Working Principle

The working principle of the M80-4003405 rectangular connector relies on physical contact and electrical conductivity. The connector consists of two pieces – a header and a receptacle. The header is a male piece that inserts into the receptacle, which is a female piece. When the two pieces are mated, they form an electrical connection. The connection is completed when the metal pins on the header contact the metal receptacles on the receptacle.

The connector is designed so that the pins and receptacles are lined up perfectly. This allows for quick and easy connection and disconnection. The pins on the header and the receptacles on the receptacle maintain pressure contact with each other and the connector is locked in place with either screws or a wire latch. The latch or screw system ensures against accidental disconnection and vibration.

The M80-4003405 rectangular connector is designed for reliable automotive, marine, and industrial applications. It is both cost-effective and reliable, and provides a reliable and economical connection solution for processes and power supply systems.
