521846-1

Rectangular connectors are classified by their design and usage. As the name implies, these are generally rectangular shaped components used to join two or more conductors for the transfer of electrical power or signals. Rectangular connectors, such as the 521846-1, are a type of housing connector with robust, reliable performance and typically used in severe environmental conditions, and in applications needing higher pin density and power levels.

The 521846-1 is an entity rectangular connector housing with secure mating for asymmetric connections. It aims to carry maximum pin density and power level between two connection points and ensures high reliability performance. The 521846-1 have an integral mating system for secure connections and include reliable contact retention features that ensure features enable quick signal verification. The features also enable quick disconnection and connection with a secure mating and secure seal, providing an optimal performance in harsh environments.

The 521846-1 has a unique two-piece construction that helps in easy assembly as compared to existing conventional housing connectors. This two-piece construction consists of three distinct components, namely: the base, the mating element and the tongue. The base is comprised of a fixed insulator together with receptacle and connector contacts and is designed to provide secure connections and reliable contact retention in harsh environments. The mating element is a rectangular plug that mates with the base contacts to form a secure connection for power and signal transmission. The tongue is a flexible rubber member that helps to join two mating elements for secure fits and protect against dust, water and other contaminants. It also provides mechanical strain relief for the connection.

The 521846-1 is designed for use in the most rigorous industrial applications such as heavy machinery, automotive vehicles, marine vessels, and other harsh environmental settings. It is well-suited for these types of applications as it can be subjected to high temperatures, high vibration, and other demanding environmental conditions without compromising the performance of the connection. The robust and reliable design of the 521846-1 makes it ideal for heavy and continuous use as it can withstand frequent and rigorous use while maintaining its performance, even under extreme conditions.

The 521846-1 is a very reliable connector that offers superior performance in harshest of environments. It is suitable for many applications, especially where robust and highly reliable power and signal transmission is needed in harsh environments. Its two-piece construction, secure mating and integrated contact retention features make the 521846-1 an ideal choice for industry applications that require higher pin density, power levels and secure connections.
