Phoenix Contact MKDSN 1,5/ 8-5,08
Overview
The 1729186 is an 8-position, 5.08mm pitch PCB terminal block from the MKDSN 1,5 series designed for wave soldering applications. This low-profile connector uses a screw-driven rising cage clamp mechanism to provide high-contact force and reliable wire termination for field wiring. It supports a wide wire range from 26 AWG to 16 AWG and is rated for a maximum of 400V and 13.5A according to datasheet specifications.
Why Choose This Part
The rising cage clamp principle ensures that the screw does not act directly on the wire, preventing damage to fine-stranded conductors. Its compact footprint and 13.5mm height above the PCB allow for high-density component placement while maintaining a 13.5A current rating. The interlocking side design enables multiple blocks to be combined into custom pole lengths while maintaining the 5.08mm pitch.
