
number for hexagonal die. The terminals are approved
for installations ships and mobile
“offshore”units. This system
allows checks that the correct tools
have been used when contact crimping
because the die number automatically
becomes embossed during the contact
crimping.
