234-516 WAGO Industrial Automation Components

WAGO 234-516 is a printed circuit connector with a short circuit breaking rating as per IEC/EN 60664-1. It features nominal voltages of 63V (III/3), 160V (III/2), and 320V (II/2), with a rated impulse voltage of 2.5kV for all categories and a rated surge voltage of 2.5kV for category II/2. The rated current is 6A according to IEC/EN standards, and it has UL and CSA approvals with a rated voltage of 150V and a rated current of 4A for both standards in Use Group B. This connector has 16 connection points and the same number of potentials, with one connection type and level. The connection technology is CAGE CLAMP with a push-button actuation type, accommodating solid and fine-stranded conductors ranging from 0.08 to 0.5mm2 (28 to 20 AWG), and a strip length of 5 to 6mm. The conductor connection direction to the PCB is 90 degrees, and it has a pole number of 16. Physical specifications include a pin spacing of 2.54mm, dimensions of 42.84mm in width, 18mm in height, 14mm height from the surface, and 14.4mm in depth, with a solder pin length of 4mm. The PCB contact is through-hole technology (THT) with an in-line solder pin arrangement. It is made from Polyamide (PA66) in orange color, with a flammability class of V0 and uses Chrome-Nickel spring steel for the clamping spring and Electrolytic Copper with tin plating for contacts. It operates within a temperature range of -60 to +105°C, weighs 8.1g, and comes in a box of 100 pieces with a country of origin CH and is RoHS compliant without exemptions.
