Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins
926141-01-11-EU Application Field and Working Principle
The 926141-01-11-EU application field and working principle is the use of vertical pins and metal rectangular slots in combination to provide reliable electrical connection of nearby items, wherever a neat and safe link is desirable. This type of connector is also known as a header because of its characteristic appearance. This connection is particularly suitable for applications where motion must be considered, such as in the manufacture of motor vehicles and industrial automation. The pins and slots are firm and provide a secure connection. In contrast, other types of connectors, such as round, may not be able to provide a secure connection in an environment that involves significant movement.
The working principle of these connectors is the use of pressure on pins to make sure that electrical contact is established in a safe way. The pins are designed to be durable and strong so they are able to cope with significant forces and remain in good condition for a long period of time. The pins are usually made of metal and can be protected with plastic or rubber to prevent shorting. A layer of rubber or plastic is also added for shock and vibration insulation.
The connectors are available in a variety of sizes and a range of configurations, with pins in vertical, diagonal, horizontal or in combinations of these angles. This means that designers have a variety of options for linking devices, depending on their needs. The highest rated connectors are rated according to their current-carrying capability and their potential for heat dissipation. The connectors can also incorporate protection for over-current and short-circuit scenarios, giving further safety benefits.
The connectors are commonly used in applications where the environment needs to be tightly sealed. This may include appliance and construction equipment, motor machinery and automotive applications. The 926141-01-11-EU series is rated IP68, which indicates that it’s suitable for use in environments with a high level of dust or water exposure. This makes them an idea choice for use in industrial environments or applications that involve inclement weather.
The design of the 926141-01-11-EU series is such that the pins and slots can be separated without tools. This makes it easy to clean, maintain and replace components. This means that the connectors can be used in a range of applications where maintenance or replacement need to be performed quickly.
In conclusion, the use of 926141-01-11-EU application field and working principles offers many benefits in terms of reliability, safety and ease of maintenance. They are versatile and have a range of applications in the automotive, industrial and appliance sectors. With its protection against dust and high levels of water exposure, this connector is a great choice for a wide range of needs.
