A woman she might browsing a shop for days, so to decide of which skirt to buy. :)
When a Metrology enthusiast performs browsing, other than visuals, he should also review and compare the datasheet.
Staubli 22.1053 4mm male banana for PCB installation, it appearance this is extremely similar to Schuetzinger FK1210 AU.
Within Germany, both products they are similarly priced.
But if you check contact resistance specification:
Staubli 22.1053 = 0.3 Milli-Ohm
Schuetzinger FK1210 AU = 2.0 Milli-Ohm
Schuetzinger this does not have sales network in Greece.
And I were forced asking AI, of what is major market focus of Schuetzinger ?
The answer: High power applications and educational institutes.
This comparison has nothing to do with products advertising.
For several years I am trying to unite in a sense, European production of goods with European consumers.
So far all three German brands, with similar products portfolio, they act as stubborn and anti-social.
While Staubli, it did once an offering of samples to me, but after direct contact with the Greek authorized distributor.
April of 2026, were signed the latest Greek + France Alliance.
Unfortunately from the side of France, there is no industries producing any electrical metrology components / metal parts.
And here comes a practical tip :
If you own a FLUKE 8846A or similar.
You must use the rear banana inputs, for inspecting or correcting alignment, when you using 4W SHORT PCB this including Staubli 22.1053
Additionally you will need a number of two miniature Polygon Wrench.
Start by center in position and tighten Input Hi banana.
Second step, center in position and tighten Sense Lo banana.
Third step, center in position and tighten Input Lo banana.
Fourth step, center in position and tighten Sense Hi banana.
This work needs two steps, first you install a miniature Polygon Wrench over the front Staubli 22.1053 nut.
Push in the SHORT in to the back inputs, gently tighten the back nut for the Staubli 22.1053
Remove the SHORT ..
Repeat this process for all three bananas.
First Staubli 22.1053, this is considered as a guide, this should be tighten first, this does not need alignment.
Now this 4W sort with alignment, this is safe to plug in at the Front 8846A inputs, which are mechanically sensitive, due the FLUKE patented split banana terminals.
