162-10-310-00-001000

162-10-310-00-001000 is a type of rectangular connector headers featuring a 10-circuit housing designed to securely connect and hold mating and adjacent electrical components in place. The mating and adjacent electrical components can range from printed circuit boards, sensors, switches and other components. It is widely used in a variety of industrial and electronic applications.

To ensure a secure connection between two components, the 162-10-310-00-001000 features two parts that connect together. The first part of the connector consists of the header which includes four pins, each of which feature a “locking” mechanism. This locking mechanism is designed to firmly hold the mating and adjacent components in place. The second part of the connector is the terminal strip which contains the appropriate electrical contacts.

Once the header and terminal strip are connected, a two-way electrical contact is established between the adjacent electrical and mating components. When electricity is applied, it flows through the connecting pins of the header, then through the electrical contacts in the terminal strip and into the adjacent and mating components. This ensures a secure and reliable connection between them.

The 162-10-310-00-001000 has been designed with special features like anti-tamper and surge protection. The anti-tamper feature prevents the header from becoming loose due to external forces like vibration or shocks. The surge protection feature prevents sudden power surges or voltage spikes from damaging the header and the components it is connected to.

The header also features an auto-equalizing mechanism which prevents voltage drops from occurring when connecting two components together. This ensures a continuous supply of voltage and helps to keep the electrical and mating components in a safe working range.
