147779-1 Connectors, Interconnects

Rectangular connectors are electrical connectors commonly used when there is a requirement for insulated power and signal connections. They are commonly found in automotive, railway, robotic and military applications where efficient connections are needed. The 147779-1 is a type of rectangular connector especially designed for automotive applications, specifically for automotive headlight connections.

Rectangular connectors are typically a multi-pin connection of either male or female contact components designed to fit into specific receptacles. The 147779-1 rectangular connector consists of two identical male pin connectors secured by locking tab on their tips and having a “radial” pin configuration. The pins are around 22mm x 8.5mm in size, and the locking tab is field-serviceable. The contacts are plated with gold to increase signal transience and reduce electrical noise.

The 147779-1 is used primarily for automotive headlight connections in which it allows interconnection of electronic devices and other components located in the headlight. The male pins are inserted into the connector body, which has a self-locking tab to ensure no accidental disconnection. The self-locking tab also offers strain relief when the connection is in use. Additionally, the gold-plated contacts are corrosion-resistant for a longer operational life.

The 147779-1 male pin connector may also be used for power and signal transfer. It can be used for transferring power from the electronic components of the headlight, such as LED lights, sensors and other lighting components, to the external wiring harnesses and relays. The 147779-1 male pin connector can also be used for signal transfer, allowing the transfer of signals from the external wiring harnesses to the electronic components in the headlight.

The 147779-1 male pin connector is completely insulated, which prevents any electrical shorts between the pins of the connector. This ensures the safe transfer of electrical power and signals. The connector is also designed with an overmold that protects the connections between the pins.

The 147779-1 connector establishes a secure electrical connection in automotive applications, allowing for the efficient transfer of electrical power and signals. Its male pin design, along with its self-locking tab and gold-plated contacts, provide a reliable and durable connection for lighting components and electronic devices in automotive headlight applications.
