Wurth Elektronik Micro MATE-N-LOK Series Straight Through Hole PCB Header, 8 Contacts, 3 mm Pitch, 2 Row, Shrouded 3-794630-8

TE Connectivity 3-794630-8 Micro MATE-N-LOK Series is a high-quality straight through hole PCB header connector featuring 8 contacts arranged in 2 rows with a 3 mm pitch. The shrouded design provides added protection and reliability in harsh industrial environments. The connector housing is made from durable nylon material, while the contacts are brass with tin plating to ensure excellent conductivity and longevity.

This Micro MATE-N-LOK connector system is engineered to withstand a wide range of operating temperatures from -65°C to 105°C, making it suitable for applications in industrial automation, factory equipment, household appliances, lighting control systems, and security systems. With a current rating of 5A and voltage rating of 250V, it supports moderate power transmission effectively.

The design includes polarization features to prevent incorrect mating and positive lock tabs that secure the connection to mating cable connectors, ensuring stable and safe electrical contacts. The through-hole mount type with solder termination ensures strong mechanical and electrical bonds to printed circuit boards. The tail pin length is 3.18 mm providing adequate pin engagement.

TE Connectivity's Micro MATE-N-LOK series connectors are compatible with IR reflow soldering processes and are available in vertical and right angle configurations, although this specific model is straight orientation. These connectors have board locks or solder tail retention features for reliable PCB attachment.

Applications for this 3 mm pitch Micro MATE-N-LOK connector include industrial machinery, data storage equipment, lighting industries especially LED lighting due to the low profile design options, and household electronics.

The connector system ensures high reliability and performance in wire-to-board applications. It has a rated current of 5A suitable for moderate power requirements. Constructed with a nylon housing and brass contacts plated with tin for durability.

Features polarization to prevent mis-mating and positive lock tabs for secure mating. Designed for through-hole PCB mounting with a solder termination type. Supports operating temperature range from -65°C to 105°C for varied environments.

Has a contact tail pin length of 3.18 mm allowing secure PCB connections. The connector operates at a maximum voltage rating of 250V.
