DIN-016CPE-RR1L-KR

Backplane connectors, such as the DIN 41612, are essential components for any system using a cabled backplane. The DIN 41612 system is a standardized high-density modular connector system with connectors in various sizes and shapes having a total of up to 64 contacts. The DIN 41612 system provides a wide range of interconnected system designs, especially in industrial segments such as process control, machine building, and communication systems.The DIN-016CPE-RR1L-KR is a 24 pin backplane connector from the DIN 41612 system. It is a single-row (R) connector with a pitch of 2.54mm (1/10") and an insertion depth of 8.05mm (0.32"). This connector system is designed to accommodate a locking mechanism that allows the contact connector to be more securely and accurately mated and unmated.

Application Field

The DIN-016CPE-RR1L-KR is used mostly in the medical field, where it is used to connect diagnostic, imaging, and therapeutic equipment. It is also used for printed circuit boards, computer backplanes, and in other data cabling applications. Its small size makes it suitable for use in tight spaces where the use of larger connectors might be impractical.

Working Principle

The DIN-016CPE-RR1L-KR uses a locking mechanism which works by providing a tension between the male and female connector. Once the connectors are mated, the locking mechanism acts as a safety feature, keeping the connections secure and preventing them from coming loose. The locking mechanism is activated by pressing down a lever on the male or female connector, after which the connectors will stay securely connected even if subjected to impacts or extreme vibrations.In addition to the locking mechanism, the DIN-016CPE-RR1L-KR also features a unique contact configuration which ensures a secure contact with all 24 pins. This contact configuration provides better signal integrity, reduced contact resistance, and higher contact current ratings. The contact configuration also minimizes the risk of accidental contact or contact contamination.

Conclusion

The DIN-016CPE-RR1L-KR is a 24 pin backplane connector from the DIN 41612 system. It is designed for medical, printed circuit board, computer backplane, and data cabling applications, offering improved signal integrity, reduced contact resistance, and higher contact current ratings. It is also equipped with a locking mechanism for increased security and protection against accidental disconnection or contact contamination.
