68794-118LF Datasheet/PDF68794-118LF rectangular connectors are versatile, high-density, single-row wire-to-board connector solutions, designed to support high current capacity and high pin count applications. They are a reliable choice for robust applications and are used in a wide variety of industrial and networking systems, such as medical systems, communications systems, and process control systems.
The 68794-118LF connector features a high-density pitch (0.8mm) and robust housing. It also features a secure locking system for easy assembly. The connector system provides an operation voltage range up to 500V and a current of up to 6.5A, making it capable of handling heavy loads and harsh environments. The connector is constructed using RoHS compliant materials.
The 68794-118LF is a type male pin header with a ‘right angle’ design. This enables the connector to fit in tight spaces, where conventional connectors have difficulty being inserted. The ‘right angle’ design comes with both a straight and a curved contact interface which ensures that the mating connectors can be securely locked without any interference. This provides improved ease of use, especially when dealing with applications that require multiple connections.
The working principle of the 68794-118LF is quite simple. It uses contact pins which are welded on a plastic insulator and connected to a printed circuit board (PCB). The contact pins provide connection points between the 68794-118LF and a mating connector. The connector is secured with a locking mechanism and the contact pins make electrical connection with the mating connector. These contact pins are subjected to high operating pressure when plugging and unplugging. This contact pressure ensures a reliable and secure electrical connection.
The 68794-118LF is an ideal choice for applications which require robustness, small size and reliable electrical connections. The rectangular shape makes it possible to handle high currents and the right angle design provides easy access in tight spaces. The high-performance contact system, combined with reliable secure locking mechanism, make this connector system an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
