DIN 41612 / IEC 60603-2 Female Connectors New Design
ERNI introduces a new design of its female DIN connectors.The
new design offers the following advantages:
• Reduction of press-in force by approx. 25%, using the new
„Eye of the Needle“ pressfit zone. This leads to lesser strain
towards the PCB.
• 100% controlled quality of the pins due to consequent usage
of Automated Optical Inspection during the manufacturing pro-
cess.
• Partial and mixed loading possible.
Available termination lengths:
Solder: 2.5 mm; 3.7 mm; 4.0 mm; 13.0 mm; 17.0 mm
Pressfit: 2.9 mm; 4.0 mm; 5.5 mm; 13.0 mm w. Transfer
Zone; 17.0 mm w. Transfer Zone
Wire Wrap: 13.0 mm; 17.0 mm
• Dimensions of insulation bodies remain unchanged for
backwards compatibility.
• Fixation clip or retaining loop for efficient mounting of the
connector when soldering is selectable in all positions.
• Solder stop versions, preventing a rising of the solder up
into the housing, available on request for type B and C con-
nectors.
• Transfer zone contacts are selectable for all versions.
• A simple coding mechanism, by using coding strips, is stan-
dard on all type B, C, E and CD connectors.
• The THR versions are made of a high temperature resistant
material which makes them suitable for reflow soldering.
