OSTVJ026151

Terminal Blocks - Wire to Board are a type of interconnection device used for making electrical connections for wires. They can provide insulation, strain relief and protection for the wires that they connect. The OSTVJ026151 is a type of Wire to Board terminal block specifically designed as a breakout interconnect solution for splicing individual wires to a mid-board trace.

The OSTVJ026151 terminal block has two main components. The first is a termination, or housing, which is a one piece CPA conformal plastic housing with four thru-holes to accommodate #20AWG to #28AWG stranded wire. The housing covers the conductors and bends the copper wires together in their respective wire-to-board connection position. The other component is an insulation/strain relief system, which is an extruded polyamide (PA) insulation sleeve that fits over the termination housing and provides insulation and strain relief.

The OSTVJ026151 terminal block is ideal for a wide range of applications including power cables and data cables, connecting circuit boards, etc. The flexible housing offers an easy installation process and allows for reliable wire-to-board connections. In addition, the insulation sleeve provides additional protection for the connections from electrical interference. The housing offers reliable electrical connections, strong mechanical performance and a wide range of current carrying capacity, from 2A to 20A.

The working principle of the OSTVJ026151 terminal block is based on one simple idea: When the wire is connected to the terminal block, the strain relief system attaches to the wire and locks it in place, which creates a secure connection between the wire and the terminal block. This connection is supported by the conical plastic housing that effectively locks the conductors together and holds them in place in the strain relief system.

Overall, the OSTVJ026151 terminal block is designed for reliable wire-to-board connections. It offers excellent electrical performance, strain relief and protection against electrical interference. The easy installation process and wide range of current carrying capacity make it suitable for a multitude of applications.
