PowerElements

angled, full pin

population, with and

without threads

As stated in its name, PowerElements can be used

anywhere where you are dealing with “power”

sourcing capabilities, namely high current on the

PCB.

Be it “wire-to-board” sourcing and distribution in

PCB based high current applications, or assembly,

component connection and ﬁxation such as screw

locking (e.g. midi or mega fuses), relays with screw

connection, conductor rail etc. on the PCBs.

For this we also provide additional insulation bodies

e.g. twist protection, to avoid shorts and contact on

the cable side of the connections such as cable lugs.

Also mechanical challenges, such as the PCB

connection inside a housing, in the interior or even with

a second PCB can be realised using PowerElements.

The two piece PowerElement offers a special feature

– it is press ﬁtted from both sides of the PCB. The

bearing surface on either side provide protection to

the PCB against mechanical stress during assembly

in the installation space.

Here, there are no limits to the variety of PowerEle-

ments connection options.

Whether it’s the headless screw, the thread nut

as well as through holes or blind holes, whether

perpendicular or angled, even the installation height,

connection surface and thread or drill dimension can

be selected and combined without restriction.

PowerElements in press-ﬁt technology and SMD

solder technology are available for processing. SMD

PowerElements are delivered blister packed for fully

automated assembly.
