66-SSF-020-1-06

Power entry connectors are designed to facilitate plug-in entry of current and power from one device to another. The family includes inlets, outlets, filters, fuses, converters and the like, and is used to transfer electrical power from the external source to the protected device. The 66-SSF-020-1-06 is a single inlet with line filtering for use in power entry applications. The primary application field of power entry connectors is typically in medical, industrial, and/or commercial device protection.

When applied within the appropriate power entry requirements, the 66-SSF-020-1-06 serves as a convenient source of power for devices that cannot be directly powered from a standard AC outlet. In applications such as for medical equipment or laboratory instrumentation, the power entry connectors can help protect against power surges and interference from outside sources. The single inlet with line filtering also helps protect against electrostatic discharge (ESD) from external sources.

The 66-SSF-020-1-06 power entry connector is rated for 600VAC and up to 10 amps. It is available with filters depending on the application’s needs, such as Radiation safety filters, Differential Mode Noise filters, Common Mode Noise filters, and EMI/RFI filters for EMI/RFI issues. The connector has quick safe installation, multiple configurations, over-voltage protection, and corrosion-resistant contacts, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

The 66-SSF-020-1-06 also offers a range of mating locks to ensure secure connection of the power entry connector. The mating locks provide a primary locking system between the connector and the power source. The locking mechanism includes a variation of bayonet, tab, plug or latch locks on the inlet, and snap or retaining locks on the outlet, depending on the specific configuration of the power entry connector. This ensures that the connection between the power source and device stays secure during use.

The working principle of the 66-SSF-020-1-06 includes two main parts – the power transfer and the filtering/overvoltage protection. The power transfer part is responsible for transferring the electrical power from the external source to the protected device. The filtering/overvoltage protection part helps to ensure that the power source does not interfere with or affect the operation of the device. This is done by filtering out any noises generated by the external power source, and by preventing any power that is higher than the maximum allowed voltage from passing through the power entry connector.

In conclusion, the 66-SSF-020-1-06 power entry connectors provide a convenient and secure source of power transfer for medical, industrial, and/or commercial device protection. Through its line filtering, over-voltage protection, and various locking mechanisms, the connectors ensure a safe and reliable power connection every time.
