ESQT-143-03-S-T-375

The ESQT-143-03-S-T-375 rectangular connector is a female socket from the Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets product category of rectangular connectors. This connector is designed for product manufacturing requiring high performance, precision, and functionality. It is commonly used in joining two pieces of equipment in industries such as industrial automation, automotive, and medical device manufacturing.

Design and Materials

The ESQT-143-03-S-T-375 is constructed of molded, impact-resistant nylon 6/6 – UL 94V-2. The female socket contacts are constructed of bronze with a tin plating. This contact material provides reliable electrical performance and improved corrosion resistance. The socket pocket is concentrically drilled to ensure connection stability and highly accurate, consistent assembly and mating with the contacts.

Performance

The ESQT-143-03-S-T-375 female socket is rated for a current rating of 19 Amps, operating temperature range of -34°F to +185°F, a voltage rating of 300 Volts, and a mating cycle life of 500 cycles.

Working Principle

This socket is inserted into a PCB for mounting. The contacts then mate with a vertical male insert and hold them together. Mating and un-mating occur when the insert is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise. The contact pins make an electrical connection when the two are mated, allowing power to flow between them. The female socket is used to extend the connections from the male insert, allowing them to be connected to the desired device.

Applications

The ESQT-143-03-S-T-375 female socket is suitable for a variety of applications including industrial automation, automotive, and medical device manufacturing. Industrial automation applications include machine safety systems, lighting, power, and industrial control equipment. Automotive applications include vehicle body electronics, manual and automatic transmissions, motor and starter control systems, and automotive HVAC system controls. Medical device applications include medical imaging, medical recorders, medical sensors, and medical monitoring.

Conclusion

The ESQT-143-03-S-T-375 female socket is a popular choice for applications that require high performance, precision, and functionality. It is constructed of molded, impact-resistant nylon 6/6, and the contacts are constructed of bronze with a tin plating for improved corrosion resistance.
