HMTSW-106-08-T-S-118-NA

The HMTSW-106-08-T-S-118-NA Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins is a device with a wide range of applications from computers and communications networks to control systems in aerospace and aviation./ It is also widely used in industries such as renewable energy and automotives. Allowing the transfer of electrical power, data or signals between cables, connectors or assemblies, these connectors come in various shapes and sizes to suit the needs of the end user.

HMTSW-106-08-T-S-118-NA is one type of a header that is particularly suited for automated processes. It features board-to-board and wire-to-board male pins that are screwed together with shielded terminals. It is designed to ensure reliable connections in the most challenging environments, including those with extreme temperatures, vibration, dust, and liquids.

The working principle behind this connector is simple. It consists of two mating connectors, each of which has a series of male pins. When the pins on the mating connectors are brought together, they form an electromechanical connection, moving one part slightly relative to the other. This action is what enables power, data, or signals to be transferred between them.

The male pins of HMTSW-106-08-T-S-118-NA are made from rod-shaped metal pins that are just over 3mm in diameter. The pins are securely mounted in the connector body without protruding from either side, thus enabling a watertight and reliable connection. These pins can be inserted into the receptacles of another connector and affix themselves with a plastic screw.

The shielded terminals make use of a metal spring contact that is either attached to the backplate of the connector or positioned between the cable braid and housing. The metal spring contact is designed to form an electrical bridge between the cable and connector contacts, thus providing additional protection from EMI/RFI interference. For better performance and longevity, each pin is insulated with a thermoplastic polymer. This insulation is also fire-resistant, which increases the safety factor of the connector.

In conclusion, the HMTSW-106-08-T-S-118-NA Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Male Pins is a high-performance device that is designed for automated processes and challenging environments. Its male pins ensure reliable and consistent connections, while the shielded terminals eliminate EMI/RFI interference and increase the overall safety of the connection.
