Weidmuller's New PCB Connectors Offer Design Freedom
RICHMOND, VA (April 17, 2009) - Weidmuller announces an extension to their line of printed circuit board connectors in 3.81mm pitch. The new 3.81mm connectors are designed to provide the maximum degree of freedom for the design of signal terminations on the printed circuit board.
The enhanced 3.81mm connector series complement Weidmuller's well-established 3.50mm range and include enhancements in compatibility, performance and efficiency. The connectors are 100% interchangeable to the industry standard and suitable for all applications including wire-to-board, board-to-wire, wire-to-wire and board-to-board. Their compact size and increased current carrying capacity allows users to use less space and connect more power at a printed circuit board.
The 3.81mm series also offers users a range of features designed to save on installation time and reduce costs. Plugs are available with Push-In clamping technology to reduce wiring time up to 70% over traditional screw terminations. The connectors are also available with optional release levers to ensure the wires are not pulled out inadvertently when the connector is unplugged. This feature greatly reduces the risk of damage to the wire and ensures the integrity of the installation. For improved efficiency, the 3.81mm connectors are available in high temperature material (Liquid Crystal Polymer UL 94 V-0) for reflow soldering applications, and tape-on-reel packaging for automated pick and place machines.
This new series is available in a wide range of poles, from 2 to 16, in standard configurations and several colors including black, orange and green. All 3.81mm connectors are RoHS compliant and have UL approval.
