1967168

Overview

The Phoenix Contact 1967168 is a pluggable PCB connector from the MSTB 2,5/ 2-ST-5,08 GY RDB series. It features a nominal cross-section of 2.5 mm² and a pitch of 5.08 mm. The component has two positions with a gray housing and tin-plated contact surfaces. Electrical ratings include a nominal current of 12 A, a rated voltage (III/2) of 320 V, and a rated surge voltage (III/3) of 4 kV. The contact resistance is specified at 1.3 mΩ.

Feature Summary

• Pluggable terminal block design for secure PCB mounting
• Tin-plated contacts ensure reliable electrical connection
• Gray housing provides visual identification

Applications

• Industrial control panel wiring
• Automation system interconnections
• Device connector applications

Procurement Notes

Verify the complete part number including suffixes such as 'RDB' to ensure correct configuration. Confirm that the nominal current and voltage ratings align with the specific circuit requirements. Check for RoHS and REACH compliance documentation if required by project specifications. Ensure compatibility with mating headers or plug-in components from the same product family.

Selection Notes

Select this component based on the 5.08 mm pitch requirement and 2.5 mm² wire capacity. The 12 A current rating suits moderate power distribution tasks. Verify that the 320 V rated voltage meets insulation standards for the intended environment. Consider the tin contact surface for general-purpose applications where high corrosion resistance is not critical.
