Connectors can either be free-hanging or mounted onto a printed circuit board (PCB). Many connectors use screws to secure them to the board, but some opt for a plug-in hinge. The former provide a more secure connection than the latter, but take longer to install. As such, it\'s important to consider which connection type is suitable for individual applications. 1602 Series terminal blocks have been designed specifically for use in industrial applications, offering both main power and signal transfer.

Manufactured by Molex, the 1602 Series offers a range of terminal blocks in modular design, offering connectors with 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, and 12 poles for power and signal transfer. The series is RoHS compliant, complements the 1531 and 1603 Series, and designed to meet the highest quality standards. These modular connectors are available in single-level, double-level, and angle-tower designs. The units allow users to strip their own wires without the need for specialized tools and provide a secure connection preventing vibrations and unintentional de-mounting.

1602 Series terminal blocks work with a plug-in connector mechanism, allowing users to quickly and easily install wiring without any solder or tools. These highly reliable connectors feature multiple electrical levels (1/2, 3/4, and 5/6 Levels) and feature a ratchet and locking system, which provides additional strain relief for the connection by securing it in place. This prevents any unintentional movement in the wires and ensures the connection is reliable and secure.

As well as terminal blocks, the 1602 Series also includes headers, plugs, and sockets. The headers are available in metric connector types featuring 2.0 to 5.08 mm of pitch, with 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12+ circuits available. The connectors come in UL94V-0 rated polyamide with a high temperature range of -20°C to +105°C. The plugs and sockets are designed to mate with the headers and provide the connection between the terminal block and mating connector. This makes them ideal for applications where space is at a premium, and provides a secure connection while ensuring wires are firmly held in place.

In conclusion, the 1602 Series terminal blocks provide a reliable, secure connection for applications where signal and power transfer are key. The series is RoHS compliant and designed to meet the highest quality standards, making them suitable for industrial and commercial applications. The modular design of the connectors allows users to quickly and easily install the components, while their low-profile design makes them ideal for confined spaces. The headers, plugs, and sockets further add to the versatility of the series, providing users with the ability to quickly and easily configure the components to fit their specific application.
