Molex PowerWize 3.40mm Interconnects
Molex PowerWize 3.40mm Interconnects leverage Coeur socket technology to deliver power efficiency crucial for cost management. These high-power connectors feature right-angle and vertical pin-in-paste reflow-capable headers, providing manufacturing flexibility and superior electrical performance. Two mechanically keyed color options (black and white/natural) prevent mismating, and the connectors are touch-proof per UL 60950 for safety protection during handling. Molex PowerWize 3.40mm Interconnects offer optimal current-carrying capacity up to 75A with multiple contact beams that ensure low contact resistance, minimal heat generation, and low voltage drop. Positive-locking headers and receptacles provide secure mating and tactile feedback, and the headers support both pin-and-paste SMT reflow and wave solder processing to fit a variety of industrial automation, telecommunications, and networking applications.
Features
- Optimal current-carrying capacity
- Multiple contact beams help ensure low contact resistance, low voltage drop, and minimal heat generation at contact interface
- Finger touch-safe headers and receptacles
- Designed per UL 60950
- Isolates crimp contacts and prevents accidental contact with energized circuit
- Color coding prevents mismating white/natural receptacles with black headers, and vice-versa
- Positive-locking headers and receptacles offer tactile and audible feedback during system integration
- Helps ensure secure mating and prevents cable assemblies from disengaging headers due to shock, vibration, or mishandling
- Mechanically keyed and color-coded connectors for geometric differences between black and white/natural connectors, ideal when multiple cable assemblies are used in the same application
