BL 5 14

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Overview

The BL 5 14 is a PCB receptacle from the Fischer Elektronik BL 5 series, designed for board-to-board connections. It features a straight through-hole mounting configuration with a 2.54 mm (0.100 inch) pitch. The connector accommodates 14 contacts arranged in a single row. Contacts are constructed from CuSn alloy and plated with tin, while the insulator utilizes polysulfone glass-filled material. The unit supports a nominal voltage of 125VAC and a current rating of 3A. Operating temperatures range from -40°C to 160°C.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering number, such as 68F1103, against your bill of materials to ensure compatibility. Confirm that the tin-plated contact variant matches your design requirements, as other versions may feature different plating or configurations within the same series. Check datasheet specifications for mechanical dimensions and thermal limits before finalizing procurement.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Selection Notes

Select this component when a 14-position straight header with 2.54 mm pitch is required. Ensure the application environment stays within the -40°C to 160°C temperature range. Consider the 3A current rating and 125VAC voltage limit during circuit design. Verify that the through-hole mounting style fits the PCB layout constraints.
