Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

The 5-147102-8 rectangular connector is a pluggable device which meets the European design, performance, and safety standards, as designated by its IP67 rating. It features a robust design, having a dust-tight seal making it uniquely suited for harsh environment applications. Additionally, the 5-147102-8 features dual-position widths and thumbscrew locking for extra secure connections.The 5-147102-8 is primarily used in a variety of automated industrial systems, such as in the automotive, aerospace, and medical fields. The connector is used to connect two sections of electronic circuitry or two components of the same system. It is also used in sensors, control systems, and motor actuator systems.The basic working principle of the 5-147102-8 rectangular connector is simple. The connector features two parts—a male and a female counterpart. The male connector has two metal pins which are inserted into a receptacle on the female connector. When correctly inserted, the pins make contact with the receptacle to create a connection. The dual-position width of the 5-147102-8 allows for contact between pins and receptacle at two different widths. This is to ensure a secure connection.The 5-147102-8 also features a unique thumbscrew locking system that adds to the security of the connection. The thumb screws act as a locking mechanism to ensure that the connection stays secure. Additionally, the 5-147102-8’s dust-tight seal makes sure that no dust or dirt particles can get into the connection, thus eliminating the risk of short-circuiting or malfunctioning.In conclusion, the 5-147102-8 rectangle connector is a robust device that meets European design, performance, and safety standards. This device is suited for a variety of industrial applications, such as automotive, aerospace, and medical fields. It works by having two pins making contact with the receptacle on the female connector, and with the dual-position width and thumbscrew locking, the connection made is secure and free from dirt and dust particles. Thus the 5-147102-8 transformer is an ideal device for applications that require reliable connections in harsh environments.
