Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

RECT 315-87-154-41-003101 is a series of rectangular connectors - headers, receptacles and female sockets specifically designed for a variety of uses in a number of different industries. It is a class of electrical connector having two or more parallel rows or pins and a mating socket. The rectangular connectors are designed for versatile use, in various applications where space and environmental conditions do not permit the use of circular connectors. Examples of applications with this type of connector include control panels, voltage regulators, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), and alarm and monitoring systems.

Application Field

RECT 315-87-154-41-003101 connectors are used in the following application fields:

• Control panels
• Voltage regulators
• Programmable logic controllers (PLCs)
• Industrial control
• Industrial automation
• Robotics
• Data communication systems
• Sensors
• Inverters
• Power electronics
• Alarm and monitoring systems

This list of application fields is not exhaustive but it gives an indication of the versatility of rectangular connectors. This type of connector is widely used in industrial, commercial and military applications, due to its ease-of-use, robust construction, and ability to withstand varying levels of vibration and torque. The most common uses for this type of connector are for the transfer of power or data.

Working Principle

The working principle of this connector is simple. It works by the two parallel rows of pins, which are attached to wires, and the mating socket into which those pins are inserted. Once inserted they make contact and conduct an electrical signal. To prevent the pins from being inserted the wrong way round there are two versions of the connector – male and female.

The male version has the pins, which are arranged in two parallel rows, and the female version has the holes into which the pins are inserted. The pins are usually covered by an insulating boot which helps to keep out dust and moisture and also to make sure that the contact is kept clean. The insulating boot can be made from plastic or rubber, depending on the type of connector and its intended use.

RECT 315-87-154-41-003101 connectors come in various sizes and styles, and are designed to handle a variety of voltages and currents. They can also be used for data transmission. Some RECT connectors have additional features such as built-in strain relief and integrated locking mechanisms, to improve their strength and durability.

Conclusion

RECT 315-87-154-41-003101 rectangular connectors are a versatile type of electrical connector and are widely used in a number of different industries. The two parallel rows of pins and mating socket make for easy connections between various types of devices. This type of connector is highly reliable due to its rugged construction and is suitable for a variety of applications where space is at a premium. It is also able to withstand various levels of vibration and torque. It is available in a range of sizes and styles, and can be used for the transfer of both power and data.
