FP 2.5-5.08-00F-XX Product Diagram
It retains all the core performance features of its counterpart—including a 18A/300V rating, 30–12 AWG wire range, brass clamp cage, and UL94 V-0 PA66 insulation—while introducing flexible length options: L+9.80mm and L+5.08mm. This dimensional adaptability makes it ideal for systems where standard terminal block lengths do not fit, such as custom control cabinets, modular electronics, or retrofitted equipment. With a 5.08mm center space and -40℃ to 105℃ temperature range, it balances compatibility with customization, ensuring reliable connections in unique layouts.
Flexible Length Options: Offers two extended length variants—L+9.80mm and L+5.08mm—where L is the base length (calculated as L = 5.08mm × Poles). This allows it to fit into non-standard enclosures (e.g., retrofitted industrial machines or custom medical devices) where space is irregular.
Precision Tolerances: Length dimensions have tight tolerances (e.g., ±0.50mm), ensuring consistency across multiple terminals in a single system. This is critical for modular designs where components must align perfectly.
18A Current Handling: Matches the FP 2.5-5.08-00F-XX’s current capacity, supporting medium-power devices like small motors, sensors, and medical equipment.
Brass Clamp Cage: Maintains secure wire clamping, resisting vibration and preventing loose connections. This feature is especially valuable in mobile equipment (e.g., portable diagnostic tools) that experiences movement.
UL94 V-0 Insulation: PA66 material is flame-retardant and chemical-resistant, meeting safety standards for industrial and medical use.
M3 Steel Screws: Require 5 lbf·in of torque for installation, offering rust resistance and tensile strength to maintain connections over time.
30–12 AWG Wire Range: Accommodates both thin signal wires and thicker power wires, eliminating the need for multiple terminal types.
Standard Center Space: The 5.08mm pitch aligns with standard PCB and panel layouts, making it compatible with existing drilling patterns (even in custom systems).
Retrofitting: Used to upgrade older industrial machines (e.g., legacy CNC equipment) where original terminal blocks are obsolete. The flexible length fits into existing enclosures without modifying the cabinet.
Custom Control Cabinets: Ideal for tailor-made control panels (e.g., for specialized manufacturing processes) where space is allocated based on unique component layouts.
Modular Electronics: Integrates into modular systems (e.g., plug-and-play sensor modules or portable test kits) where terminal length must match other modular components.
Custom medical devices (e.g., portable ultrasound machines) that require specific length terminals to fit into slim casings.
Industrial robotics with compact joint modules, where space for wiring is limited and irregular.
Renewable energy micro-inverters (e.g., small-scale solar systems) with custom enclosures designed for specific installation locations.
The "F" stands for "flexible length," indicating that the terminal block offers extended length options (L+9.80mm and L+5.08mm) beyond the standard FP 2.5-5.08-00F-XX’s fixed length.
Measure the available space in your equipment:
Choose L+5.08mm if you need a slight extension beyond the base length (e.g., to avoid overlapping with adjacent components).
Choose L+9.80mm for larger gaps (e.g., retrofitted cabinets with extra space between terminals).
