News 30 August 2024
The WAGO MULTI CONNECTION SYSTEM Continues to Grow

In 2017, WAGO introduced the tool-free PCB connector with lever technology for conductor cross-sections up to 25 mm², using the Push-in CAGE CLAMP®. This made intuitive connections in factories and field applications possible for the first time. Since then, the range of available conductor cross-sections with Push-in CAGE CLAMP® and levers has been significantly expanded – WAGO now offers connectors for cross-sections ranging from 0.2 to 25 mm².

Your Benefits:

  • Lever operation for tool-free wiring by hand

  • 1-conductor male connector for flying leads

  • High-performance 1-conductor female connector for 3-phase mains connection

1-Conductor Male Header and 1-Conductor Female Connector with Tool-Free Lever Technology

To provide a comprehensive portfolio of PCB connectors with this tool-free connection technology, WAGO continuously enhances the MULTI CONNECTION SYSTEM. New additions include 1-conductor male headers with levers featuring a pin spacing of 5 mm, as well as 1-conductor female connectors with levers with a pin spacing of 7.5 mm. Solid and fine-stranded conductors with ferrules can be directly inserted thanks to the Push-in CAGE CLAMP® technology. Available are the male headers and female connectors with 100% protection against mismating and the “Classic” interface.

Wiring 1-Conductor Male Header with Levers, 5 mm Pin Spacing

The 1-conductor MCS MIDI Male Header (2231 and 2721 Series) allows for tool-free and intuitive wiring of board-to-wire and wire-to-wire connections, thanks to its lever technology. Designed with a 5 mm pin spacing, it accommodates conductors with cross-sections ranging from 0.2 to 2.5 mm². For added convenience, especially in field connections, the male header can be easily removed and wired by hand without the need for tools. This is particularly advantageous in scenarios where access to the wiring location is difficult or constrained. The 1-conductor MCS MIDI Male Header is ideal for applications requiring a touch-protected device output with a THT female header for either board-to-wire or wire-to-wire connections.

Tool-Free MCS MIDI PCB Connector, 7.5 mm Pin Spacing

With the new 1-conductor MCS MIDI Female Connector (2232 and 2722 Series) featuring 7.5 mm pin spacing, 3-phase power supply connections for devices operating at voltages up to 500 V (IEC) are now achievable, as well as 600 V in accordance with UL 1059, supporting a rated current of 20 A for international markets. The 1-conductor female connectors are equipped with levers for intuitive and tool-free field connections. MCS MIDI stands out with a combination of high-performance, compact design and convenient lever operation, allowing for easy wiring by hand.

The tool-free PCB connector with a pin spacing of 7.5 mm is the ideal complement to the larger MAXI 6 and MAXI 16 Series and offers a cost-effective alternative for devices with lower power requirements and compact designs. The MCS MIDI is suitable for conductor cross-sections up to 4 mm² with fine-stranded conductors. Conductors with ferrules or insulation can be accommodated up to 2.5 mm². With the MCS MIDI featuring levers and a pin spacing of 7.5 mm, the power connection for devices across a wide performance range can now be established with uniform, tool-free handling.
