What is 55508-050LF?

The 55508-050LF is a 5.0mm pitch Low Force (LF) Header socket that supports wire-to-board interconnectivity in many commercial, industrial, and medical applications. The 55508-050LF has a total stand-off height of 8.0 mm, with the connector on board components having a surface-mount circuit board size of 1.9mm x 4.6mm. It also supports a wide range of insulation displacement with a recommended wire gauge of 28-32 AWG.

Typical Applications

The 55508-050LF is designed to provide comprehensive interconnection for commercial/ industrial and medical instruments. It is often found in mass transit, automotive, aerospace, medical systems, equipment, medical diagnostic equipment, medical monitors, communication systems, and other military/aerospace applications. The 55508-050LF is especially well-suited for applications where high quality and reliable connections are essential, including applications that require quick disconnects or those that could be subject to shock or vibration.

Advantages

The 55508-050LF offers several key advantages over traditional headers. Its low force design makes it less prone to accidental disconnects and provides better uniform force across contacts. It is designed with an anti-wicking feature which reduces the risk of moisture wicking which can ultimately damage the contacts. This connector also has superior thermocouple performance, as well as excellent durability due to its machined-high strength material, which offers better resistance to shock, vibration, and mechanical strain.

Working principle

The working principle of the 55508-050LF is based on mechanical, electromechanical and thermal characteristics, which enable the connector to be used in a variety of applications, including industrial, communications, automotive, and medical applications. The 55508-050LF connects to the board by means of an array of contacts, which are designed to grip and hold a conductive wire in place.

The connector is designed to provide a reliable connection even when subjected to vibration, shock, and mechanical strain. This is accomplished through its unique contact design, which uses four contact points that fit into a single face of the connector. The contact points are also designed to provide an improved electrical connection, as well as enhanced mechanical stability.

The 55508-050LF is also designed for easy installation and quick disconnects, with a superior gripping force that ensures reliable connections, even after thousands of mating cycles. The contact design also includes a positive locking feature, which ensures that the connection will remain secure even when the connector is being used in harsh environmental conditions.

Conclusion

The 55508-050LF is a high-performance, reliable rectangular connector designed for use in a variety of different applications. Its low-force design ensures that it will remain secure even when used in harsh environments, and its contact design guarantees a reliable connection even after thousands of mating cycles. Its superior thermocouple performance and enhanced mechanical stability further add to its appeal for use in many commercial, industrial, and medical applications.
