DNG18-188FB-3K Connectors, Interconnects

Terminals - Quick Connects, Quick Disconnect Connectors play an important role in modern industries as they allow rapid connection or disconnection of mechanical systems, machines, and cables. The DNG18-188FB-3K is a connector that falls into the category of quick connect or quick disconnect connectors. The DNG18-188FB-3K is designed to quickly and reliably connect and disconnect a wide variety of electrical systems, cables, and devices.

The DNG18-188FB-3K is a male/female 2 pin/way connector system. It is designed to meet IP68 water-tight requirements in environments with high levels of moisture and dust. The gold plated contact pins are 14-18 AWG and are designed for operation up to 0-6 Amps. The spring-loaded pins ensure a secure and reliable connection, and are designed to reduce “wire pull out” and “termination failure”. The built in strain reliefs in the plastic housing provide a secondary locking mechanism to ensure the pins remain fixed to the connector body.

The DNG18-188FB-3K’s wide application field range from machine control, metering, automotive, and audio applications. It is capable of providing a robust connection in environments with high vibrations, and its one piece fluid proof design allows it to be used in applications where moisture is present such as HVAC/R, refrigeration, etc. The DNG18-188FB-3K is also well-suited for use in outdoor applications due to its water-tight construction, providing reliable connection in even the most extreme conditions.

The working principle of the DNG18-188FB-3K is relatively simple. The connector is comprised of a plastic housing with two gold plated contact pins. When the connector is mated with the female counterpart, the male pins are inserted into the female contact and a spring mechanism locks the pins into place. This ensures that once mated the two connectors remain securely connected and prevents inadvertent disconnection. The spring-loaded nature of the pins also ensure that the connection is not disrupted by vibration or external forces.

In summary, the DNG18-188FB-3K is an ideal quick connect/disconnect connector for a wide variety of applications. Its one piece fluid proof design, reliable connection, and water-tight construction makes it a great choice for use in a variety of medium to high intensity applications. The simple operation and ease of use ensure that the connector is a quick and reliable way to link multiple systems and devices in a variety of environments.
