Rectangular Connectors - Spring Loaded
The 818-22-008-10-004101 is a rectangular connector belonging to the spring loaded connectors category. This type of connector is designed with a built in biasing spring for a positive, reliabledip connection into the mating head. The spring accommodation within the connector body ensures the successful mating every time an operator removes or inserts the mating head.
Application Field
The 818-22-008-10-004101 spring loaded connector is suitable in the automotive, medical, energy, industrial, control system, power supply, aerospace, and military applications. Its wide range of application makes it valuable parts in a plenty of industries.
Working Principle
The connectors have contact retention using a built in spring, which acts to produce a positive mating force when it is plugged together with its mating head. The electrical contact is made only when the contact blades of two mating plugs meet. Thus the contact confiormity is ensured. The use of the built-in spring also eliminates fatigue due to the contact force required for conventional pin-contact connectors.
Advantages
The main advantage is its high reliability. The use of the spring ensures the electrical contacts are connected securely and with uniformity. This virtually eliminates any potential damage to the contact point and ensures positive retention of the connection. The contacts are secured in both the assembled and un-assembled state to prevent accidental disconnection.
Furthermore, the 818-22-008-10-004101 is hand assembled with thumb screws for fast and easy installation. With more than 20 pc of pin contacts per plug, they are ideal for applications requiring the transmission of large amounts of data.
Conclusion
The 818-22-008-10-004101 spring loaded connector is a reliable, positive-locking, hand-assembled connector that ensures quality mating. With its wide range of applications, it is an indispensable choice for many industries.
