H3BXT-10112-Y4

Jumper wires are short lengths of insulated wire that can be used to make electrical connectivity or wiring between components and points on a circuit board. Pre-crimped leads are factory-made connections between two pieces of wire using a crimped connection. H3BXT-10112-Y4 is a type of Jumper Wires, Pre-Crimped Leads which has been widely used in various application fields. This article aims to introduce the application field and working principle of the H3BXT-10112-Y4.

Application Field

The H3BXT-10112-Y4 is mainly used in automotive, industrial, telecom, and professional audio/visual, among others. It is a jumper wire that is made of stranded copper wire, tinned with clean, low residue rosin flux for a strong connection, and insulated with thermoplastic elastomer (TPE, a type of plastic) extrusion. It is suitable for headers, terminal blocks, circuit boards, and all other standard wire-to-wire connection applications. Its unique feature is that the TPE insulation is heat resistant up to 150° Celsius and has a water-resistant rating of IP51. The wire is 28AWG, and is rated to 2A (amps). It may also be used in temperature and humidity sensing applications.

Working Principle

The principle of operation of the H3BXT-10112-Y4 is based on the principle of crimping. Crimping is a process of applying mechanical force to two or more items, such as wires, to make them mechanically connected to each other in a secure manner. It is a fast, cost-effective, and reliable way to form a strong electrical connection without the need for soldering. The H3BXT-10112-Y4 is a pre-crimped lead; meaning that the crimp is formed in the factory to ensure that it is consistently done correctly. The crimp is secured by a heat-shrink tubing which has a special adhesive lining that becomes activated when exposed to heat.

In addition, the insulation of the wire is also important to ensure that there is no electrical interference between connecting wires. The insulation is made of TPE which is resilient to 150°C of heat, highly resistant to water and has insulation resistance of at least 500MΩ (50kV) for a 4mm distance. This ensures that the wire will be safely insulated and protected from short-circuiting.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the H3BXT-10112-Y4 is an electrical jumper wire with a pre-crimped lead that has been widely used in automotive, industrial, and telecom applications. Its unique feature is that the insulation is made of a heat-resistant material with a water-resistant rating of IP51. Additionally, the crimp is secured with a heat-shrink tubing which ensures a strong electrical connection without the need for soldering.
