BHR-05VS-1 Connectors, Interconnects

Rectangular Connectors - Housings

The BHR-05VS-1 is an industrial standard rectangular connector which uses tinplated brass as its material. It is suitable for applications requiring higher electrical performance and economy. It is designed as per the interface requirements of the international IEC 61671 standard. It is fully compatible with DIN 41612, VITA 46 and MIL-E-75294 connectors.

Application Field

The BHR-05VS-1 connector is widely used in a variety of industrial applications. Its connectable housings are suitable for a variety of media interfaces such as audio, video, power, signal and data transmission. Suitable cable sizes range from 5 to 34 mm and it has a wide range of mounting possibilities. This versatile connector is used especially in iron and steel plants, the energy and water sectors and for automotive applications.

Working Principle

The BHR-05VS-1 connector works by connecting two pieces of metal together in a sealed case. A contact system such as slot/slot, slot/pin, pin/slot, and pin/pin connector boards are available and offer reliable and secure connections. The contacts are constructed from tinplated brass, and the housings are made from plastic or metal materials. The hermeticity of the connectors meets the international standards of IP66, IP 68 and IP 69.

The terminal contacts are usually crimped on the contact strip of the cable. This allows the ready connection with the terminal, let it be male or female. The mating surfaces have self-centering guides, which allows a precise and efficient connection. The bottom cover for the female terminals ensure a higher contact force between the plugs. With the protection class IP 67, the contacts are protected against dust and the external environment.

The BHR-05VS-1 connectors are designed for solvent-free soldering, thanks to the protective plastic film which covers the contact surfaces. This reduces wear and tear, improves the electrical performance of the connector and eliminates the risk of corrosion. The soldering process is done easily and quickly – in just 10 seconds per contact.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the BHR-05VS-1 connector offers excellent performance for industrial applications, due to its high current rating, good contact resistance and reliable mechanical properties. The wide range of potential applications, mounting possibilities and IP rating on the connector make it a perfect choice for many projects. Additionally, it is easy to use, thanks to its self-centering installation, and the superior soldering process.
