FCE17A15PE210

D-Sub Connectors

The FC17A15PE210 is a type of D-subminiature connector, commonly used for both data communications and electrical signals. This type of connectivity plug is especially useful for providing reliable signal transmission in confined spaces and other limited or rough environments. The connector also features high temperature range and durability for long-lived and consistent service in harder industrial applications.

Design

The FC17A15PE210 is a type of D-subminiature connector which consists of a metal connector shell, containing two rows of 15 pins each. It uses a threaded bayonet coupling mechanism for making removable electrical contacts, and can handle up to 5A at 250VAC with all contacts connected. This type of connector is also known as an Amphenol-D female connector, owing to its designer and manufacturer.

Applications

The FC17A15PE210 connector is used in many applications where low-level signals or power needs to be transmitted between two points. Its applications can be found primarily in the industrial sector, where it is used as a means of transmitting signals from industrial process control sensors and actuators. It is also used in computers and telecoms applications, as well as in medical equipment and devices.

The high-density design of this connector makes the FC17A15PE210 an ideal choice for situations where emergency-stop and similar safety systems must be connected while conserving space. With its wide range of applications and high degrees of reliability, the FC17A15PE210 is an invaluable option within the industrial sector.

Working Principle

The main goal of the FC17A15PE210 is to provide a means of securely connecting multiple electrical devices, ensuring reliable signal transmission and durability. This connector uses a threaded bayonet system to make its electrical contacts, with the threaded part threaded into the female socket and secured with a latching system during assembly. The contacts are held in place by a spring-like design which eases the process of insertion and ensures a secure connection.

Once the threaded section is correctly inserted, it creates an electrical and mechanical connection with the socket. The threaded design then locks the contacts in place and prevents them from being accidentally pulled loose, thus ensuring a reliable connection even under extreme temperatures and harsh environment conditions.
