It is also used in industrial, communication, and medical equipment; sensors, machine vision, and machine vision systems; audio/video systems; and computers.

It is also used in over-the-air broadcast and satellite applications, such as in broadcasting antennas, satellite dishes, cable systems, and as a support point for antennas, transmitters, receivers, and other equipment. It is used in a variety of residential applications, such as home theatre systems, entertainment systems, security systems, home automation, and energy management systems. It is suitable for use in harsh and hazardous environments, and is certified for use in hazardous locations, such as explosive atmospheres.

Working Principle

The housing of the 68498-302 is made of high-grade phenolic resin that ensures a tight connection and high reliability. It is designed with two solder tails, which ensures a secure connection while providing flexibility for how and where the connector is installed. The pins of the 68498-302 are made of corrosion resistant copper alloy that is insulative and insulated. The pins can be inserted into the housing by using a push-fit connection.

The 68498-302 operates on the basis of a simple spring contact system. When the two halves of the connector are joined, a series of pins on one half of the connector make contact with corresponding receptacles on the other half. The two contact surfaces provide a secure connection that prevents the occurrence of shorts or fault currents that could otherwise occur when the connection is established.

The 68498-302 is designed to accommodate a variety of wire sizes and is available in different finishes. It is also available in a wide range of sizes, allowing for the use of multiple connectors in the same application, providing additional room for expansion. The connector is also designed for high-current applications and is capable of carrying up to 20A of current.

Conclusion

The 68498-302 is a high-power connector designed for use in a variety of electronics and electrical applications. It is suitable for use in a range of applications, including high power distribution, current transfer, and peripheral device interconnection. It is small and robust in construction and can be used in a wide variety of environments, both harsh and hazardous. Its spring contact system ensures a secure connection while its wide range of pin configurations allows for the use of multiple connectors in the same application. It is also capable of handling high currents, up to 20A.
