BL5.08/6-180 – WEIDMULLER

The Weidmuller BL5.08/6-180 is a 6-pole printed circuit board (PCB) terminal block connector featuring a 5.08 mm (0.2 inch) pin spacing. This component provides a wire-to-board connection utilizing a screw clamp termination method, accommodating solid or stranded conductors within a specified gauge range, typically 26-14 AWG, dependent on applicable standards. The /180 designation indicates a 180-degree wire entry angle relative to the PCB mounting surface, facilitating horizontal wire routing. Constructed from a flame-retardant polyamide (PA) insulating material, the BL5.08/6-180 exhibits a voltage rating of 300V as per UL standards and a current rating of 15A, also UL compliant. The connector is designed for through-hole mounting on the PCB and is typically supplied in a light beige (RAL 7035) color. Precise torque specifications for the screw terminals must be observed during installation to ensure reliable electrical contact and prevent damage to the connector.
