Since their inception, CAGE CLAMP and CAGE CLAMP S connections have been routinely tested for their resistance to shock/

vibration in connection with approval tests.

Additionally, WAGO conducts special approx. 90mm
self-resonance behavior tests on clamp-
ing systems, using different terminal block Conductor
fixing
and conductor arrangements. Frequency cycle: 5 – 250Hz
In these tests, a wide frequency band up Cycle time: 20 minutes, logarithmic
to 2000Hz, at different accelerations up Test frequency
to 20g and different amplitudes up to mV conductors Amplitude
20mm, is passed continuously. The figure soldered (at 5 – 16Hz): 20mm (peak-to-peak)
provides an example of a self-resonance
vibration test configuration. Acceleration 10g
(at 16 – 250Hz)
