Source Connector: Current Capacity 2A per contact

Component Specifications

Definition

A precision electromechanical component designed to establish secure physical and electrical connections between sensors, transducers, or data sources and the attribute resolver's input interface. It ensures reliable transmission of analog/digital signals while maintaining signal integrity and preventing data corruption in industrial environments.

Working Principle

Operates by providing a standardized interface that converts various sensor output signals (voltage, current, frequency, digital) into a uniform format compatible with the attribute resolver's processing unit. Incorporates signal conditioning, noise filtering, and impedance matching to maintain data accuracy across varying industrial conditions.

Materials

Housing: Engineering-grade thermoplastic (PBT, PPS) or aluminum alloy; Contacts: Gold-plated copper alloy or beryllium copper; Insulation: High-temperature resistant polymers; Sealing: Silicone or fluorosilicone rubber

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between source connectors and standard industrial connectors?

Source connectors include integrated signal conditioning, filtering, and format conversion specifically designed for attribute resolver compatibility, whereas standard connectors only provide physical connection without signal processing.

How do I select the right source connector for my application?

Consider signal type (analog/digital), environmental conditions (IP rating, temperature), required mating cycles, connector coding, and compatibility with your existing sensor interfaces and attribute resolver specifications.

Can source connectors be used in hazardous environments?

Yes, when selected with appropriate certifications (ATEX, IECEx) and materials suitable for specific hazardous area classifications.
