Introduction to SFW18S-2STE1LF FPC Connector

The SFW18S-2STE1LF is a flat flexible connector (FFC) designed to meet the rigorous needs of extreme medical and industrial environments. Constructed of high-strength stainless steel housing coated with a ridged PTFE sleeve, this connector is rated for a Class 1, Division 1 hazardous environment that would be encountered in ultra-hazardous conditions.

What is FPC Connector and its Application

Flat flexible connectors (FFCs) are flat cables with multiple pin contacts like conductive vias that are soldered together and then connected to a printed circuit board. The pin contacts are either gold or copper alloyed with nickel, tin or silver for a long-term durability. FFCs are used to connect electrical components in a variety of industrial settings, ranging from a single component, such as a chip resistor, to larger, more complex systems.The SFW18S-2STE1LF FPC connector is designed for use in a wide range of medical and industrial applications such as medical imaging and ultra-low light imaging. It can also be used for precision instrumentation and robotics and machine control applications in hazardous locales.

Features of SFW18S-2STE1LF FPC Connectors

The SFW18S-2STE1LF FPC connector features a unique design that protects the cables, prevents electrical, thermal and mechanical shock. It is highly durable with a copper-zinc alloy padding and stainless steel housing, making it resistant to corrosive environments and moisture. It has a high-temperature capability with a continuous operating temperature range of -20°C to +125°C. It also offers a lockable latch design, making it easy to use and secure in hazardous environments.The SFW18S-2STE1LF FPC connector also features two screws that provide uniform compression for secure connections. The screws are heat treated for maximum durability, making the connector suitable for long-term performance in harsh environments. Furthermore, the connector is shielded with a PTFE sleeve, shielding the internal conductors from EMI, RFI and other interference.

Working Principle of The SFW18S-2STE1LF FPC Connector

The working principle of the SFW18S-2STE1LF FPC connector is straightforward. The connector includes two pins that are solid plated together and connected to a printed circuit board. The pins are then soldered onto the board and when the small screws are tightened, the pins make electrical contact with the board and create a permanent connection.The SFW18S-2STE1LF FPC connector is designed for superior performance in harsh industrial and medical environments. Its rugged design ensures reliable and secure connections between electronic components, even in hazardous areas, and its shielded PTFE sleeve prevents interference from EMI, RFI and other sources of interference. Together, these features ensure reliable performance in any number of extreme conditions and settings.
