171-009-202L011

D-Sub connectors are a popular type of connector used in many applications, from computer hardware and consumer electronics to industrial automation. The 171-009-202L011 D-sub connector is a particularly popular variant, designed for industrial applications where a low profile design is desired. It is a 9-pin connector that features quick and reliable connections.

Design and Construction

The 171-009-202L011 is a low profile D-Sub connector capable of terminating 9 individual matching contacts. It is a mechanical device that provides a physical connection between two panel-mounted components. The D-sub is made up of a housing that holds two “D-shaped” shells that hold up to 9 pins connected by flat head contacts. The contacts are made from nickel-plated brass. The contacts are pre-stressed and designed to ensure consistent electrical performance even after repeated insertions and removals. The housing is made from aluminum alloy.

Application Fields

The 171-009-202L011 D-sub connector is designed for industrial applications where a low profile design is desired. Typical applications include signal and power transmission in industrial machinery, computer spindles, measuring instruments, and CNC machinery. The 171-009-202L011 is also popular in medical and automotive applications. It can be used for data, signal, and power transmission.

Working Principle

The 171-009-202L011 D-sub connector functions by establishing a physical connection between two devices. The 9 pins are inserted into their respective contact areas in the two panels, creating a physical connection between the two components. The contact pressure of these pins ensures that the connection is secure and reliable. The pins are then crimped into place, forming a secure and electrical connection between the two devices.

When a connection is made, the impedance of the device is measured, which is used to determine the optimal current level. The current is then adjusted to the correct level for the application, ensuring that the connection is reliable and consistent. The pins can also be soldered together, providing an even more secure connection.

Conclusion

The 171-009-202L011 D-Sub connector is a low profile, cost effective connection solution for industrial applications. It utilizes quick and reliable connections to ensure consistent electrical performance even after repeated insertions and removals. Typical applications include signal and power transmission in industrial machinery, computer spindles, measuring instruments, and CNC machinery. The 171-009-202L011 is also popular in medical and automotive applications. It can be used for data, signal, and power transmission.
