12-Position PCB Terminal Block, Side Entry, 2.54mm Pitch
The 1-282834-2: It uses a screw - rising cage clamp mechanism, accepting 16-30 AWG wire, and is rated for 10 A at 150 V. The green polyamide (PA66) housing is a standard colour for ground or general-purpose terminal blocks in industrial control panels, building automation, and instrumentation. This is an active-production member of the Buchanan series, sourced to order.
Screw-Cage Clamp Termination and Wire Range
The rising cage clamp pulls the wire against a nickel-plated brass clamp plate as the M1.6 screw is tightened to 0.2 Nm (1.7 Lb-In). This termination style handles both solid and stranded wire from 16 AWG down to 30 AWG, covering the typical range for sensor, actuator, and control wiring. The clamp material is brass with nickel plating; the screw is steel, stainless. Contact material is brass with tin plating, adequate for the 10 A rating and typical industrial environments.
This temperature range suits unheated industrial cabinets, outdoor telecom enclosures, and HVAC equipment. The part is ROHS3 Compliant.
