The 2363638-2: It's built for environments where dust and water spray are a concern — the IP66 rating means it's dust-tight and protected against water jets, so it can live on the outside of an enclosure or in a washdown zone without a separate boot. The black PBT housing carries four tin-plated copper alloy contacts, each rated 5 A at 250 V, and accepts 18-20 AWG stranded wire directly — no crimp tool needed, just strip and push in.
Poke-In Termination: What It Means for Assembly
Poke-in termination accepts 18-20 AWG stranded wire. Strip and push in — no crimp tool required.
Sealing and Environment
IP66 is the headline rating here. It's not submersible like IP67, but it handles hose-down cleaning and rain. The -40°C to 90°C operating range means it can sit in an unheated cabinet or near a motor housing without derating.
Mating and Pinout
This is a receptacle that mounts on the PCB and accepts a cable-side plug (not included). The 4 positions are arranged in a single row. The pinout is defined by the PCB layout — no keying or polarization beyond the housing geometry. Confirm the mating plug's pitch and position count against the board footprint before ordering. The poke-in contacts are on the cable side; the PCB side has through-hole solder tails.
