Rectangular Connectors – Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

Rectangular connectors are a standard form of electrical connection utilizing metalized or socketed female and male parts that mate. They are found commonly in a variety of applications from not only industrial automation & process control but increasingly in consumer electronics such as PCs, telephone systems, and digital cameras. Usually rectangular connectors are designed to conform to MIL-DTL-24308 – a specification that covers a variety of details relating to their design and construction.

422-83-268-41-001101 Application Field and Working Principle

The 422-83-268-41-001101 is part of a series of MIL-DTL-24308 connectors from Samtec. This yet-unassigned series is particularly versatile and designed with an emphasis on signal integrity. MIL-DTL-24308 connectors are used frequently in automation and production systems, robotics, test & measurement instrumentation, and process control applications. As a signal-oriented connector series it is ideally suited to the customer’s need for maximum signal transmission.

The 422-83-268-41-001101 series features a wide variety of signal pinouts as well as power and digital or communication lines. It is mainly comprised of a pin connector and a socket connector, with power and signal being transmitted through pins in the socket. The socket includes two metals layers with different features: The first one is the contact layer, and the second is the heat sink layer. The pins features insulation displacement contact (IDC) technology, which allows for easy and fast connection.

The 422-83-268-41-001101 is a versatile connection device that can manufacture a variety of connections without having to buy multiple connectors. It is specifically designed for automated processes and is easy to install and use. With contact elements and designed for high temperatures, robust performance is guaranteed in harsh environments. The 422-83-268-41-001101 is strong and vibration unaffected and resist corrosive liquids, dust, and chemicals.

The contact carrier of the 422-83-268-41-001101 series has a self-locking and removable housing that eliminates the need for any other external mounting hardware. This enables the customer to quickly mount the stainless steel contacts on the contact sheet and then move it to the mating socket and mate it without the need for a special spring pin or other components.

The contact element of the 422-83-268-41-001101 series features an intuitive design. Each contact is equipped with a spring force compensation mechanism to compensate for differences in different mating moments caused by circuit boards. This ensures repeatable and reliable mating and disengagement.
