917994-1

The 917994-1 rectangular connector housing is a signal transmission device designed to mechanically and electrically link two PCBs together or otherwise join them externally. This connector is commonly used for applications that require a reliable a connection with tight manufacturing requirements. It is suitable for a variety of industrial and commercial applications that call for a specific connector solution.

Physical Design

The 917994-1 connector housing is designed as a round connector with a plastic shell constructed from a polycarbonate material. It is 10.5mm in diameter with a height of 16mm. There are six contact pins, with two located on each side, and two pins that are inserted into the sides of the shell. The contact pins are made of copper, and either solder or crimp onto the PCB. The contacts feature an EPDM O-ring for environmental protection.

Working Principle

The 917994-1 connector housing relies on the physical contact of the pin on the mating connector to create electrical connectivity between the devices. The connector housing’s metal body is designed to shield against external electrical noise. The contact pins are designed to allow for a tight mechanical connection and reduce potential for mechanical fatigue. It is rated for 250 volts ac/dc and 4.5 amperes.

Application Fields
