Medi | Slice® Card Edge Connector: AMS15-36 Product Highlights
Edge Card Connector System:
By integrating card edge connector technology into Medi | Slice®, limited-use applications can be designed with internal fail-safes to prevent usage outside the intended lifespan.
Pull-band Latching:
The pull-band latch connection system provides assurance that the connector is mated properly via an audible click. The mating force is also accessible for most people at just 8.5 lbs. with a corresponding unmating force of 4 lbs. The latch system protects against accidental unmating of up to 20 lbs.
Up to 36 Contacts:
These rectangular connectors offer a high-count contact system using 36 card edge pins in a small 1.8” x 1.5” package — all inside a robust plastic housing.
Touch Proof Contacts:
Medi | Slice® includes touch-proof contact pins that protect against accidental touching when unmated. This feature is crucial for maintaining safety standards in medical devices and other sensitive applications, such as fiber optics and integrated circuits.
Multiple Keying Options:
With several keying options available, Medi | Slice® ensures a failsafe mechanism to prevent undesired mating in multiple connector applications. This adaptability makes it a versatile choice for complex setups involving terminal strips and surface mount components.
Electrical Characteristics:
Medi | Slice® is rated at 1A per contact (continuous) and a working voltage of 225vAC.
Available Product Configurations:
The available product configurations include plug-cable mount only, and receptacle-cable mount or panel mount (front or rear), offering flexibility for different medical and industrial automation needs.
