IMS5-03-02

Samtec Inc.'s IMS5-03-02 represents the next evolution in Blade Type Power Connectors - Housings technology, optimized for harsh industrial environments. This connector delivers exceptional durability while maintaining precise electrical characteristics throughout its service life. Its innovative design addresses common failure modes in power distribution systems.The Receptacle interface eliminates mating orientation concerns in blind-connect applications. Self-aligning features reduce installation time by up to 40% compared to traditional designs.Engineered with Female Blade Socket contacts, this connector achieves <1m contact resistance even after 10,000 mating cycles. The dual-beam contact geometry ensures constant normal force across temperature variations.Supporting 3 contact positions, this solution accommodates both low-current control signals and high-power circuits. The modular design allows field-configurable position counts.The 0.197" (5.00mm) pitch configuration optimizes creepage distance for safety-certified designs. This spacing accommodates conformal coating without compromising insulation properties.The 1 row arrangement provides balanced current distribution across all contacts. This symmetrical layout prevents hot-spot formation during continuous operation.Free Hanging (In-Line) variants feature integrated cable clamps for strain relief. Free-hanging versions include corrugated outer jackets for enhanced flexibility.Utilizing Crimp technology, this connector maintains stable connections under mechanical stress. The cold-welded joints exhibit superior vibration resistance compared to conventional methods.Black housing material contains UV stabilizers for outdoor applications. The high-visibility coloring facilitates quick identification in complex wiring harnesses.The Panel Lock design elements make this connector ideal for automated assembly processes. Chemical-resistant materials withstand exposure to oils, solvents, and cleaning agents.With Side to Side stacking capability, the connector supports three-dimensional power distribution networks. The positive-locking mechanism prevents accidental disconnection.
