3101-3-00-80-00-00-08-0 Application Field and Working Principle

3101-3-00-80-00-00-08-0 (3101) are one-piece, single post connectors used as terminal connections in medium to high current applications, often in the electrical and aerospace industries. They are available in a variety of sizes and styles to suit several different mounting and configuration options that meet industry requirements for reliable, easy-to-install connecting solutions. The terminal connectors feature a unique threaded design that allows for secure, fast installations while still retaining its two-pieces construction.

3101 connectors offer users several advantages, including a solid construction that can handle high levels of vibration and shock, as well as withstanding extreme temperatures. The connectors are designed to provide a reliable interface between a variety of devices in applications where vibration and temperature change are significant considerations. The 3101 features a two-piece construction with a spring-loaded contact element, a threaded collar and an insulated sleeve. The contact element slides within the body of the connector to provide a strong electrical connection between the wired path and the system.

The most significant feature of the 3101 terminal connector is its unique design. Its threaded collar is designed to ensure a tight connection with the mating component, holding the connection point in place without the use of additional mounting hardware. The springs create a low-impedance, low-resistance connection, allowing higher current to pass through the connection with minimal energy loss.

The insulation sleeve surrounding the connector minimizes the risk of connection problems. The sleeve helps keep out any dust and moisture that could disrupt signal reliability and minimize contact resistance. Its thicker, more flexible design provides better protection against extreme temperature changes and most external interference.

3101 connectors also feature a simple crimping system that allows users to quickly install them in a variety of applications with minimal effort. The crimping system also helps to create a more secure contact with the connection. The spring-loaded contact can be easily removed and replaced in minutes, allowing users to quickly switch out components for maintenance and repair.

The 3101 terminal connectors are used in a variety of industries and applications to reliably connect power supplies, signal cables, and other wires. From aerospace and military systems to automotive and industrial systems, the 3101 connector is a reliable, cost-effective solution to maintaining secure connections across a variety of critical systems.
