Weidmüller LL 5.08/11/90 3.2SN OR BX PCB Terminal Block
The Weidmüller LL 5.08/11/90 3.2SN OR BX PCB terminal block is built for industrial board-level applications where a slightly expanded pole count can improve wiring structure, terminal grouping, and overall device organization. In many automation and control products, an 11-pole block is chosen because it gives designers one extra position beyond a standard 10-pole layout, which can be helpful for grounding, spare capacity, or dedicated control functions.
Product Overview
The Weidmüller LL 5.08/11/90 3.2SN OR BX is a PCB terminal block with 11 poles, a 5.08 mm pitch, and a 90-degree conductor outlet. It includes 3.2 mm tinned solder pins, an orange housing, and a clamping yoke screw connection. This format is appropriate for industrial electronics where direct and durable wire termination onto the PCB is part of the design strategy.
Searches for the Weidmüller LL 5.08/11/90 3.2SN OR BX PCB terminal block commonly reflect needs such as an 11-pole PCB terminal, a right-angle 5.08 mm board terminal, or a Weidmüller industrial screw-clamp terminal for control assemblies.

Why 11 Poles Can Improve the Design
The 11-pole layout offers useful flexibility for boards that need just one additional connection point beyond a standard 10-pole block. That extra pole can support grounding, a common reference line, a spare connection, or a functional addition that avoids moving to a significantly larger terminal. The Weidmüller LL 5.08/11/90 3.2SN OR BX terminal block therefore helps designers match the terminal exactly to the application rather than compromise.
Better pole count alignment supports cleaner schematics, more intuitive marking, and easier installation planning. In industrial systems, those benefits are often more important than they appear at first glance.
Handling and Maintenance Advantages
The clamping yoke screw connection provides strong conductor retention and remains familiar to installers and service teams. The Weidmüller LL 5.08/11/90 3.2SN OR BX PCB terminal block benefits from that familiarity by supporting confident assembly and later service work.
The 90-degree conductor outlet is also important in real applications. It allows side-entry wire routing along the board plane, which can reduce enclosure depth pressure and improve internal organization. In equipment where space is limited, this is a practical mechanical advantage.
Common Application Areas
This terminal block can be used in machine interfaces, monitoring electronics, industrial control boards, energy management devices, building automation products, and OEM systems with application-specific terminal requirements. Its conductor range and current rating make it suitable for a broad range of direct PCB terminations.
