EM253510VO

Terminal Blocks - Headers, Plugs and Sockets are components which have the purpose of allocating signals between different locations, they\'re designed to be connected and disconnected repeatedly without damage. EM253510VO is one of this type, with special features, an application field and a specific working principle.

Description

The EM253510VO is a Type V panel mount PCB 2-position 0.64mm/2.54mm pitch connector, offering a Board-to-board interconnects with screws and standoffs for a mid-density application. It is manufactured by 3M, and meets UL and CSA standards.

Features and Benefits

• Screw lock retention feature which eliminates any accidental loose connection.
• The standoffs allow for adequate layer-to-layer spacing.
• The pins are inserted without the need for tools.
• Electrical load capacity up to 0.5A/Pin.
• UL rated at 250V, 1.5A.

Application Field

EM253510VO Terminal Block Connector has a wide variety of applications, including:

• Signalling circuits
• Sensors
• Process Controls
• Automation
• Data Processing
• Optical communications.

Working Principle

The EM253510VO connector is very easy to assemble, no tools are necessary for mounting. The connection is made through a screw, which locks itself to the terminals after inserting the wire through the frictional zone, creating a tight contact with the conductor.

Once the terminals are connected, a head connection block is screwed in place using a tool. This locks the terminals together to ensure a secure connection and mechanical strength. The head connection assembly is also designed to be easy to remove, so that maintenance can be carried out without damaging the terminals.

Conclusion

The EM253510VO are connectors from 3M’s Terminal Block family, with special features and widely used for signalling circuits, Process Controls, Automation, Data Processing and Optical communications. Its screw and stand off design makes it ideal for mid-density applications, and ensures that the connection is secure and can be safely disconnected and reconnected.
