Product Information

Full details

This guide is for engineers and technicians requiring reliable wire termination solutions. The TruConnect 7.62mm pitch header terminal blocks offer secure, side-entry connections for up to 15A and 300V, simplifying circuit assembly with their right-angle design. A potential consideration is the fixed pin count per model, requiring careful selection for specific project needs.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the pitch of these terminal blocks?

The pitch for these TruConnect terminal blocks is 7.62mm.

What is the maximum current and voltage rating?

These terminal blocks are rated for a maximum of 15A and 300V.

What does 'Right Angle Side Entry Open' mean?

It indicates that the header connector mounts to a PCB at a 90-degree angle, wires enter from the side, and the connection point is open-ended for wire termination.

How many poles does this specific model have?

This specific model (MPN 211866) has 3 poles. Other models with different pole counts are available.

Do these terminal blocks come with mating connectors?

No, these are header terminal blocks and require a separate mating connector designed for a 7.62mm pitch.

Can these be used for high-frequency applications?

While they offer basic connectivity, they are primarily designed for power and general signal applications, not specifically high-frequency circuits.

Troubleshooting

Intermittent connection

Check solder joints for cold joints or bridges. Ensure wires are securely terminated in the mating connector and properly seated.

Overheating during operation

Verify that the current draw does not exceed the 15A rating. Ensure proper wire gauge is used and that connections are clean and tight.

Difficulty inserting wires

Ensure the correct mating connector is being used and that the wire termination (e.g., ferrule) is not too large for the connector's entry point.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Robust construction for reliable connections.
  • Clear 7.62mm pitch for easy wire handling.
  • Suitable for medium-power applications up to 15A.
  • Right-angle and side-entry design optimizes space and accessibility.

Cons

  • Fixed pole count per variant requires precise selection.
  • Open-ended design may require specific termination techniques.
  • Not suitable for very high-voltage or high-current applications beyond its rating.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These header terminal blocks are designed to be soldered onto a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). Ensure proper soldering techniques are used to create a strong and reliable electrical connection. Wires are typically inserted into the open-ended connection points on the mating connector (sold separately) and then secured. Always verify the wire gauge is appropriate for the 15A rating.

Compatibility: This product is a component intended for integration into larger electronic or electrical systems. It is compatible with mating connectors designed for a 7.62mm pitch and suitable wire gauges. Ensure voltage and current requirements of the application do not exceed the block's specifications (300V, 15A).

Care: As a passive electronic component, minimal care is required. Avoid exposure to excessive moisture, corrosive substances, or extreme temperatures outside the operational range. Keep connection points clean to ensure optimal conductivity. Regular inspection for any signs of physical damage or corrosion is recommended, especially in harsh environments.
