Product details

16-position SMT header with locking ramp

It uses a 1.50 mm pitch and a shrouded 4-wall design with a locking ramp that provides positive retention against vibration. Rated 2 A per contact at 100 V, with a mated stack height of 9.4 mm, this header suits signal-level interconnects in space-constrained, moderate-vibration environments.

Mates with ZE series crimp housings

This header mates with JST ZE series crimp-style receptacle housings (e.g., ZE-xxP-2R) using the appropriate crimp terminals. The 1.50 mm pitch and single-row layout are consistent across the ZE series, so the 16-position header mates with the corresponding 16-circuit receptacle.

Frequently asked questions

Is BM16B-ZESS-TBT(LF)(SN) RoHS compliant?

Yes, the (LF)(SN) suffix indicates RoHS compliance and tin-plated contacts.

What is the mating connector for BM16B-ZESS-TBT(LF)(SN)?

It mates with JST ZE series crimp receptacle housings, such as the ZE-16P-2R, using the appropriate crimp terminals. The locking ramp on the header engages with the housing latch.
