Heavy Duty Connectors - Housings, Hoods, Bases

0.9620100544 heavy duty connectors are mainly used in industrial-grade, high-vibration, extreme-temperature, and harsh-environment applications. These connectors provide the most secure and reliable connection for your most demanding applications. With robust construction, these housings, hoods, and bases are designed to provide superior mechanical stability, vibration resistance, and sealing performance.

Housings

Heavy duty connectors come in a variety of housing styles, such as header, flange, and shroud-mount. The header-style housing is the most common and provides a secure mounting mechanism. The flange-style housing provides additional stability and electrical shielding against EMI/RFI. The shroud-style housing provides the most secure mounting and extra protection from dust and debris.

Hoods

The hoods provided with the heavy duty connectors provide superior protection from environmental contaminants. They are usually made from a robust material such as polyamide or glass-fiber reinforced polyamide (GFRP) and are rated for extreme temperatures and mechanical shock. The hoods also have a dust- and weather-proof seal, which keeps out dust, dirt, and moisture from entering the connection point.

Bases

The base of the connector houses the pins and sockets as well as providing the proper electrical connection. The base typically consists of a nickel-plated zinc alloy. Some heavy duty connectors may feature additional contact protection to help reduce the risk of electrical faults and arcing.

Working Principle

The proper working of a heavy duty connector relies on the proper connection of the two male and female components of the connector. The male component is typically a pin, and the female component is a socket. When the two components are connected, the socket is pulled together to create an electrical connection that is held securely in place by interference fit. The housing, hood, and base help to ensure that the connection is reliable and protected from external contaminants.

Application Field

Heavy duty connectors are used in a wide variety of applications. They are the preferred choice for industrial-grade, high-vibration, extreme-temperature, and harsh-environment applications. These connectors are also commonly used in power, signal, and data applications, such as in automotive, healthcare, and communication industries. Furthermore, they are an ideal choice for outdoor and marine applications where reliable performance and protection are essential.
