Advantages in design

The WAGO COMPACT connection terminal of the 221 series stands for fast, simple and safe wiring in classic electrical installations in buildings. Simply open the lever, insert the conductor, close the lever. Product managers, design engineers and developers at device manufacturers are increasingly discovering the advantages of this terminal with lever - from component manufacture to equipment production and device connection through to the end product.

With the WAGO 221, manufacturers of electrical devices - i.e. OEMs - rely on a universal and flexible spring connection technology, as this connection terminal connects all types of conductors from 0.14 to 6 qmm; without conductor pre-treatment, simply, quickly and safely. A time and thus further cost advantage also arises in comparison to screw technology and soldering: simply open the lever, insert the conductor, close the lever. This tool-free and thus convenient conductor connection simplifies wiring and the complete device connection of the installer on site. This results in user-friendliness that can have a decisive impact on the purchase of entire products.

International approvals open up a wide range of applications worldwide

The country-specific approvals (e.g. UL approvals, etc.), ship approvals and many other Series 221 approvals permit a wide range of applications. The components and devices with the integrated Series 221 can also be used worldwide.

At a glance:

• Simple handling: Lever open, ladder in, lever closed
• Available as 2-, 3- or 5-wire terminals
• Universal and flexible spring connection technology
• Country-specific approvals, ship approvals and UL approvals

Wire without tools with the particularly compact PCB terminal block with lever for cross-sections up to 1.5 mm².

Connecting small conductor cross-sections in the field is now even more handy! The first particularly compact and tool-free PCB terminal block with lever technology for cross-sections from 0.14 to 1.5 mm² or 26 to 16 AWG ensures simple and fast wiring: the 2601 Series.

Your advantages:

• Worldwide easy and tool-free wiring with lever of small conductor cross-sections from 0.14 to 1.5 mm² (26 to 16 AWG)
• Particularly compact solution with little space requirement on the board
• Direct plugging of solid and stranded conductors with ferrules by Push-in CAGE CLAMP®
• Horizontal or vertical connection to the PCB possible

In particularly confined spaces, the MCS MAXI 16 PCB connector with center locking provides more safety against unintentional disconnection. This locking variant is actuated frontally above the conductor entry. This allows the connector to be placed directly next to other components.
 
The MCS MAXI 16 with push-in CAGE CLAMP® connection safely transmits high currents up to 101 A, for conductor cross-sections up to 25 mm² and is ideal for applications in drive technology, inverters or battery storage systems.
 
Thanks to the lever technology, wiring can be carried out without tools. The MCS MAXI 16 with center locking thus offers an ideal combination of performance, size and convenient actuation force.
 
The system offers both 2- to 6-pin male and female headers for "wire-to-wire" and THT headers with 10.16 mm pitch for "wire-to-board" connections.

Condensation, heavy rainfall, a powerful jet of water: when moisture meets electricity, a short circuit can quickly occur. Grouting is a proven antidote. But reliable moisture protection for terminal blocks can be achieved even faster and easier - with the WAGO Gelbox.

The WAGO Gelbox is a small, compact box that is already filled with silicone-free gel. It is available in six sizes and offers moisture protection for WAGO COMPACT Series 2273 junction box terminal blocks as well as WAGO COMPACT Series 221 terminal blocks - and all in accordance with protection class IPX8. This degree of protection means that the terminals are completely sealed against water and could also be permanently submerged in water.

The WAGO Gelbox is versatile - both in the low voltage and extra-low voltage range. The housing has a compact design. The gel boxes can be easily accommodated in any junction box. Due to the different housing variants, several terminals can be accommodated in one WAGO Gelbox - this provides additional space in the junction box.

We have added the following PCB terminal blocks to the WAGO 250 Series:

W250202             2 pin
W250203             3 pin
W250204             4 pin
W250205             5 pin
W250206             6 pin
W250208             8 pin
W250210             10 pin

The PCB terminal blocks with pushbutton in 3.5 mm pitch have a compact design. Solid and stranded conductors with ferrules can be plugged in directly. The push-button actuation enables fine-stranded conductors to be connected and conductors to be disconnected. Thanks to the 45° conductor entry, convenient and space-saving wiring is possible.

In order to optimize energy consumption, comprehensive energy measurement is necessary. WAGO now has new energy consumption meters in its portfolio for this purpose, which offer numerous advantages.

They use push-in connection technology with levers, making them very easy and time-saving to connect.

The devices have a width of only 72 mm for direct measurement. This saves the user a lot of space in the control cabinet.

In addition to the values for active and reactive energy, the energy meters also record mains frequency as well as current, voltage and power for all phases.

On the large illuminated display, the user can see all energy quality characteristics at a glance.

Safe, tool-free and intuitive handling - this is what the globally self-explanatory lever technology of WAGO PCB terminal blocks and connectors for a wide range of conductor cross-sections offers.

Lever technology is especially ideal for connecting devices in the field.

With the 252 Series, WAGO Kontakttechnik offers a KNX-compatible PCB terminal block that is ideally suited for uninterrupted use in ring circuits, for example.
 
Thanks to PUSH WIRE® technology and an additional plug-in direction from above, flexible wiring is possible with a high level of convenience. Solid conductors can be plugged in immediately without tools.
Wires from 0.14 qmm to 0.5 qmm (26AWG to 20AWG) with a diameter of 0.4 mm to 0.8 mm can be used. The pitch is 3.5 mm, the max. rated current is 2 A.
 
Due to its properties, the series is thus ideally suited for building technology (e.g. fire or motion detectors) as well as for use as a KNX interface and thus in the development of corresponding devices.
