256-612 WAGO Industrial Automation Components

WAGO 256-612 is an automation part with a short circuit breaking rating as per IEC/EN 60664-1, featuring nominal voltages of 500V (III/3), 630V (III/2), and 1000V (II/2) with rated impulse voltages of 6kV for both III/3 and III/2, and a rated surge voltage of 6kV for II/2. It has a rated current of 24A according to IEC/EN standards. Under UL 1059, it has rated voltages of 300V and rated currents of 15A for Use Group B and 10A for Use Group D. CSA approvals mirror the UL ratings with identical voltage and current specifications for Use Groups B and D. This part includes 12 connection points, supports a single connection type across one level, utilizing CAGE CLAMP technology with push-button actuation. It accommodates solid and fine-stranded conductors ranging from 0.08 to 2.5mm2 (28 to 12 AWG), including options for both insulated and uninsulated ferrules. The strip length for connections is specified as 5 to 6mm (0.2 to 0.24 inches), with a conductor connection direction to PCB at 45 degrees and a pole number of 12. Physically, it has a pin spacing of 10/10.16mm (0.394/0.4 inches), dimensions of 122.9mm in width, 22.2mm in height, 17.6mm in depth, and a solder pin length of 4mm. The material composition includes a polyamide (PA66) insulation, chrome-nickel spring steel for the clamping spring, electrolytic copper contacts with tin plating, and it meets the UL94 V0 flammability class. It operates within a temperature range of -60 to +105°C, is RoHS compliant without exemptions, and comes in boxes of 40 pieces with a country of origin marked as CH and a GTIN of 4044918809542.
