Wurth Elektronik WR-PHD Series Right Angle Through Hole PCB Socket, 16-Contact, 2 Row, 2.54 mm Pitch Surface 610116249221

The Wurth Elektronik WR-PHD Series Right Angle Through Hole PCB Socket, model 610116249221, is engineered for demanding electronic, industrial, and commercial applications requiring robust board-to-board connectivity. Designed with 16 female contacts arranged in two rows at a 2.54 mm pitch, this socket supports versatile circuit board layouts and ensures reliable electrical performance.

Its right angle orientation streamlines mounting where space is limited and enables clean signal routing between boards. The surface mount and through hole design offer mechanical stability, making it suitable for environments subject to vibration or movement. Polybutylene terephthalate housing provides strong insulation and chemical resistance, ensuring integrity over long operational periods.

Copper contacts with selective gold plating minimize resistance (20 mΩ) and optimize conductivity for high-speed signals. The socket is rated for 12A current and 250V voltage, providing compatibility with power and signal lines in various electronic devices.

Operating reliably from -40°C to 105°C, the WR-PHD socket adapts to both industrial machinery and laboratory electronics exposed to wide temperature fluctuations. Its female contacts are ideal for plug-in header arrangements, facilitating secure and repeated mating up to 25 cycles.

Mounting height of 8.5 mm, board-to-board connection system, and selective gold-plated terminations distinguish this socket for precision assembly, manufacturing automation, and advanced PCB designs. The versatile contact arrangement supports signal integration in instrumentation, control panels, and embedded systems.

Common applications include industrial process controllers, sensor boards, laboratory equipment, commercial electronics, HVAC controls, and automation modules. Engineers and technicians use this socket to achieve reliable interconnections, mechanical robustness, and enhanced electrical performance in demanding environments.
