Wire to Board Crimp style Connectors VLS-03V

Product Description

Product Introduction

The VLS-03V Wire to Board Crimp style Connector represents a meticulously engineered solution for demanding electrical circuits requiring substantial current transfer. Originally conceptualized around a robust 6.2 mm pitch framework for wire-to-wire and wire-to-board configurations, this specific disconnectable connector series is purpose-built to handle large current loads safely and efficiently. When handling physical connections on the assembly line, the tactile click of the housing engagement provides immediate acoustic and physical feedback to the operator, confirming a secure mate without the need for excessive force.

A critical element of this design is the integration of a specialized secondary retainer. This retainer mechanism physically blocks the contacts from backing out, effectively eliminating the risk of insufficient insertion or accidental contact dislodgement during intense operational vibrations. By ensuring the contacts remain firmly seated inside the smooth, rigid thermoplastic housing, the connector guarantees that large current circuits can be maintained with absolute certainty and safety, preventing localized heating or electrical arcing. The housing material feels solid in the hand, designed to withstand the mechanical stresses of manual assembly while maintaining precise dimensional stability over years of continuous operation.

Product Advantage

Whether your design requires specific side or top entry routing, the crimp-style termination allows for precise, clean, and adaptable harness construction.
• Global Certification and Environmental Compliance: Every unit is rigorously tested and holds esteemed international certifications, including UL, CSA, and TÜV. Furthermore, strict adherence to RoHS and REACH directives guarantees that the materials are environmentally responsible, facilitating smooth entry for your finished assemblies into regulated international markets.
• Dedicated After Sales Service: Backed by a comprehensive technical support network, users receive ongoing assistance from integration planning through to final production, ensuring any engineering challenges are swiftly resolved.

Technical Parameters

To facilitate precise engineering integration, the core specifications of the VL series are detailed below. These parameters represent the tested and verified operational limits of the connector system. The 2.5mm pitch specification for this particular disconnectable type ensures a compact footprint while maintaining the necessary dielectric separation for its rated loads. The crimp style termination guarantees a gas-tight electrical interface, which is critical for maintaining the maximum 3A current rating without localized resistance buildup.

The combination of a MAX 250V rated voltage and a MAX 3A rated current makes this connector highly versatile. It provides engineers with the confidence that the component will not suffer from dielectric breakdown or thermal overload when deployed within these specified limits, ensuring the longevity of the entire electrical assembly.

Product Uses

The structural rigidity and electrical dependability of this connector make it an indispensable component across several demanding sectors. Its design directly addresses the physical and electrical challenges found in complex mobile and industrial machinery.

1. Automotive Industry Integration: Automotive Connectors are widely used in the automotive industry due to their exceptional resistance to environmental stressors. Vehicles are subjected to constant vibration, fluctuating extreme temperatures, and exposure to various chemical agents. This connector is heavily utilized throughout automotive manufacturing because its inner secure locking device and secondary retainer prevent accidental disconnections during vehicle operation. From dashboard electronics to internal power distribution modules, it provides the fail-safe reliability required for modern, electronics-heavy vehicle architectures.
2. Complex Harness Assemblies: In the realm of custom wire harness manufacturing, consistency and ease of assembly are paramount. Automotive Connectors are highly favored for Harness assemblies, allowing technicians to rapidly crimp and insert terminals with a satisfying, audible click that confirms proper seating. The visual confirmation provided by the secondary retainer ensures quality control is maintained during rapid assembly. The ergonomic design reduces operator fatigue during mass production, while the high current rating makes these harnesses suitable for a wide array of power delivery applications, from industrial control panels to complex internal wiring systems.
