Questions that will help you better select the product that you need: What are the current and voltage requirements for your application? The power double lock connector system has a maximum current rating of 14 Amps per line and is rated for 300 Volts AC/DC wire-to-wire and 50 Volts AC/DC wire-to-board. What are the wire type and size requirements? The power double lock connector system is approved for use with 26-16 AWG wire with an insulation range between 1.3 mm and 3.1 mm. What are the number of positions and available space? The power double lock connector system is available in select positions (1-12) on four contact centerline spacings; 3.9 mm, 6.5 mm, 7.92 mm and 13.0 mm. The overall mated length of the free-hanging system is 38.7 mm and the maximum height of the wire-to-board system is 25.5 mm. plate. The purpose of the double lock plate is two-fold: 1) allows contacts to be fully seated in the housing and 2) it helps prevent the possibility of contact disengagement when wires are exposed to external pressure. Do you need to differentiate this connector from other connectors in the application? The power double lock connector system offers multiple optionsof colored housings for ease of connector identification during manufacturing and assembly. What is the benefit of choosing a header with a polarization peg (boss)? The power double lock connector system offers headers with or without polarization pegs. The purpose of this feature is to polarize the headers to the PCB so the header can not be placed on the PCB in the wrong orientation. For more information regarding PCB layout please refer to the header product drawing. What is the benefit of choosing a high force contact? The power double lock connector system offers high force contacts for use in applications where vibration is prominent. It is important to note that the high force contacts increase the amount of mating force. Refer to Product Specification 108-5410 for more information. What are the operating temperature requirements? The power double lock connector system has a maximum operating temperature of 105C. For more information regarding operating temperatures refer to Product Specification 108-5410. Is contact back-out a concern? Do you need confirmation that the contacts are seated? The power double lock connector system offers an optional double lock What is the benefit of choosing Lock Type II or Lock Type B (non-standard) latch? * Lock Type II is offered on the 3.96 mm plugs allowing for easier unmating (more finger room to depress the latch). * Lock Type B is offered on the 6.5 mm plugs providing a slightly lower profile and can be used when the application will not have to be unmated often.
