EDAC 516 Series 38-Way Receptacle, 8.5A, 3.81mm

The EDAC 516 Series 38-Way Receptacle is a high-performance connector solution designed for demanding industrial applications. This receptacle features a robust grey polycarbonate insulator that provides excellent electrical insulation and mechanical strength, ensuring long-term reliability in challenging environments. The connector is supplied with a locknut and polarizing hardware for secure and accurate mating, preventing misalignment and ensuring a stable connection.

The contacts are made from phosphor bronze alloy with a gold over nickel plating for the entire contact surface, offering superior conductivity and corrosion resistance. This ensures consistent signal integrity and durability even in harsh conditions. The receptacle has a current rating of 8.5A and a maximum contact resistance of 10mΩ, ensuring efficient power transmission with minimal losses.

Designed for robust performance, the connector can withstand 2000VAC at sea level and offers a minimum insulation resistance of 5000MΩ, providing excellent protection against electrical failures. It operates reliably in temperatures ranging from -65°C to +125°C, making it suitable for extreme environments.

Applications

Ideal for industrial equipment, this receptacle is compatible with 516 series socket contacts and features a 3.81mm pitch spacing for compact PCB layouts. With a 38-way configuration, it offers a versatile solution for complex wiring needs. The lightweight design (20 grams) and compact dimensions (33mm height, 22mm width, 2mm depth) allow for easy integration into space-constrained systems.
