In this article, Phoenix Contact highlights its commitment to continuous improvement by introducing purchasers to the features and benefits of its SPC 4 connector series.
The SPC 4 connector series is designed to be compact while performing to high power and function densities. With a 4 mm²wire space, 6.35 mm pitch and 16.6 mm height, it helps save space on a device while offering the capacity to operate to 24 A and 1000 V. The series offers a solution for design engineers looking for optimal performance on the smallest footprint.
Optional features include an innovative shield contact design which helps save space on the device front with its integrated shield connection direct to the printed circuit board.
The SPC 4 series is multi-variant with two separate types of locking mechanism. The first type is top lock and the second type is middle flange. This lets designers choose the best solution for their design. Both types ensure a safe, reliable connection while enabling a high packing density.
With enhanced touch protection on the SPC 4 connector and PC 4 header, this all-round solution offers extra safety.
SPC 4 series connectors offer efficiency thanks to the PC 4 series headers’ suitability for THR solderable processes which enable automated assembly. PC 4 headers can be supplied in box and taped/reeled packaging, offering customers greater manufacturing choice which helps speed up production and reduce costs.
Headers come in three different mounting orientation options for increased product design flexibility: 90 deg vertical, 0 deg horizontal and 180 deg horizontal.
Phoenix Contact is committed to creating new and innovative products so customers can design, create and manufacture the latest products to the highest standards. The company works closely with its approved distribution network to make sure customers have the right supply route, service level and product availability.
