Fully polarized housings:
Assures proper mating orientation; compatible Unique keying design with existing headers and plugs

Fully isolated contacts on each side of the interface:
Prevents potential arcing

Reflow options available:
Reduces labor costs, saves time and resources

V-0/Glow wire capable combination resin:
Reduces the cost of materials and labor and allows customers to meet the European standard for electrical requirements

Reduced Mating Force by 40%:
Allows for ease of work, reducing operator fatigue during assembly with its unique design compared to standard Micro-Fit 3.0

Smaller PCB footprint:
Provides design flexibility

Enhanced TPA design:
Provides stability and security for the terminals inside the receptacle; offers easy assembly for operators

Overview


Some industries require more current for high-power equipment. Their desire is to have this increased current without sacrificing the space small connectors occupy. With its unique keying design, the Micro-Fit+ connectors offer up to 13.0A with a 3.00mm pitch to deliver high current capacity for different applications using the same amount of space that smaller connectors occupy.

Industries are challenged by space constraints in their applications. The Micro-Fit+ has a smaller PCB footprint, using less space than the Micro-Fit 3.0.

Some applications have high mating cycles causing operator fatigue. Micro-Fit+ connectors reduce mating force by 40% for more reliable assembly. Also allows for ease of work reducing operator fatigue during assembly.

When assembling connectors, terminal back-outs may occur, resulting in end-product failure. The enhanced TPA design of Micro-Fit+ connectors provides stability and security for the terminals inside the receptacle. TPA retainers help prevent failure in end products by reducing terminal back-out.

Glow wire capable materials were designed to meet required EU regulations (IEC60335-1) for the home appliance market. This test mandates that connectors carrying a current of 0.20A or higher must pass the glow wire test. A connector passes the test if, during 30 seconds of applying a glowing wire, there is no ignition or any flames self-extinguish within 2 seconds.
