ELXH15100 Application Field and Working Principle

The ELXH15100 is a standard pluggable terminal block from Tyco Electronics Corporation that fit standard .100 or 2.54 mm PC card connector systems. It has an industry standard pin configuration, with the option of either vertical or right angle styles. The base part number is for the vertical version, and the “R” suffix denotes the right angle version. The pluggable system provides both gender and power connection with an operating temperature range of -55°C to +105°C. These terminal blocks are UL94V-0 rated and are currently shipping in seven standard colours.

The ELXH15100 is designed to meet a variety of customer connections in applications such as Industrial, Automotive, Telecommunications, and Consumer products. The pluggable system enables the user to quickly make connections between an array of components, such as integrated circuits, integrated devices, boards, or sensors.

The terminal block is a dual-in-line configuration, and the screwless design provides easy connection to wire. It requires a simple screwdriver and only one step to make a secure connection. The design is pluggable for easy insertion and removal of modules, and the terminal block has an optional lockable securing device that is especially useful when a higher degree of security is desired. The two-piece design is based on the correct mating of two independent pieces with an industry-standard pin format.

The standard pins are made of reinforced polyamide, and the terminal block is provided with two types of insulated covers (insulation sleeve and sealing boot). The insulation sleeve is to be used with the optional locking clamp, and it is designed to prevent electrical fault along the line. The sealing boot is designed to seal the housing against contaminant, and can be used in conjunction with the rubber gasket to provide direct contact between the two pieces.

The terminal block has an insertion cycling life of more than 4500 times, and it meets the requirements of both UL and VDE standards. The ELXH15100 provides a reliable connection system, with features such as high temperature resistance, high contact forces, and low contact resistance. The terminal block provides a reliable interface for a variety of applications, and is an excellent choice for applications requiring a high level of electrical and mechanical integrity.

The ELXH15100 is a highly versatile, easy to use pluggable terminal block, offering a wide range of capabilities and advantages. The two-piece design ensures reliable connections, and the pluggable system enables fast and easy connections. It is suitable for a variety of applications, and provides an efficient and cost-effective way to complete electrical and mechanical connections.
