Rectangular connectors are most popularly used to transmit electric current from one electrical device to another. There are a few specific rectangular connectors available on the market, including standard pin headers, specialty pin headers and receptacles. The 134-10-316-00-050000 pin header is a type of specialty pin header that is designed to handle a larger load in applications with smaller space requirements. Its high contact density allows it to fit in even the tightest of places. Let’s look at the application field and working principle of the 134-10-316-00-050000 pin header.

The 134-10-316-00-050000 pin header is mainly used in applications that require a high current to be transmitted from one device to another, such as industrial and medical devices, automotive and communication equipment. It has a compact design with a high current carrying capacity and is rated for a maximum current of 20 Amps. The connector is made of tin plated brass with a zinc plated steel cover. The cable and wire connections are easy and secure with the use of a special locking mechanism.

The 134-10-316-00-050000 Pin Header is equipped with a two-piece contact system, which makes it easier to handle high currents than a single-piece design. The upper contact is used to make contact with the wire or cable, while the lower contact is responsible for contacting the device. Both contacts are made of tin-plated Low Carbon Steel to ensure high conductivity. The internal locking mechanism allows for the contacts to securely stay in place.

The working principle behind the 134-10-316-00-050000 connector is based on two key principles. The first principle is contact force, which is created by the spring loaded contact elements. These elements ensure that the contacts are held firmly together so that no metal-to-metal contact can take place. The second principle is terminal insulation, which prevents electrical arcing. The insulation material between the contact elements effectively blocks electrical flow and prevents them from sparking or causing other electrical issues.

Overall, the 134-10-316-00-050000 Pin Header is a great option for applications that require a small, high current carrying connector. Its two-piece contact system makes it easy to handle higher currents and its internal locking mechanism ensures a secure connection. The connector is also well insulated so that no electrical arcing can take place which can cause serious damage. The 134-10-316-00-050000 pin header is an outstanding choice for a variety of industries.
