BLM 1 SMD 8 Z

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Overview

The BLM 1 SMD 8 Z is an 8-position surface mount header connector manufactured by Fischer Elektronik. It features a 0.050-inch (1.27 mm) pitch and is designed for single-row applications. The unit utilizes tin-plated contacts to ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance. The insulating body is constructed from PA 4.6 GF material, providing structural integrity and thermal stability. The component supports a nominal voltage of 125 V AC with a test voltage rating of 500 V. It operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +163°C, withstanding soldering conditions at 260°C for 10 seconds.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix matches the required pin count and termination style. Confirm that the PA 4.6 GF insulating material meets your environmental compliance requirements. Ensure the 1.27 mm pitch aligns with your PCB footprint design. Check compatibility with mating male headers from the SLM or SLV series before finalizing procurement decisions.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Selection Notes

Select this component when a low-profile surface mount solution is required for 8-position connections. The 1.27 mm pitch offers a balance between density and spacing. Consider the thermal endurance up to 163°C for high-temperature environments. Verify that the straight orientation fits within your mechanical enclosure constraints.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Part Context

This part belongs to the BLM 1 SMD family of female headers from Fischer Elektronik. These connectors are characterized by wide isolation bodies suitable for mating with male headers. The series includes various pin counts ranging from 4 to 20 positions, all sharing similar mounting and electrical characteristics.

Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Direct replacement requires matching the 1.27 mm pitch, 8-position count, and surface mount orientation.
