3140-10-00 Application Field and Working Principle

The 3140-10-00 is a rectangular connector series designed for direct wire to board, board in applications. This type of pluggable connector is suitable for signal, power, and data communication. It features a low profile design with high packing density for use in tight spaces and an optional cable interface. The connector features a narrow 6.2mm footprint with a pluggable design for easy assembly and maintenance.

The 3140-10-00 rectangular connector is divided into three main parts, the socket, the tongue and the shell. This type of connection is usually used in applications that need to save cost or to reduce wiring related problems. It provides a reliable, secure connection between two devices for both signaland power. The socket is typically soldered onto the board and the tongue is inserted into the socket, providing a stable connection for the wire to the board.

The 3140-10-00 connector has an interference fit design with a double-ring mechanism. This means that when the tongue insert is fully inserted into the socket and pressed in tightly, the double-ring mechanism will cause the outer locking ring to lock the tongue in position at the end of its travel. This will ensure a secure connection between the two components, as the connection is not affected by vibration and environmental elements.

The 3140-10-00 connector also uses a screw-type locking system for additional security. This consists of a plate with two screws which can be tightened until the tongues are securely held in position. This type of locking system provides greater binding strength in comparison to other types of connectors, such as those with plastic snaps.

The contact interface of the 3140-10-00 connector is designed for high reliability and low contact resistance. This ensures excellent electrical performance with minimal power loss. Additionally, the contact interface is designed to ensure high EMI/RFI protection, helping to minimize interference from external sources. The high durability and reliable performance of the contact interface makes it suitable for use in harsh environments.

In summary, the 3140-10-00 rectangular connector series is a reliable and cost-effective choice for board in, direct wire to board applications. Its narrow footprint, pluggable design, and reliable contact interface make it a great choice for those looking for fast, easy installation, and reliable performance in tight spaces.
