Hirose Male Connector Housing 2 mm Pitch 3 Way 1 Row Straight DF51

Hirose DF51-3EP-2C male connector housing is engineered for high-quality wire-to-board connections in demanding electronic and industrial environments. This connector housing features a 2 mm pitch, enabling compact circuit integration, and supports up to 3 contacts laid out in a single row, making it suitable for applications requiring reliable signal transmission in minimal space. The straight orientation is particularly advantageous for flexible PCB layouts and cable routing.

The housing is constructed from polybutylene terephthalate, providing robust electrical insulation, mechanical strength, and resistance to environmental stresses commonly encountered in automation and manufacturing settings. Its positive lock system creates a secure fit with audible tactile feedback, effectively preventing incomplete mating and accidental disconnects in operational environments.

To enhance usability and prevent wiring errors, the design incorporates both mechanical and visual polarization features, ensuring that connectors cannot be mismated or reversed, even where similar connectors are present. Additionally, this model is compatible with common crimping tools shared with the DF11 Series, allowing broad cable compatibility from 22 to 30 AWG.

A short-depth straight configuration and secure side-locking design accommodate compact and thin equipment, while potting capability up to 3 mm offers added protection for sensitive electronics against moisture and vibration. Gold and tin plating options are available to match specific performance requirements, supporting various industrial use scenarios.

Typical applications for the Hirose DF51-3EP-2C connector housing include office automation equipment, industrial machinery, robotic systems, amusement devices, and medical electronics, where secure and efficient connections are essential. Its versatility and reliable performance make it a preferred solution for engineers designing or maintaining electronic assemblies.
