PowerStrip™ 20 UPT Series, Blade Type Power Connector Assemblies

Blade Type Power Connectors are specialized devices specifically engineered to handle high-power demands. These connectors feature contacts with a distinctive blade-style design, which allows for efficient power transmission. The key characteristics of Blade Type Power Connectors include connector style, connector type, number of positions, pitch, and mounting type. Connector style refers to the overall appearance and design of the connector, which may vary depending on the manufacturer and application requirements. Connector type specifies the specific type of connector used in the blade-style design, ensuring compatibility with corresponding mating connectors. Number of positions indicates the total number of electrical contacts or terminals within the connector. This determines the maximum number of conductors that can be connected using the connector. Pitch denotes the distance between adjacent contacts or terminals within the connector. The pitch measurement ranges from 0.079 inches (2.00mm) to 0.440 inches (11.18mm). The pitch measurement is crucial for proper alignment and connection between mating connectors. Mounting type describes the method by which the connector is mounted or attached within a system. Blade Type Power Connectors can be mounted using various methods, including board edge mounting, free hanging (cable-to-cable connection), panel mounting, surface mounting, and through-hole mounting. By offering a range of pitch options and mounting types, Blade Type Power Connectors provide flexibility and versatility for installation and integration into different systems and applications. In summary, Blade Type Power Connectors are designed to handle high-power requirements and feature contacts with a blade-style design. The connector's characteristics, including connector style, connector type, number of positions, pitch, and mounting type, ensure compatibility and facilitate their use in various power applications.
