51892

Terminals - Wire Splice Connectors

51892 terminals are widely used in many industrial applications, as well as in the domestic sector. These versatile and robust wire splice connectors are especially suitable for applications such as telecommunications, alarm systems, lighting controls, computer systems, and heating and air conditioning systems. They offer superior protection against corrosion, vibrations, dust and abrasions, and are also highly resistant to temperature fluctuations and aging.

Specifications

The 51892 terminal is an industry-standard, two-post, single-pin terminal that has been designed for a wide range of applications. It is a two-piece splice connector constructed of a zinc alloy backshell and a PVC center insulator. The backshell features a zinc-plated steel spring-snap that latches onto the mounting surface, ensuring a secure connection. The center insulator is made from durable, heat-resistant, and UV-resistant PVC. It features two locking cams made of plastic that hold the wire securely in place.

Installation

Installing the 51892 terminal is a quick and easy process. Loosen the backshell\'s spring-snap and mount it onto the surface. Next, insert the wire into the center insulator and connect the terminal end of the wire to the backshell. Finally, snap the spring-snap back into place, to ensure a reliable connection. It is important to note that for most applications, the terminal must be installed with the backshell facing up and the wire entering from the back.

Working Principle

When the 51892 terminal is correctly installed, it provides a secure connection between the backshell and the wire. The backshell’s zinc-plated steel spring-snap latches snugly to the mounting surface, ensuring a negative ground connection. The wire is held securely in place by two locking cams on the center insulator. These cams compress the wire, making a positive contact that is resistant to vibration or movement. This creates a secure connection that prevents corrosion, dust, and abrasion from entering the connection.

Applications

The 51892 terminal can be used in a variety of applications, including telecommunications, data centers, security systems, lighting controls, heating and air conditioning systems, and even computer systems. It can also be used in domestic installations, such as connecting electrical outlets or appliances. The 51892 terminal’s versatility makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.

Conclusion

The 51892 terminal is a robust and reliable wire splice connector. Its versatility, durability, and superior protection against corrosion, dust, and abrasion make it an ideal choice for a wide range of industrial and domestic applications. Installing the terminal is a quick and easy process, and its working principle ensures a secure and reliable connection that is resistant to vibration and movement.
