78511-403HLF

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins are widely used in a variety of applications, ranging from automotive to medical. The 78511-403HLF is a variant of these types which is used for higher current ratings than other standard rectangular connectors. This section will focus on the 78511-403HLF application field and working principle.

Application Field

The 78511-403HLF is mainly used in high-power applications that require power distribution, high amperage rating, and a reliable connector. The most common applications for this connector are in industrial fields such as factory automation, machine tool and robotics, hybrid energy, automotive, and aerospace. Other applications include backplanes, communications, gaming, lighting, motion control, medical, power electronics and renewable energy.

Working Principle

The 78511-403HLF connector features a shrouded design with multiple pin options. The design also includes a high-half pitch which can improve performance in applications where vibration is an issue. The high-half pitch also prevents misalignment of mating connectors. The contact system for this connector is composed of three metal elements, which includes a tin-plated copper alloy housing, two gold-plated contact pins and a gas-tight sealant. The housing is constructed of a specially-treated brass that is resistant to corrosion, shock, and vibration.

The 78511-403HLF uses a locking system which is designed to provide superior performance and provide increased protection from vibration and shock. It ensures secure mating of the connectors and prevents accidental disassembly. The design also includes a latch system to ensure a secure connection. The locking system also ensures that the connector is securely locked, so it will remain in place without the need for additional adhesive or mechanical fastening.

Conclusion

The 78511-403HLF is a high-performance, reliable connector that is suitable for a wide range of applications. It is used in industrial fields such as factory automation, machine tool and robotics, hybrid energy, automotive, and aerospace. The connector features a shrouded design with multiple pin options, a high-half pitch and a locking system that ensures secure mating of the connectors and prevents accidental disassembly.
