Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins, 65496-149LF Application Field and Working Principle

The 65496-149LF is a rectangular connector, specifically a header with male pins, from Positronic. Specifically for use in medical, aerospace, and automotive applications, it is available in four different pin counts — 10, 16, 20, and 26 pins — and is suitable for a wide range of electrical cable and wire applications.

As a header with male pins, the 65496-149LF is a type of rectangular connector component featuring two primary parts. The first part is a header, which consists of a plastic housing with a row of pins at one end and a pair of mating locks at the other. The second part, the male pin, is inserted into the housing and attached to each of the pins. The pins and the mating locks are the components that make contact to transmit signal or electricity.

The specific design and purpose of the 65496-149LF makes it suitable for a variety of applications. Many medical devices such as ventilators, infusion pumps, and patient monitors use rectangular connectors like the 65496-149LF to connect power and signals. In aerospace, this type of connector is used to connect components on aircraft and in satellites. It can also be found in industrial automation and other high-speed applications for its fast connection rates.

To better understand the device’s operation, it is important to discuss the 65496-149LF’s working principle. Apart from the two main parts described above, the 65496-149LF also features contact springs, a locking nut, and an insulation sleeve. The contact springs maintain electrical continuity between the pins and the mating locks. The locking nut ensures the connectors stay locked in place. Finally, the insulation sleeve helps protect any connection against dirt and moisture. Once everything is assembled, contact is achieved between the pins and the mating locks, allowing current to flow and signals to be transmitted.

The 65496-149LF is an excellent choice of rectangular connector for a wide range of industrial and medical applications. Its design and components allow for fast, reliable connections, which are essential in many high-speed applications. Its robust construction and insulation sleeve are also ideal for use in environments exposed to dirt and moisture, ensuring reliable connectivity even under harsh conditions.
