Harwin to showcase Mil-Aero hi-rel connectors at Paris Air Show
Harwin is exhibiting at the Paris Air Show, Le Bourget, 15-21 June on Stand FG176 in Hall 2B. Harwin leads the way in Mil-Aero connectors and its Datamate, Gecko and M300 high-reliability connector systems are designed to withstand the severe shock, vibration and temperature conditions experienced in satellites, commercial and military aircraft, UAVs and spacecraft.
Harwin's M300 durable power connector family of high-density interconnects is based on a 3mm pitch and handles currents up to 10A. Designed for rugged environments, these durable interconnects offer superior electrical and mechanical performance. Able to withstand temperatures between -65degC and +175degC, they are rated for 1000 mating cycles, more than twice the number of older generation products. The M300 Series features keyway polarisation and identification of the no. 1 position for ease of mating. Jackscrews are available for extra security.
For high-rel applications where space and weight are critical, Gecko's dense pin spacing of 1.25mm and up to 50 contacts per connector achieves a 35 per cent space saving over other high-performance connectors such as Micro-D. These low-profile, dual row cable-to-board and board-to-board interconnects provide a high-reliability, high-performance, micro-miniature interconnect option and offer exceptional performance for their size, with a current rating of 2A per contact simultaneously and contact resistance of 20m©. Gecko connects have been specified on many successful projects and have won multiple awards.
Harwin's Datamate hi-rel connector family offers a broad range of board-to-board, board-to-cable and cable-to-cable options and includes the Datamate High-reliability/High performance 2mm pitch connector system. Proven in applications under extreme conditions, Datamate Hi-Rel features Harwin's 4-finger Beryllium Copper contacts to ensure continuity of connection, even under conditions of 100G shock, 40G bump and 10G vibrations. Maximum current is 3A.
The knowledgeable Harwin team will be on hand throughout the Paris Air Show to discuss customer requirements. To learn more about Harwin's Mil-Aero connectors, go to www.harwin.com.
