PZC18SGBN

Rectangular Connectors, such as headers, male pins, and female sockets, are often used for board-to-board connectors, cable-to-board connectors, or cable-to-cable connections. The PZC18SGBN series rectangular connectors are the latest in the PZC family of connectors, with an enhanced number of contacts, improved mechanical integrity, and greater reliability than traditional connectors. These connectors feature four-point contact design with improved contact retention force, plug retention, and mating overvoltage protection.

The PZC18SGBN series connectors come with various mating options as headers or male pins. The headers have different numbers of pins (from 2 to 15) and can be used for board-to-board applications. The male pins are slightly larger than the headers and are typically soldered to a cable and used for cable-to-board or cable-to-cable connections. The choice of header or male pins depends on the application needs.

The PZC18SGBN series connectors feature a fixed pin contact design, which is designed to ensure user safety by providing additional contact retention force. The contact retention force can be increased up to 3N when the mated connectors are pulled apart. This helps prevent accidental disconnection in applications where high vibration may be present. The 4-point contact design ensures improved pin alignment, reducing contact resistance and resulting in better current capacity.

The PZC18SGBN series connectors also have an improved operating voltage rating of 100V AC/DC, helping to accommodate higher-voltage applications. The operating temperature range is -55°C to +125°C and ensures better performance in a variety of applications and environments. The connectors offer excellent resistance against shock, vibration, and corrosion which provides improved reliability and longer life when compared to standard connectors.

In summary, the PZC18SGBN series rectangular connectors are versatile and reliable connectors that can be used in a variety of applications. The fixed pin contact design offers improved contact retention force and operating voltage rating, making it well-suited for high-vibration applications. The operating temperature range and corrosion resistance make them a perfect choice for outdoor applications. Finally, the improved pin alignment ensures better current capacity.
