104354-7

The 104354-7 is a rectangular connector used in a variety of applications such as power, data, communication, industrial and instrumentation. It is also known as an embedded connector due to its ability to be embedded into the material. The 104354-7 is an open board-mount style male pin connector that has pins on both sides. It has an extended Polarized Snaptite plug that is designed to provide a secure connection with either standard or custom round buttons, allowing for a stronger connection than most traditional connectors. The connector is also available in a variety of styles depending on the application.

The 104354-7 is a backward-compatible connector, which means that it provides access to the existing and new connectivity functions. The polarized Snaptite contact interface is used to mate with the counterpart of the Snaptite plug. It also comes with an improved retainer clip to secure the plug and prevent insertion and withdrawal of the plug due to the effects of vibration or cable layout changes.

The main features of the 104354-7 include: a wide range of current ratings up to 6 amps, a low profile design that maximizes board space utilization, IP67 level of protection from dust and water, and up to thirteen positions of 13A/contact. The connector is easy to install, as it requires no soldering and only needs a Phillips head screw or hex nut to properly secure the connector to the board. Additionally, the connector is RoHS compliant and meets UL94V-0 requirements for flammability.

The working principle of the 104354-7 is relatively simple. After the plugs are secured to the board, the connection is then completed when the metal contact pins are inserted into the mating edge of the connector. The pins are mechanically held in place and act as an electrical bridge between the two surfaces. The pins are surrounded by an elastomeric seal to prevent dirt and liquids from entering or exiting the connector.

In addition to its wide application field, the 104354-7 provides a secure connection and is designed to meet the highest standard requirements. Its easy installation, improved retainer clip, and extended polarized Snaptite contact interface make it an ideal choice for applications in the power, data, communication, industrial and instrumentation markets.
