The Molex 387207216 is the 16-circuit member of the Beau 38720 series — a single-row dual-wall barrier block rated 15 A per circuit at 300 V, accepting 14–22 AWG conductors.
Top termination is screws with nickel-plated brass hardware; bottom termination is a through-hole PC pin that plugs into the PCB — the block straddles the panel boundary, terminating field wire on the screw side while the pin side lands on the board. Insulation is thermoplastic rated UL94 V-0; operating range spans -40°C to 100°C, so the block handles both cold-start cabinet environments and warm-duty zones without a separate heater element. Current rating is stated per circuit — the 15 A ceiling applies to each of the 16 independent conductor paths independently, so the block can carry 15 A through every circuit simultaneously if the board thermal budget allows.
The 16 wire entries map directly to 16 independent circuits — a designer matching a 16-sensor array or a 16-branch low-voltage distribution run can land every conductor on one block without chaining jumpers.
