172164-1

Rectangular Connectors - Housings

172164-1 is a connector used primarily in electronic devices in various fields, including aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors. It is a high current density rectangle connector with two or three square shape contact configurations. The contact material is copper alloy and the shell material is die-cast zinc alloy. The contact plating is gold over nickel.

Applications Field and Working Principle

172164-1 is widely applicable to the electronic equipment in the aerospace, aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors, and it can be widely used in a variety of wiring, signal/power transmission and grounding conditions. It can also be used to connect wires in in-flight aircraft, and is a reliable and stable connecting device for military aviation and civil aviation.

172164-1 features high current density and high vibration resistance. Its operating angle is 90°, and contact pressure can reach up to 140 N. The contact resistance is 0.25 mΩ. Its dielectric strength can reach up to 1000 VAC. It is waterproof and dustproof, making it suitable for use in harsh environments. The contact point is of high precision, with a pitch accuracy of ±0.1mm.

The working principle of 172164-1 is quite simple and convenient. Once the connectors have been fitted and locked into place, two conductors must be inserted into the connectors for a complete connection. When the connection is made, the connector housing acts as a shield, providing insulation against electromagnetic interference. This helps to protect the signal being transmitted through the connection from interference from the environment.

172164-1 features a push-to-lock mechanism, allowing operators to easily and quickly connect and disconnect wires. It has a keyway that aligns two connectors, preventing the wrong wires from being connected. And its molded-on actuator helps prevent stress on the internal parts of the connectors when disconnecting.

Conclusion

172164-1 is a reliable and stable connector that provides an effective and convenient way of connecting two or more wires. It can be widely used in various fields, including aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors. It features a high current density, high vibration resistance, good insulation properties, and a push-to-lock mechanism.
