Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins provide reliable connections with the assurance of repeat performance in harsh environments. The male pin component, also known as the 151232-7422-RB, is a rectangular connector, commonly used in various applications.

Applications

151232-7422-RB pins are commonly used in a number of electronic, industrial, and consumer applications. Examples of its uses include automotive instrument panels and light bulbs, computer systems and onboard boards, as well as game console systems. The 151232-7422-RB headers are also used in printers, data communication products, and audio/video devices. Furthermore, they may be employed in other applications, such as lighting fixtures, power supplies, and medical devices.

Design and Construction

151232-7422-RB pins feature a two-piece design, consisting of a die-cast shell and 3-finger contact. The die-cast shell provides a durable construction with strong tensile strength, making it suitable for a wide variety of environments. It is available in a 5µ or 15µ inch clearance. The 3-finger contact is designed as a double-ended blade with a single contact, a pair of contact blades, or a set of three contacts. It is made of a phosphor bronze alloy and nickel-plated for corrosion resistance and improved contact force. It is coated with a silver-coated tin plating to provide a reliable electrical connection.

Installation and Maintenance

When installing the 151232-7422-RB connector, alignment and how it is mounted are important factors. The pin can be installed manually or with a pneumatic tool. Additionally, the pin should be installed symmetrically with the mating part. To ensure proper mechanical and electrical contact, it is important to inspect the components prior to installation.

Working Principle

The 151232-7422-RB pin is designed to provide a durable, reliable connection. The contact blades are arranged in a particular pattern. When the mating part is plugged into the header, the contacts are compressed between the mating part and the header. This compression produces a strong connection that is resistant to shock and vibration. The amount of compression can be adjusted simply by turning the header\'s adjusting screw.

Conclusion

The 151232-7422-RB pin is a versatile, reliable rectangular connector. It is suitable for a wide range of applications, from automotive and computer systems to medical and audio/video devices. It features a two-piece design and a 3-finger contact for secure electrical connections. And its adjustable compression makes it easy to install and maintain for repeated performance in harsh environments.
