Buchanan 284539-5: 5-Position Right-Angle Shrouded Header
The 284539-5 is a 5-position, single-level header from TE's Buchanan series, with a 3.50mm pitch and right-angle orientation — a common footprint for terminal block interfaces on PLCs, I/O modules, and industrial control boards. Rated 11 A at 300 V, with a -40°C to 110°C operating range and a UL94 V-0 polyamide housing, it handles moderate power in environments where flame retardance and thermal cycling matter.
Pitch, Positions, and PCB Fit
The 0.138" (3.50mm) pitch and 5 positions define the PCB layout — the through-hole solder tails are 0.134" (3.40mm) long, and the insulation height above the board is 0.285" (7.25mm).
Current, Voltage, and Material Ratings
The polyamide 6/6 housing is rated UL94 V-0, and the operating temperature spans -40°C to 110°C, covering most industrial cabinet and control panel conditions.
Mating and Mounting Details
This right-angle header mates with Buchanan plug connectors of the same 3.50mm pitch — the mating flange on the header provides a locking point for screw-flange or latch-type plugs, improving vibration resistance in the mated pair.
