ESS-131-T-28

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets are electrical connectors used to provide quick and reliable connections between electrical circuits. The ESS-131-T-28 is one of the most common rectangular connectors in use today. This article will discuss the application field and working principle of the ESS-131-T-28.

Application Field

The ESS-131-T-28 is a high-reliability, low-profile, top-entry Half-Pitch Converter (HPC) Rectangular Connector. It features a dual row board-to-cable interface that is designed to meet the requirements of a wide variety of applications, including automotive and industrial equipment. The ESS-131-T-28 has a soldering tail construction that gives off more moisture-resistant and better connection to the board compared to the other similar connectors in the market. The connector has a unique locking system which prevents the accidental removal of the header from the board when performing service or replacement.

The ESS-131-T-28 is suitable for a diverse range of applications including automation tools, home appliances, lighting, office automation, and public transportation.

Working Principle

The ESS-131-T-28 uses a distinctive, convenient, and reliable 2-point connection to make electrical connections. This connector houses two rows of contacts that are soldered directly to a printed circuit board (PCB). A rectangular plastic shroud (cover) covers the contacts and prevents shorting and foreign objects from entering the connection. The shroud helps provide additional strain relief for the soldered joint and provides stable insulation and secure connections.

When connecting an ESS-131-T-28 connector, two simple steps must besequential. Firstly, connect the female terminals of the connector to the male pins of the PCB. Secondly, secure the plastic cover to the connector. Once securely fixed, the ESS-131-T-28 connector is ready for use.

The ESS-131-T-28 offers a reliable means of making electrical connections on printed circuit boards, while also providing a high degree of durability and flexibility. With its unique locking system, reliable connection, and convenient two-point connection, the ESS-131-T-28 is an ideal choice for a variety of applications and environments.
