HTSW-138-14-G-D

The HTSW-138-14-G-D is a rectangular connector, which belongs to a specific type of the larger family of connectors known as headers and male pins. This type of connection is used when processes involving electricity require two or more components to be connected together. Connections are made by establishing a physical connection between two components, usually through a metal contact, and an electrical connection is formed between them when an electrical current is passed through the metal contact.

Rectangular connectors like the HTSW-138-14-G-D are usually used when a particularly high level of power or current is required. They are designed to provide up to 75 volts and currents of up to 7 amperes, so are capable of powering and controlling larger, more powerful components. The HTSW-138-14-G-D itself is a two-position, angle mount connector with an integrated strain relief, designed to provide protection during assembly and disassembly, as well as providing additional insulation and connection stability. The contact retention clip featured on the connector is specifically designed to ensure reliable contact without ‘cold soldering’ during assembly, as well as providing reliable protection against mechanical shock and vibration.

When being used, the HTSW-138-14-G-D has a wide variety of applications. It is suitable for use as a connector, bridge or interface between two electrical components. As stated previously, because of its higher current and power capacity, it is particularly well-suited for more powerful components, such as motors and large power supplies. Its angle mount design also means that the connector is well-suited for use in tight spaces, making it a popular choice for using in confined spaces such as the walls of industrial machines or cars.

The working principle behind the HTSW-138-14-G-D connector is simple. All current supplied to the connector passes through a central contact before being split into two pathways, which are then re-united in a single output terminal. The functionality of this connector can be expanded significantly, however, when accompanied by a range of safety features. These safety features, such as surge-protection and short-circuit protection, work to protect the connected components from any potential overloads in current which could otherwise cause damage to the components.

In summary, the HTSW-138-14-G-D is a powerful and reliable rectangular connector designed for use in high-power applications. Its angle mount design makes it well-suited for use in tight spaces, and its features, such as its contact retention clip and integrated strain relief, ensure reliable and stable connections with adequate protection against mechanical shock, vibration and overloads. Overall, the HTSW-138-14-G-D is an excellent example of a high-quality and reliable rectangular connector.
