				Elpress Cu-terminals 
				Terminals for 0.75 mm˛ to 1000 mm˛ Cu-conductors are made of 
				99.9% copper. As standards we make 
				
				Elpress tube terminals (type KR/KRF/KRD), 
				jointing sleeves (type KS/KSF/KSD) and 
				
				Elpress C-sleeves, but also many 
				customer-adapted connectors. The
				Elpress system suits both 
				stranded conductors, in accordance with IEC 228 class 2, and 
				flexible conductors, in accordance with IEC 228 class 5. 
				 
				*
				Elpress Copper Tube terminals (KR/KRF/KRD) are mainly used 
				to connect to copper bus bars and apparatus outlets. 
				*
				Elpress Through connectors (KS/KSF/KSD) are mainly used when 
				joining copper cables in a cable installation. They can also be 
				used for straight jointing of uninsulated ground wiring. 
				* With a type C branch connector, grounding wiring used for 
				lightning conductors or similar can be jointed and branched. 
				
				
				Check the number of crimps 
				In our standard range there are tube terminals with one or two 
				holes, straight or angled at 45° and 90°, and terminals with 
				dimensions in accordance with DIN 46235. In addition to these 
				there are through connectors for service and road lighting 
				cables (System 0616) and terminals and connectors for 10 mm˛ 
				Excel cabling. 
				Normally one crimp is needed for up to and including 150 mm˛ and 
				two or three crimps for larger cross-sectional areas. Check the 
				recommended number of crimps (see the pdf file crimping system, 
				below) before crimping. 
				 
				Marking 
				Elpress Copper terminals are marked with a logo, conductor 
				cross-sectional area and the type number for a hexagonal die.
				 
				When crimping is completed with the correct tool, the Elpress 
				dies stamp the insulating sleeve so that all connections can be 
				checked afterwards.  
				Except for the hobby tools, there is a built-in full closure 
				system which ensures that the complete crimping procedure has 
				been performed – a condition for ensuring a professional and 
				high quality job.
