98424-G52-34U

Rectangular Connectors, sometimes referred to as “Headers”, are broadly used in a variety of applications and are available in two main types, Male Pins and Female Sockets. One particularly popular example of this type of connector is the 98424-G52-34U.

Applications

98424-G52-34U Connectors are used in a wide variety of applications, providing a reliable connection for electrical signals. This particular style of connector is often used in the medical, telecommunications, automotive, and industrial industries. Due to the combination of reliable electrical performance and robust mechanical design, they are well-suited for demanding applications such as automotive, medical, and aerospace.

Working Principle

The 98424-G52-34U Connector is comprised of two parts, a male pin and a female socket. The male pin is inserted into the socket and a spring-loaded contact system maintains the connection. The spring-loaded contacts ensure a reliable electrical signal and also ensure the connection is secure against vibration and shock. The male pin is typically held in place with a locking mechanism, which prevents it from accidentally being disconnected.

The 98424-G52-34U also features an IP68 rating, meaning it is dust and waterproof. This makes it a great choice for applications in harsh or wet environments, and for applications where replacing the connector would be impractical or too expensive. The connector is usually sealed with a specialized rubber gasket, further protecting it from dust and water.

The 98424-G52-34U Connector is an excellent choice for any application where reliability and protection from shock and vibration are necessary. It is often used in medical, automotive, telecommunications, and industrial applications due to its robust design and reliable electrical performance.
