Overview
The datasheet provides detailed information about the Pomona Model B Stack-Up Banana Plug, which is designed for creating jumpers or connections in chassis boxes. The plug can mate with Model #1581, 2854 or standard Banana Jack, and is suited for both cross and vertical stacking configurations.
Materials and Construction
The extension stacking banana plug is made of a beryllium copper spring (QQ-C-533, Alloy 172, Cond. HT) and a brass plug body (QQ-B-626, Alloy 360, Yz hard) with a nickel plate finish (QQ-N-290 class 2, 200/300 microinches). The insulation is molded polypropylene, closely integrated with the plug body and wire. Each plug and corresponding wire are color-matched for easy identification. The wire is 18 AWG with 65 x 36 t.c. stranding and PVC insulation. Markings on the wire include “MODEL B-XX” and “POMONA BXX-” with “XX” representing the cable length.
Ratings and Operating Conditions
The assembly is rated for an operating temperature of up to +55°C (+131°F) and comes with two distinct voltage ratings: 30VAC/60VDC for handheld testing and 5000 WVDC for hands-free testing in a controlled voltage environment. The maximum current capacity is specified at 15 Amperes continuous.
Ordering Information
When ordering, “XX” denotes the cable length with standard options ranging from 4 inches (102 mm) to 72 inches (1829 mm). Custom lengths are available upon request. The color code is followed by a dash and number, with each number corresponding to a specific color (e.g., -0 for Black, 2 for Red). For example, the ordering code “B-72-2” corresponds to a 72-inch red cable. The tolerances for dimensions are indicated, with un-noted tolerances being +/- .010 inches (0.25 mm) and noted dimensions having a tolerance of +/- .005 inches (0.127 mm). All specifications are subject to change without notice.
