PPPC142KFMS

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

The PPPC142KFMS is a rectangular header and receptacle that is frequently used for applications requiring higher current than most other pre-molded connectors. Available with through-hole and surface mount, this connector is a very versatile solution for many industries, especially those in the aerospace, medical, telecommunications, or electronics sector.

The PPPC142KFMS connector is designed for use in harsh, outdoor environments or indoors with a variety of other challenging conditions. For example, it has proven performance in extreme temperatures, with capabilities up to +125 °C. This makes it suitable for even the most extreme applications, such as those in aerospace, military, and medical research. It has the added benefit of providing protection from dust and water according to IEC 60529 standard, and also provides superior resistance to vibration and shock.

The PPPC142KFMS is a two-piece, molded PVC unit, which includes the female cable holder, the female socket, and four solid-state contacts. It features a high dielectric strength of 500V, along with gold-plated contacts and tin-plated shells to ensure a stable connection year after year. The highly reliable snap-in locking system ensures a secure fit, and the durable plastic design makes it ideal for a range of industrial applications.

The PPPC142KFMS offers a wide range of features that make it an excellent choice for various applications. It’s available in both straight and right angled configurations, and it is designed to accept a wide range of cables with diameters up to 6.0mm. The socket design allows for easy and fast installation and removal, and the variation in the current carrying capacity can be adjusted to different loads. The connector’s guide slot provides protection against connector misalignment, while the additional shields offer protection against EMI/RFI.

PPPC142KFMS’s working principle is simple yet effective. When a mating connector is inserted into the socket, the plastic sleeve slides across the contacts and prevents the connector from backing out or disconnecting. The contact pins at the opening of the socket make contact with the corresponding pins on the other end, establishing a secure and reliable connection. Additionally, the gold-plated contacts ensure a low level of contact resistance, allowing for an efficient, reliable signal transfer.

As its name suggests, the PPPC142KFMS is a very versatile product that can be used in many different applications. It has been designed to provide high performance, easy integration, and reliable connections in both extreme and challenging environments. Thanks to its low profile, reliable design, and capable current carrying capacity, the PPPC142KFMS is an excellent choice for a variety of demanding applications.
