956214-2720-AR-PT

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets have become increasingly popular in recent years due to their versatile usage and wide availability. The 956214-2720-AR-PT is a three-legged, two-pole, surface mount, crimp style connector tailored to fit today’s market needs for a connector that can last in a wide variety of environments.

The 956214-2720-AR-PT is designed with a single row of female sockets which are best suited for interconnecting two circuits or devices. The horizontal orientation of the receptacle allows for two pins (“center segment” and “nearest segment”) to connect to an opposite side closed circuit board. The center segment is for mating with a PCI-bus connector and the nearest segment is for connecting directly to a terminal.

The 956214-2720-AR-PT also features an advanced construction molded into a single body to protect and assure contact between side-by-side mating connectors. The shell of the connector is made of dielectric material with raised mating protrusions. This wedge-shaped protective sheath provides superior protection against dust, moisture, and chemical exposure. The protrusions also guard against accidental misconnections.

The 956214-2720-AR-PT can handle a current load of up to 18A at 125VAC. It has an insulation resistance of 1000MΩ (maximum) and a dielectric withstanding voltage of 500VAC and is UL approved. The 956214-2720-AR-PT is an ideal solution for applications in the industrial, electronic, medical, automotive, and general consumer markets and is especially useful in applications such as vending machines, pressure switches, and door security systems.

The 956214-2720-AR-PT provides maximum engagement with minimal insertion force. Its contact pin arrangement is conducive to one-sided interconnects using modular, crimp style wires which offer the ability to quickly and efficiently terminate, connect and disengage multiple wires. The highly reliable connection and excellent mating experience make the 956214-2720-AR-PT suitable for creating reliable connections in applications where field maintainability or opportunities to reconfigure connections are frequent.

In conclusion, the 956214-2720-AR-PT is a three-legged, two-pole, surface mount, crimp style connector designed to fit in a variety of applications. Its design makes it suitable for interconnecting two circuits, and its advanced protection device and pin arrangement make it highly reliable, protected from the environment and easy to terminate and connect. Its versatility and excellent performance make it an ideal choice for various applications in the industrial, electronic, medical, automotive, and general consumer markets.
