har-flex® Power

HARTING introduces an extension of the established har-flex product range with power contacts capable of up to 18 A per pin. Connectors are available as either power versions or hybrid (combined power and signal) versions. Power contacts are on a 2.54 mm pitch, whereas standard har-flex is 1.27 mm. The high current contacts can be delivered as SMT or through-hole versions, whereas standard har-flex is only SMT. There is a variety of pin counts with male and female connectors available in both straight and right-angle orientation.

In addition to the standard har-flex in 1.27 mm pitch, the har-flex product family also offers connectors with 2.54 mm pitch. har-flex Power was specifically designed for the transmission of high currents between 12 A and 26 A, depending on the pole count and ambient temperature. The flexible pole numbers from 2 to 12 are made possible by a modular manufacturing concept. Moreover, users can choose between SMT and THR power contact versions. har-flex Power connectors are available in straight and angled design and can be used in parallel (mezzanine) board, extender card, and motherboard-to-daughtercard configurations.

Thanks to the same form factor, har-flex Power and Signal can be used together on one PCB. This allows a strict separation of signal and power while maintaining a coherent connector system.
