10127819-08312PLF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10127819-08312PLF is a Minitek Pwr 4.2 series power-to-board connector header. It features an 8-position, dual-row configuration with a 4.2 mm pitch. The component utilizes brass contacts with tin plating and is designed for through-hole, right-angle mounting. Rated for 9 A current and 600 VAC voltage, it operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +105°C. The housing is constructed from natural Liquid Crystal Polymer (LCP) with UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Feature Summary

• Dual-row blade-style power connector design for high-current applications
• Right-angle through-hole termination for board-edge integration
• Tin-plated brass contacts ensuring reliable conductivity
• High-temperature LCP insulation material for thermal stability

Applications

• Power distribution in industrial control systems
• Server and storage backplane connections
• Telecommunications equipment power interfaces
• Heavy-duty electronic device power supply units

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix PLF indicates tin plating rather than gold, as this affects solderability and cost. Confirm the dual-row right-angle orientation matches the PCB footprint requirements. Check RoHS compliance status against project specifications, as older FCI parts may vary. Ensure the 4.2 mm pitch aligns with mating receptacle or cable assemblies. Validate that the 9 A rating per contact meets the circuit load demands without derating issues.

Selection Notes

Select this model when high current capacity and compact board-edge mounting are required. The 4.2 mm pitch allows for larger contact areas compared to signal connectors. Consider the right-angle form factor for space-constrained vertical installations. Compare against the 10127819-0612GLF if fewer positions are needed, noting the plating difference between tin and gold options.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Minitek Pwr 4.2 family, a specialized line of power connectors by Amphenol ICC (formerly FCI). The series is engineered for robust power delivery in dense electronic environments. The 10127819 base number denotes the header style, while the suffix defines position count and plating. This specific variant represents a mid-range position count within the dual-row right-angle header offerings.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 8-position, 4.2 mm pitch headers from the same Minitek Pwr 4.2 series with matching tin plating. Verify mechanical dimensions and locking features before swapping. Generic equivalents must match the 600 VAC rating and through-hole profile. Consult manufacturer cross-reference lists for updated part numbers if this specific SKU is discontinued.
