5558503-1 Connectors, Interconnects

Modular Connectors - Jacks are a special type of connector used to connect two separate pieces of equipment or wires. And the 5558503-1 application field and working principle can be expressed in detail.

Application Field

The 5558503-1 is a male ammox connector latching marketed as “CONNECTOR, RECEPTACLE, 12C, 24 SOLDER SLOTS” and it is one of EHV Series product. As a wire-to-board or board-to-board power/signal connector, its application field is covering Industrial, Instrumentation, Automotive, Aerospace/Defense and Medical Device markets. This 5558503-1 connector provides a wide range of high performance electrical connection solutions available in solder termination styles with signals and power up to 60A.

The insulation, contact and shell for this connector are made of polycarbonate materials with titanium grey material colour features which make it good not only in electrical conductivity, but also in corrosion resistance and mechanical performance. Due to its versatility, this series of product can easily be used in many industrial control applications.

Working Principle

The 5558503-1 features a latching mechanism and it can be securely connected to its mating connector. This connector has a circular shape with 24 contact points that form 4 rows and 6 columns. Each row has a different distance with the two columns on the far ends being extra short and extra tall. It uses screw-locking style connection for secure and reliable connection. It also has a latch for easy and reliable connection and disconnection.

This connector has multiple strong metallic components in order to effectively create an electrical bond between two mating connectors. The contacts of this connector are designed with two thin, flexible fingers that provide a secure lock when mated. The contact fingers are gold plated, which guaranty excellent electrical conductivity and effective resistance to corrosion, temperature extremes and vibration.

The 5558503-1 has a unique design which provides excellent insulation and an effective way of keeping the electrical contact from aging and withstanding shock and vibration better than other types of connectors. It also offers an environmentally sealed connection which makes it suitable for use in harsh or humid conditions where other types of connectors cannot be used.

Conclusion

To sum up, the 5558503-1 application field and working principle is capable of meeting a wide range of high performance applications. It is ideal for many industrial control applications, providing an effective way of securely connecting two pieces of equipment while maintaining excellent signal integrity and reliable electrical connection.
