Blade Type Power Connectors - Accessories

1604082-1 is a round plastic housing power connector with locking feature, designed to provide users with a secure connection system. It provides a low-resistance, strain-relieved contact. This connector is commonly used in a wide range of applications such as industrial controls, instrumentation, consumer electronics, computer, automobiles, agriculture equipment, and other related areas.

Applications

This power connector is predominantly used due to its dependable connection system and reliable performance. It is widely used to connect battery terminals, electric motors, controllers, pumps, etc. It is commonly used in various applications such as:

• Industrial Control.
• Instrumentation.
• Consumer Electronics.
• Computer.
• Automobiles.
• Agriculture Equipment.

Working Principle

This power connector consists of two connecting components: a male housing and a female housing which are referred to as the mating pair. The female housing is often fitted onto the connecting circuit, while the male housing is typically screwed onto the connecting wires. Both housings must be fitted with special seals that provide protection against oil, dust, and abrasion. The male and female housings are then connected via a locking mechanism, which ensures that the connection is secure and able to withstand various mechanical forces.

Advantage

This power connector system is more secure and reliable compared to screw terminals, latches, and spades. It provides a secure connection and is vibration and shock-resistant. The locking feature also prevents accidental disconnection. It also offers easy installation and superior electrical performance. This connector is resistant to a wide range of environmental conditions, including dust, dampness, and corrosion. It can be used in both indoor and outdoor applications.

Disadvantages

The only drawback to this type of power connector is its size. Due to its design, the power connector is typically larger than other types of connectors. This may limit its use in some applications where space is limited.

Conclusion

Blade type power connectors are reliable, secure, and easy to install. This type of connector is used in a variety of applications due to its dependability and excellent electrical performance. However, its larger size may limit its use in some applications where space is limited.
