861400362YO2LF

8614 00362YO2LF is a type of rectangular connector, commonly known as a header, male pin. It is designed for use in luxury automotive markets such as the high end Infiniti and Acura models. The connector is also used in industrial applications such as factory automation equipment and various other complex systems such as robotics and control systems.

The 8614 00362YO2LF standard is a 12-pin plug connection and a 4-pin socket connection. This is the same plug and socket combination used on many Infiniti and Acura vehicles from model year 2002 to present.

The manufacturer of 8614 00362YO2LF contends that this type of connection is much more reliable than traditional ribbon cable and wire-wrap connection methods. The key feature of this connector is that it is a sealed system with a higher level of dust and moisture resistance than the ribbon cable and wire-wrap methods. This helps prevent rusting and corrosion of the pins and sockets.

The 8614 00362YO2LF connector also provides reliable connectivity when dealing with high-frequency signals, such as those encountered when using sophisticated diagnostic systems. The connection is also able to provide and sustain a much larger current than ribbon cable and wire-wrap connections. This is important when dealing with high-amperage relay systems.

The 8614 00362YO2LF connector consists of two parts - a plug and a socket. The plug is a 12-pin unit that is inserted into a receptacle. The socket is a 4-pin unit that attaches to the plug. The two units are locked together with a pins-and-socket retainer.

The 8614 00362YO2LF connector is designed with a twist-lock action. When the plug is inserted into the socket, the pins and sockets are firmly locked in place. In order to disconnect the connection, the plug must be twisted counter-clockwise and then removed.

The 8614 00362YO2LF connector is also available in various other configurations such as 8-pin, 14-pin, 16-pin, etc. The 8-pin version is typically used for throttle and emissions sensors in automotive applications and the 16-pin version is used for transmission control.

The 8614 00362YO2LF connector is an example of an increasingly popular type of connection that is used in many high-end applications. Its sealed design and ability to handle high frequencies and a large current make it ideal for many industrial and automotive applications. The twist-lock design offers reliable and secure connectivity that is much more durable than traditional ribbon and wire-wrap designs.
