Original Press Release:
New Interlocking Rising Clamp Vertical PCB Connectors from Camden Electronics
Camden Electronics has launched a new range of interlocking vertical PCB connectors that feature rising clamp terminals to provide secure connection of cables.
The new vertical terminal blocks are available in two sizes offering 6.35mm (l/4inch) pitch (CTB04VY) and 9.52mm (3/8inch) pitch (CTB04VZ). Both sizes are available with two or three poles and units interlock allowing terminal blocks to built up to any length. The insulating body is moulded in green UL94VO flame retardant PA68.
Specifications include 32A nominal current, 450 or 750V rating (6.35 and 9.52mm pitch respectively), combination head M3 cable screw and zinc-plated copper rising clamp with nickel/tin-plated zinc-copper contacts. Both 6.35 and 9.52mm sizes accept up to 4mm² section cable (10 to 30AWG) and require PCB mounting holes of 1.3mm diameter. Insulation resistance is >10Mohm with dielectric strength of 2500V AC for 6.35mm pitch terminals and 3000V AC for 9.52mm pitch versions. Maximum operating temperature is 125°C.
With VDE, IMQ and UL approvals pending, Camden Electronics' new CTB04VY/Z connectors offer a convenient method of creating a custom length PCB terminal block for secure cable connection in a wide variety of electrical installations and lighting equipment applications.
