DF62 series [SignalBee™] slim In-Line/THT connectors

The DF62 series is low profile, with a pitch of 2.2 mm connector series. The mated dimensions of the plug and socket are only 18.6 mm in length and height. The width is under 10 mm. The connector outline is contoured to prevent the connector from being trapped in small areas during the wire process.   

The position lock guarantees secure locking and gives a clear tactile sensation and an audible click to confirm the correct engagement. The lock strength is an impressive 50 N despite its small size. The visible lock structure has a slot to allow a visual check of complete mating.    

Highly reliable crimp contacts provide strong resistance against rough operation and vibration. The box-shaped contact head of the female contact works as a mating guide to align the male contact, enabling smooth mating and the prevention of contact buckling. Furthermore, the crimp contact has two special contact points that protrude slightly to follow the surface of the male contact during the mating process giving a more durable connection. The lance area of the crimp contact is reinforced to prevent the cable from being pulled out. The lance strength is 25 N/pin using AWG 28 cable.   

New versions have been introduced, such as DF62C, which has a lock guard to protect the lock from being ensnared in exceptionally tight spaces. A panel mount type plug DF62P is also available to allow the plug to be snapped into a panel.   

The DF62 series is a member of the SignalBee family, which consists of Wire-to-Wire and Wire-to-Board connectors designed to deliver high-end performance in a compact size. The various configurations provide the best solution to meet the user’s application requirements.
