What is the Wago 890-242?

Female connector/socket WINSTA ® MINI 2-pole

Use effective pluggable connections instead of laborious screw connections: With the WINSTA ® MINI female connector/socket 2-pole. Our pluggable installation connectors with spring pressure connection technology work completely without screw connections. They allow flexible, error-free installation in numerous possible uses. For greater security in electrical installations, the pluggable installation connector is provided with mechanical protection against mismating. B coding enables the WINSTA ® MINI pluggable installation connectors to be used for application control in automation, mechanical engineering and robotics. If only limited space is available, our smallest pluggable connection system, WINSTA ® MINI, consistently displays its strengths. It saves space, and, thanks to Push-in CAGE CLAMP® spring pressure connection technology, it additionally saves time, since the connection is low-maintenance and requires no screw connections.

Lower costs through fast commissioning and elimination of service expenses – solutions from WINSTA ® MINI

WINSTA® is the pluggable connection system that is ideally tailored to the strict requirements of electrical installation. It allows error-free installation of cables and components, quickly and reliably. Now you can also cut installation expenses without compromising safety and quality: with protection against mismating eliminates the need for servicing and prevents unnecessary downtime.
