Terminal Blocks - Headers, Plugs and Sockets

The K5215151000 terminal block range consists of headers, plugs and sockets. All three types offer a wide range of solutions from simple connectors to complex interconnect systems, enabling electrically safe and reliable power and signal connections. K5215151000 is a universal standard that allows manufacturers to quickly and easily plug any component, regardless of size, into the wide range of interconnect headers. The terminals are designed to provide cost-effective electrical wiring, corrosion resistance, signal integrity, and electromagnetic interference protection.

Application Field

K5215151000 is suitable for a variety of applications. For example, electric power and control equipment, switchgear, electronics, computer storage, and telecommunications equipment, medical devices, automotive, aerospace, and other harsh environments all require these connectors. These headers can also be used to connect LEDs, heaters, pumps, and other medium to low power equipment.They play a vital role in reducing installation time and costs.

Working Principle

The K5215151000 basically consists of a pair of plugs and sockets arranged in a standard, symmetrical configuration. These plugs and sockets are designed to interlock and make an electrical connection. The plug contacts consist of metal blades that are crimped to the printed circuit board (PCB) and the socket has corresponding contact receptacles for the blades. When the plug and socket are mated, the contact blades slide into the socket and complete the electrical connection.

Once the connection is made, the plugs and sockets are secured through two positioning screws, which can be tightened or loosened to lock or release the connector. The screws keep the connection intact, even while the plugs and sockets are subject to vibrations and other external forces. K5215151000 can also be combined with other types of interconnects, such as fuses, jumpers, and headers, to provide complex wiring solutions for a wide range of electronic applications.
