Samtec PSS-02-01-T-S Straight Through Hole PCB Socket, 2-Contact, 1 Row, 6.35mm Pitch, 11.4A, Solder, 500V

The Samtec PSS-02-01-T-S is a straight through hole PCB socket designed to provide reliable power transmission and strong mechanical retention in a variety of industrial and electronic boards. Featuring 2 contacts arranged in a single row with a 6.35mm pitch, this socket supports up to 11.4A per contact, making it suitable for power-to-the-board applications. It is engineered for through hole mounting, ensuring a secure and durable connection to the PCB and is oriented straight to simplify alignment and improve assembly ease.

The housing is crafted from advanced Liquid Crystal Polymer, offering excellent heat resistance and mechanical robustness under thermal cycling and soldering processes. The contact system utilizes beryllium copper alloy for optimal conductivity and fatigue resistance, with a matt tin finish to guarantee consistent connections and minimize corrosion. This socket employs a solder termination, providing a dependable bond to PCB tracks and minimizing risk of contact failure in critical power circuits.

Rated at 500V and operating efficiently across a wide ambient temperature range from -55°C up to 125°C, the PSS-02-01-T-S is suitable for both industrial control boards and demanding electronics where reliability and compliance with RoHS environmental standards are essential. The female contact configuration allows for versatile inclusion in board-to-board connector systems, enabling high-current supply in compact PCB layouts. A row pitch of 2.54mm further supports flexible alignment and compatibility with standard board designs.

This connector is designed for deployment in applications such as control panels, power distribution PCBs, embedded systems, and automation modules, where secure electrical and mechanical connections are a necessity. Its straight, through-hole profile makes it ideal for robust industrial or laboratory systems that require exact placement and strong anchoring under vibration or mechanical stress.

With its focused feature set, technical durability, and international standards compliance, the Samtec PSS-02-01-T-S PCB socket is a preferred choice for engineers and designers developing reliable, high-performance power or signal connections in manufacturing, automation, instrumentation, and commercial electronics sectors.
