Description
- Erni has released its high-current PCB Power Elements at Jacarem. The key elements of these terminals include current capability of up to 10 A per individual PCB pin and rugged construction to sustain even the most extreme conditions. To achieve these outstanding mechanical specs, the elements are attached to the PCB with Press-Fit-Technology, which has clear advantages over soldering or other methods to assemble products on the PCB.
Technical Specification
Numerous processing advantages:
- no tearing of the circuit paths caused by the “jet effect” during pressfit
- minimal swarf formation during pressfit
- less danger of delamination and therefore undesired shorts due to moisture trapped in the pcb
- greater reliability during temperature change and vibration
- improved process safety of the press in/out process
- greater hole tolerance with lower cost for the pcb
- improved pressfit force adjustment application
- less pressfit force for high number of poles,less stress on the pcb
- general stress minimisation of pcb
- Sizes with Flexible Pressfit Zone: M5, M6, M8, M10
- Sizes with massive Pressfit Zone: M3, M4, M5, M6, M8 and M10
