231-180/003-000 WAGO Industrial Automation Components

WAGO 231-180/003-000 is a connector part of the MCS - MULTI CONNECTION SYSTEM, designed without breaking capacity as per DIN EN 61984, indicating it should not be connected or disconnected under load or when live. It adheres to IEC/EN 60664-1 standards, with nominal voltages of 250V (III/3), 320V (III/2), and 630V (II/2), all with a rated impulse voltage of 4kV. The rated current is 16A. Under UL 1059 and UL 1977, it has a rated voltage of 300V for Use Group B and D with respective currents of 15A and 10A, and a 600V rating with a 15A current under UL 1977. CSA approvals mirror the UL ratings for Use Groups B and D. This connector features 20 potentials, a single connection type across one level, and a 20 pole number. Physically, it has a 5mm pin spacing, dimensions of 103.2mm x 25.9mm x 8.4mm, and offers variable coding and anti-rotation protection. The male connector/plug is designed for front-entry rail-mount terminal blocks, without mismating or plugging loss of pin spacing protection, and lacks locking features. Constructed from gray Polyamide (PA66) with a V0 flammability class, it uses electrolytic copper with tin plating for contacts. It operates within a -60 to +100°C temperature range, weighs 11.3g, and is RoHS compliant without exemptions. Packaged in boxes of 50, it is produced in Poland with a GTIN of 4044918905510 and a customs tariff number of 85366930000.
