ERNI 2-Way IDC Connector for Surface Mount, 2 Row, 17.5A Current 454302 / 454302-E

ERNI 454302 / 454302-E is a high-quality 2-way IDC connector designed for surface mount PCB applications featuring two rows. It supports a current rating of 17.5 amperes and provides a compact, microminiature SMT design that saves valuable PCB space. This connector utilizes insulation displacement contact (IDC) technology to establish gas tight and permanent electrical connections without requiring wire preparation or hand soldering.

The connector features copper contacts plated with tin, housed in a liquid crystal polymer body for enhanced durability and temperature resistance. It operates reliably within a temperature range of -55°C to 150°C, making it suitable for varied industrial, medical, mobile device, smart metering, and retrofit LED lighting applications.

The straight orientation and feed-through configuration support stranded wire AWG 22/7, simplifying harness assembly. With guiding latches and detents, it ensures accurate insertion and secure holding of wires, eliminating the need for special tooling. This makes the ERNI IDC connector an ideal choice for automated assembly lines and cost-effective production.
