PPTC242LFBN

Rectangular Connectors - Headers, Receptacles, Female Sockets

The PPTC242LFBN is a common type of rectangular connector manufactured by Pulse. These connectors provide reliable and efficient connections for a range of applications and are usually used in equipment housed in panel boxes or other locations where a connection has to be made between two or more components. The PPTC242LFBN series is built to the CANTIV standard and is designed to meet a number of specifications including UL, CSA, and EN1186.

The PPTC242LFBN is a female socket connector that features two 50-position 2.54 mm SMT headers and a gold plated 7-position press-fit receptacle that is compatible with a wide range of wire sizes. The SMT headers are designed to be soldered to a PCB, and the receptacle offers secure connections for a variety of wire sizes. The receptacle also provides 90 degrees of flexibility on the wire as it is inserted into the terminal block, ensuring a secure connection no matter where the wire is routed.

The PPTC242LFBN is a useful tool in applications where secure connections between two components are required. They are often found in the areas of communication, computer networking, consumer electronics, healthcare, industrial controls, automotive, and aerospace. These connectors are also used in robotics, surveillance systems, and printed circuit board assemblies. They are designed to be reliable in a wide range of environments and temperatures and are ideal for making connections in locations such as shops, warehouses, and factories.

The PPTC242LFBN is a durable, high-quality connector that can be reliable in a range of applications. It is designed for a working temperature range of -55°C to +105°C and is rated for IP68 protection. It features a strain relief that is designed to ensure that the cable connection will remain secure even in tough environments. The terminal block also features a clear identification strip that is quick and easy to read, making it easier to determine which wire needs to be connected.

The PPTC242LFBN operates on a working principle that is based on a mechanical clamping action. This action ensures that the connection between the terminals and the cable is secure and strong. It also features a snap in retention feature that enables the connector to be locked in place and prevents it from becoming accidentally disconnected. The terminals have an integrated corrosion protection to ensure that they last for a long time.

Overall, the PPTC242LFBN is an excellent choice for a wide range of applications where secure electrical connections are required. Its design ensures reliability and durability, and the integrated strain relief and snap in retention features make it an ideal choice for making secure connections in tough environments.
