Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

Connectors are a vital link between board level components, subassemblies, and other devices. They facilitate interconnectivity of systems, and allow us to make electrical and electronic connections without the need for manual or soldering work. Rectangular connectors are connectors that come in many shapes and sizes, however feature a similar rectangular configuration. This includes headers, receptacles, female sockets, and more.

15220682401000 Application Field and Working Principle

15220682401000 is a series of rectangular connectors manufactured by AMP for applications in various markets, including data, telecom, industrial control, and computing. These connectors feature 42 contacts in two rows, Dual beam contact design and a maximum compliant current of 4 A or 6 A. This makes them a great solution for applications requiring a mechanically robust connection with the ability to carry power efficiently.

The connectors feature a Dual beam contact structure, which utilizes a two-beam system to provide a reliable electrical connection. In standard operation, the contact’s body is pushed down into the end of its housing. The contact tip then applies force downwards onto the mating contact, which is held in place by a locking tab. An additional level of retention is provided by a leaf spring system, which is designed to prevent the contact from lifting out of its socket when subjected to high vibration.

The contacts are also polarized to ensure correct mating. The two-beam system is mounted at an angle so that it can be mechanically cammed out when the connector is fully mated, allowing the contact to self-align for easier mating. This helps make the connection more reliable and allows the contacts to make an electrical connection without having to adjust the pins.

The 15220682401000 connectors from AMP are rated to operate up to 4 A or 6 A of current, depending on the contact size. The contacts are designed for corrosive and hazardous environments, where it is important to have a reliable and correct electrical connection. They are also designed to meet IP67 dust and water protection requirements, as well as UL, CSA, VDE, ASUS, and other safety standards.

The 15220682401000 connectors from AMP are an excellent choice for applications in data, telecom, industrial control, and computing. They are designed for corrosion and hazardous environments and feature a reliable dual beam contact structure, as well as secure locking and breaking tabs to ensure a secure connection. Additionally, the contacts are rated to carry up to 4 A or 6 A of current, depending on the contact size, allowing them to be used in a variety of applications.
