Terminal Blocks Adapt To Reflow Processes

Advancements in design processes are said to be responsible for the 236 series terminal blocks' ability to adapt to the solder reflow process. In particular, the series employs an optimized pin length and high-temperature resistant plastic for the insulating housing. The connectors also employ the company's CAGE CLAMP spring pressure connection technology that is said to reduce wiring and installation time by up to 60%. They are available in 2- to 6-pole configurations with a 5-mm pin spacing and support conductor sizes from AWG12 to 28. Standard packaging and pick-and-place configurations are also available. Pricing starts at $0.25 per pole. WAGO CORP., Germantown, WI. (800) 346-7245.
