■ Features

1. 30 A maximum current

Single position connector can carry current of 30 A with #10 AWG conductor. Please refer to Table #1 for current ratings for multi position connectors using other conductor sizes.

2. Complete Locking Function

Reliable interior lock protects mated connectors from accidental disconnection.

3. Prevention of Incorrect Connections

To prevent incorrect connection when using multiple connectors having the same Number of contacts, 3 product types having different mating configurations are available.

4. Molded-in contact retention tabs

Handling of terminated contacts during the crimping is easier and avoids entangling of wires, since there are no protruding metal tabs.

5. Prevention of incorrect board placement

Built-in posts assure correct connector placement and orientation on the board.

6. Supports encapsulation

Connectors can be encapsulated up to 10 mm without affecting the performance.

7. Prevention of Short Circuits Between Adjacent Contacts

Each Contact is completely surrounded by the insulator housing electrically isolating it from adjacent contacts.

8. Increased Retention Force of Crimped Contacts and confirmation of complete contact insertion

Separate contact retainers are provided for applications where extreme pull-out forces may be applied against the wire or when a visual confirmation of the full contact insertion is required.

9. Full Line of Crimp Socket Contacts

Realizing the market needs for multitude of different applications, Hirose has developed several variants of crimp socket contacts and housings. Continuous development is adding different variations. Contact your nearest Hirose Electric representative for latest developments.

10. In-line Connections

Connectors can be ordered for in-line cable connections. In addition, assemblies can be placed next to each other allowing 4 position total (2 ∞ 2) in a small space.

11. Listed by UL, C-UL, and TÜV.

■ Applications
