TE Connectivity
Val-U-Lok connectors
Tyco Electronics has expanded its Val-U-Lok connector family with single-row, board-mount headers in both vertical and right-angle configurations.
The header assemblies come with pre-loaded contacts and may be installed on the printed circuit board manually or automatically using robotic equipment.
All housings are polarised for easier mating and locking latches are intended to help maintain reliable connections.
The Val-U-Lok connector system is a low-cost, wire-to-wire and wire-to-board connector system with a 4.2mm x 4.2mm centreline.
This system can be used in a variety of applications, including the heating, ventilation and air-conditioning (HVAC), vending, gaming and appliance industries.
Val-U-Lok connectors are low-cost connectors, intermateable with Amp-Duac connectors and Molex Mini-Fit Jr series connectors.
The single-row headers are available in three, four and five positions.
This system is available in UL 94 V-2 or UL 94 V-0 flammability-rated nylon with contacts in brass or phosphor bronze with tin or gold plating.
The connector system, an RoHS-compliant product to help promote a cleaner environment, is UL component recognised and CSA certified.
