Overview
The Schlegel Elektrokontakt BL5 is a Faston terminal lampholder (SKU: BL5) designed for industrial and commercial lighting applications requiring reliable electrical connections. This lampholder features 2.8 x 0.8 mm Faston terminals for secure power distribution and a T55K base for compatibility with standard lighting fixtures. Certified to Class II protective insulation (IEC/EN 60947-5-1), it ensures safe operation in control panels, machinery, and lighting systems.
Key electrical specifications include a rated insulation voltage (Ui) of 300V, thermal continuous current (Ith) of 16A, and rated operating voltages of 240V AC (AC15) and 250V/24V DC (DC13). The BL5 supports operating currents of 3A (AC15) and 0.2A/2A (DC13), with a mechanical lifetime of 1 million switching cycles. An integrated 3mm LED (24V AC/DC, 11mA) provides visual status indication, operating at 24V with a maximum current of 11mA.
This German-made component (SKU: BL5) is ideal for applications requiring positive opening contacts (NC) per EN 60947-5-1, such as emergency lighting systems, control panels, and industrial machinery. Its compact design and robust construction ensure reliable performance in demanding environments. The BL5 lampholder is distributed by Gross Automation and manufactured by Schlegel Elektrokontakt, a trusted name in industrial electrical components since 1956.
