Terminal Strip for Panel-Mount Power Distribution
The Molex Eurostyle 39100 391001802 is a 2-circuit enclosed barrier terminal strip in the 39100 series, designed for chassis or panel-mounted power distribution. It carries a 0.315" (8.00mm) pitch and is rated 20A at 600V, with a wire range of 12-22 AWG. The white polyamide (PA66) housing holds UL94 V-0 flammability rating, and the top screw termination with a closed bottom makes it a straightforward field-wiring block for industrial control panels, HVAC equipment, or power distribution junction boxes.
The 0.315" (8.00mm) pitch gives enough terminal-to-terminal spacing to handle the 600V rating without creepage concerns in a panel environment — you can run adjacent circuits at line voltage without needing oversized standoffs. The 20A per-circuit rating is the continuous current limit through the screw clamp and the PA66 insulator; derate if the ambient inside the enclosure approaches the 105°C upper end of the operating range. The 12-22 AWG wire range means it accepts solid or stranded copper from a 12 AWG feeder down to a 22 AWG control signal — the screw torque should be set per the terminal screw material (steel with zinc finish) to avoid stripping the threads in the nylon housing.
Two Circuits, Four Wire Entries — the Routing Detail
With 2 circuits and 4 wire entries, each circuit has two screw terminals — one for the incoming wire and one for the outgoing or daisy-chain connection. The enclosed barrier type means the screws are recessed inside the housing walls, which prevents accidental shorting from a loose conductor or tool. The closed bottom termination means the wire enters from the top only; the bottom of the strip is a solid wall, so it mounts flush to the panel without exposed terminations underneath.
The 391001802 (2 circuits) shares all key specs with the 391001804 (4 circuits) — same 0.315" (8.00mm) pitch, same 20A at 600V rating, same white PA66 housing, same chassis/panel mount, and same 12-22 AWG wire range. The only selection-relevant difference is the circuit count: the 391001802 fits a BOM line needing exactly two isolated circuits, while the 391001804 covers four. Both use the same screw terminal hardware and mounting footprint per circuit, so a panel designed for the 4-circuit version can accept the 2-circuit strip in a smaller cutout — but the mounting hole pattern differs because the overall length scales with circuit count.
