Re: pic: 1939's Pneumatic Manifold with Hat
Please excuse my ignorance. I am not a wiring person.
What are those little orange insulators on your small wires, and why do you use them? |

http://www.ctr-electronics.com/ferrule-20-awg.html They also have 16 and 18 AWG version. We bought some last year at the suggestion of our electrical mentor. They're great for putting stranded wires in the Weidmuller connectors and make it really easy to tell that your wires are fully seated. |

Those are also called "Ferrules" or "End Connectors" and make your wiring MUCH more clean and reliable.
You can get them for free using your AutomationDirect voucher. Ferrules (aka End Connectors) AutomationDirect Voucher Instructions You'll need a good set of ferrule crimpers too. |
