MLX Connectors

MLX Power Connectors provide a cost-effective solution for various industrial applications in wire-to-board and wire-to-wire combinations and offer greater design flexibility in mating with existing wire harnesses, connectors and PCB headers.

Product Highlights


Current:Circuits:Max. Pitch:
13.5A, 20.0A1 - 156.35mm

Features and Benefits


Fully isolated terminals:
Protect against potential damage of the contacts during handling and mating and provides electrical isolation

Circular contacts and positive locking of terminals:
Ensure terminals are fully seated in the housing to reduce terminal back-out

Industry-standard plugs, caps and terminals:
Allow for design flexibility

Plugs are available in panel mount and free-hanging versions:
Potentially reduces costs by enabling use of smaller PCBs with fewer drilled holes

Polarized cap and plug housings:
Helps caps and plugs mate in one alignment

Terminals and headers available in Gold and Tin plating:
Deliver different cost options while meeting performance needs

Design-flexible plugs and housings:
Allow easy design into wire-to-board applications

Positive-lock housing:
Ensures mated connector assemblies will

Split-pin design of male terminals:
Potentially reduces mating forces

Overview


Design engineers sometimes are limited in their projects with trying to meet performance goals and be cost-effective at the same time. MLX Power Connectors have housing that will accept male or female terminals and offer terminals and headers in Gold and Tin plating.

Mis-mating causes delays in the process which leads to time loss and additional costs. Keying and polarizing features of the MLX Power Connectors allow the operators to avoid mis-mating during the assembly process, saving time and cost.

High mating force causes less life span of connectors. MLX Power Connectors offer a split-pin design for male terminals that is suitable for reducing the mating force.
