Introduction

Backplane connectors are commonly used in a variety of applications such as electronic and electrical equipment, industrial automation, medical devices, and communication networks. Their housing provides protection from external components and allows for an efficient contact and an easy connection. The 516-120-000-301 backplane connector is one of the most popular types of backplane connectors. It features a slim, easy to use, high-performance design and is available in various configurations for a variety of applications. This article will discuss the application fields and working principles of the 516-120-000-301 backplane connector housing.

Application Fields

The 516-120-000-301 backplane connector is widely used in a variety of application fields. It is commonly employed in industrial automation, control systems, and military applications. It is also used in robots, machine tools, medical devices, marine, and space applications. The connector is designed to be used in a wide variety of electronic and electrical systems. Its slim design ensures that it can fit into small spaces and it can easily be released with a simple latch. It is capable of carrying up to 35A of current, making it suitable for many high-current needs. Additionally, its high performance ensures that it can withstand vibration and shock, making it an ideal choice for applications in which electrical connections may be exposed to extreme environments.

Working Principle

The 516-120-000-301 backplane connector housing is designed to provide a secure contact with the circuit board. The connector consists of two parts. The first part is the contact holder which contains up to three different contacts (including two integrated contacts). These contacts are held securely in place by a latch and cannot be positioned easily. The second part is the contact cap which acts as a protective shield for the contacts. The two parts are connected together with two screws. When the connector is properly connected, the contact holder and contact cap create an insulated barrier around the contacts. This isolates the electrical circuit from other components, and protects against external interference. Additionally, the contact holder features a stabilizing force so that it remains securely connected to the circuit board.

Conclusion

The 516-120-000-301 backplane connector housing is a versatile and reliable solution for a wide range of applications. It features a slim design which makes it easy to fit into small spaces, and it can withstand vibration and shock. Its robust construction ensures that electrical connections remain secure, even in harsh environments. Additionally, its high-performance design allows it to carry up to 35A of current, making it suitable for many high-current needs.
