B04B-PASK-1

B04B-PASK-1 Application Field and Working Principle

The B04B-PASK-1 type header connector from Omron Corporation is a low cost board-to-board, or board-to-cable, connection solution that uses a screw-free, double-lock mechanism to ensure strong mechanical and electrical connections. This lock type is ideal for applications such as office automation (OA) equipment, factory automation (FA) equipment, audio-visual (AV) equipment, and other applications where a reliable connection is necessary.

Features

The B04B-PASK-1 features a small 3.3mm pitch and double lock mechanism for fast mating and secure connection. The connector also includes an integrated polarization feature to ensure proper mating. The B04B-PASK-1 supports up to 20A per contact, and the locked header is IP67 rated for dustproof and watertight protection. The connector is available in 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 8 positions, with contact counts up to 16.

Application

B04B-PASK-1 type header connectors are widely used in many electronic devices such as OA equipment, FA equipment, AV equipment, and others. They are ideal for board-to-cable connections in tight spaces, and they are often used to provide power or signal in areas with limited room. Additionally, due to its reliable connection stability, this connector is suitable for applications that require multiple connection cycles and harsh environments.

Working Principle

The B04B-PASK-1 type header connector features a double lock mechanism which ensures a secure connection and easy mating. Once the connector cable is inserted into the assembly in the correct orientation, the double lock will safely press the inserted cable into place. When the header is inserted and mating is complete, the center poles of both mating connectors will be locked in place while the center poles of the male and female sides of the double lock will freely rotate.

The double locking mechanism eliminates the need for screws, and it ensures robust electrical connections without needing much maintenance or additional cost. Additionally, the integrated polarizing feature helps prevent misalignment during the mating process. The B04B-PASK-1 also has a current rating of up to 20A per contact, which makes it ideal for power and signal applications.

Conclusion

The B04B-PASK-1 type header connector from Omron is a secure, screw-free board-to-board or board-to-cable connection solution that provides reliable electrical and mechanical connections. It is a low cost, easy to use connector solution that is ideal for applications such as OA, FA, AV equipment, and other applications that require multiple connection cycles and a reliable connection. The double lock mechanism ensures a strong and secure connection, and the integrated polarization feature prevents misalignment when mating. The connector also offers a high current-carrying capacity of up to 20A per contact, making it suitable for power and signal applications.
