AW140-EG-Z06F

Overview

The AW140-EG-Z06F is a 6-position connector header from the AW140 series, manufactured by Assmann WSW Components. It features a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pin spacing and is designed for through-hole mounting on printed circuit boards. The component operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C and supports a voltage rating of 250V AC/DC with a current capacity of 3A per contact. The housing is constructed from black polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), providing robust insulation and mechanical stability for board-to-board interconnections.

Feature Summary

• Through-hole mounting configuration for secure PCB attachment
• Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) housing material for thermal stability
• Standard 2.54 mm pitch for broad compatibility

Applications

• Board-to-board interconnection systems
• Industrial control unit signal routing
• General electronic equipment internal wiring

Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific suffix 'Z' aligns with the required orientation or variant specifications for your design. Confirm that the PBT housing material meets the thermal requirements of your operating environment. Ensure the through-hole footprint matches the target PCB layout dimensions precisely before finalizing procurement orders.

Selection Notes

Select this model when a low-profile, 6-pin through-header is required for standard 2.54mm pitch applications. It is suitable for designs needing reliable electrical isolation at 250V. Consider the 3A current rating per contact to ensure adequate power handling for the intended signal or power lines without overheating during continuous operation.

Part Context

This component belongs to the AW140 series of straight pin headers. The series offers various position counts and termination styles, all sharing the same 2.54mm pitch and PBT housing characteristics. This specific 6-position variant provides a compact solution for multi-signal connections in space-constrained electronic assemblies requiring durable through-hole construction.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes must maintain the 6-position count, 2.54mm pitch, and through-hole termination. Verify that alternative manufacturers offer identical PBT housing materials and matching 250V/3A ratings to ensure functional equivalence in existing circuit designs.
