Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins, 2340-6151TG Application Field and Working Principle

Rectangular connectors and headers, male pins are widely used in a variety of applications, from the infrastructures to the machines, and the computers. 2340-6151TG is one of the rectangular connectors, which have been wildly used in the industries. This report will discuss the application field of the 2340-6151TG rectangular connector and header and male pin, as well as the working principle.

Application Field

The 2340-6151TG connector and header, and male pin are suitable for a variety of industrial applications. It is an ideal choice for the power and data intensive applications. It has a high current carrying capacity (11A) and can be used for power supply for LED lighting systems, as is seen in many industrial facilities. The double-sided layouts and pre-wired single positions, allows for custom connection configurations. The exceptional mounting stability ensures reliability.

Due to its di-electric strength (1500VAC), it is also suitable for hard to reach areas, and it can be engineered with several specialized pin configuration. The pins are made of high grade steel and are electroplated for resisting corrosion and oxidation, which makes them suitable for usage in moist and saltwater environment. The 2340-6151TG connectors are designed to fit a variety of communication applications and are rated for communication speeds up to 6 Gbps.

Its other applications include wireless communication, robotics, automotive components, metering and instrumentation, medical instrumentation, networking, and computer/server rack installation.

Working Principle

The 2340-6151TG connectors and headers, male pins are designed to provide secure and reliable connection between two terminal points, for example in a circuit board. The items consist of male and female connectors connected via a double-sided board or a single-side board, with the header pins. The 2340-6151TG connector comes with five pins, four in the female side and one in the male side. The four pins on the female side are soldered to the board and the pins on the male side are attached via set screws.

When the user connected the male pin to the female connector, the pins for the four pins on the female side made contact with four corresponding pins on the male side. This ensures that no short-circuits between the contact pins occur and the connection remains effective. The header pins also provide tension between the connector and header, which prevents loosening of the connection caused by vibrating or shock.

In the event of an accidental disconnection, the header pin act as a safety feature and prevent complete disconnection of the two devices. Allowing the user to re-connect the pin, without having to disassemble the entire circuit board. This also allows for easy replacement of any component in the connection.

Conclusion

The 2340-6151TG rectangular connectors have a wide range of usage cases. Its sturdy build, rated for high current and speeds, and the safety feature of the header pins makes it a popular choice in the industry. Industrial and communication settings, automobiles, medical applications, computing and networking can make use of the 2340-6151TG.
