BL 3 35 Z

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Overview

The Fischer Elektronik BL 3 35 Z is a single-row PCB receptacle featuring 36 positions with a 2.54 mm pitch spacing. It utilizes stamped contact springs designed as fork contacts, allowing for flexible configuration to accommodate any required number of contacts. The connector supports through-hole mounting and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +200°C, with a short-term tolerance of 260°C for 10 seconds. It meets UL 94 V-0 flammability standards and features tin-plated contacts.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Feature Summary

• Stamped contact spring design functioning as a fork contact
• Separable pitch of 0.635 mm enabling flexible contact configuration
• High thermal stability supporting operation up to 200°C
• UL 94 V-0 rated insulation material for safety compliance

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Applications

• Board-to-board interconnections
• Electronic assemblies requiring high thermal resistance
• Customizable connector configurations

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Procurement Notes

Verify the exact pin count against the specific model suffix, as the BL 3 series allows for variable contact numbers due to its separable pitch design. Confirm that the tin plating specification aligns with your conductivity and corrosion resistance requirements. Ensure the operating temperature range of -40°C to +200°C fits your environmental conditions. Check for UL 94 V-0 certification if flame retardancy is mandatory for your application.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Selection Notes

Select this component when a customizable header with a 2.54 mm pitch is needed but the base contact technology relies on a 0.635 mm separable unit. Consider the high nominal current capacity and voltage ratings typical of the BL 3 series. Evaluate the through-hole mounting style against space constraints. The fork contact design offers flexibility in contact arrangement, making it suitable for non-standard pin counts.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Part Context

This part belongs to the Fischer Elektronik BL 3 series, which specializes in stamped contact springs. Unlike fixed-pin headers, these connectors allow users to configure the exact number of contacts by separating the 0.635 mm pitch units. This series is distinct from the SL or BL 5 lines, focusing on adaptable board-to-board solutions with robust thermal and electrical performance characteristics.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes are limited due to the unique separable pitch design. Generic 2.54 mm headers may not offer the same configurability or thermal rating. Verify compatibility with mating pins before replacement. No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available for this specific configuration.
