Phoenix Contact 1770539 is a PLH 16/2-15 PCB terminal block designed for high-current conductor-to-board connections in industrial electronic assemblies. It features a 2-position layout with a 15 mm pitch, push-lock spring connection, and wave solder mounting for secure integration onto printed circuit boards. Rated at 76 A and 1000 V, this green terminal block supports conductor cross sections from 0.75 mm² to 16 mm² solid and up to 25 mm² flexible, making it suitable for power distribution and heavy-duty PCB connection applications. The tool-free lever design allows quick conductor insertion and release, while the defined contact force helps maintain stable electrical contact over long-term operation. With PA insulating material, UL 94 V0 flammability rating, tin-plated copper alloy contacts, and approvals including UL Recognized, IECEE CB Scheme, VDE, and EAC, the 1770539 provides a robust connection solution for industrial control panels, power electronics, drives, and other equipment requiring reliable PCB termination.
What type of component is this?
This is a PCB terminal block from the Phoenix Contact PLH 16 range. It is designed to connect field wiring directly to a printed circuit board using a push-lock spring connection.
What is the nominal current rating?
The nominal current rating is 76 A, making it suitable for high-current PCB connection applications where the surrounding circuit design is appropriately rated.
What is the rated voltage?
The rated voltage is 1000 V, with an 8 kV rated surge voltage for overvoltage categories listed in the product data.
How many positions does this terminal block have?
It has 2 positions, with 2 connections and 2 potentials in a single-level layout.
What connection method does it use?
It uses a push-lock spring connection with a lever principle. This allows conductors to be connected and released without a tool, and also enables push-in connection when the lever is closed.
What conductor sizes can it accept?
It accepts solid conductors from 0.75 mm² to 16 mm², flexible conductors from 0.75 mm² to 25 mm², and AWG/kcmil sizes from 18 to 4. Flexible conductors with ferrules are supported in specific ranges depending on ferrule type.
What stripping length is required for conductors?
The specified conductor stripping length is 18 mm.
How is it mounted to the PCB?
It is intended for wave soldering onto the PCB. The terminal block uses a linear double pin layout with 1.2 mm x 1.2 mm solder pins.
What PCB hole diameter is required?
The PCB design data specifies a hole diameter of 1.6 mm, with a pin spacing of 12.5 mm.
What is the pitch of this terminal block?
The pitch is 15 mm, which provides spacing suitable for higher-current PCB terminal connections.
What are the main dimensions?
The product dimensions are approximately 30.5 mm long, 26.4 mm wide, and 29 mm high. The solder pin length is 4.5 mm.
What material is used for the housing?
The housing is made from PA insulating material in green, with insulating material group I.
What is the flammability rating?
The housing has a UL 94 V0 flammability rating.
What contact material and plating are used?
The contact material is copper alloy, with tin-plated contact and soldering surfaces.
What operating temperature range is specified?
The ambient operating temperature range is -40 °C to 100 °C, depending on current carrying capacity and derating conditions.
What approvals are associated with this terminal block?
Approvals listed for this PCB terminal block include UL Recognized, IECEE CB Scheme, VDE approval, and EAC.
What standards are referenced in the product data?
Referenced standards include IEC 60947-7-4 for electrical and mechanical testing, IEC 60664-1 for clearances and creepage distances, and IEC 60068-2-6 for vibration testing.
What is the country of origin listed for this item?
The product data lists Slovakia as the country of origin for Phoenix Contact 1770539.
