10131319-12121G0LF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) part number 10131319-12121G0LF is a Minitek Pwr 4.2 series power-to-board header designed for high-current applications. It features a 12-position, two-row configuration with a 4.2 mm pitch. The connector utilizes male pin contacts made of copper alloy with gold plating to ensure reliable conductivity and corrosion resistance. Rated for 12.5 A current and 600 VAC voltage, it supports through-hole vertical mounting. The housing is constructed from black polyamide material, offering an operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C and an insulation resistance of 1 GOhms.

Feature Summary

• High-current capability rated at 12.5 A per contact
• Gold-plated copper alloy contacts for enhanced durability
• Vertical through-hole mounting for PCB integration
• Polyamide housing with UL94 V-0 flammability rating

Applications

• Industrial power distribution systems
• Factory automation equipment
• Heavy machinery control units

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix and environmental compliance status directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributors before procurement. Confirm that the gold plating thickness meets the requirements for the intended mating cycles and operational environment. Ensure that the through-hole footprint on the target PCB aligns precisely with the 4.2 mm pitch and row spacing defined in the official datasheet to guarantee proper mechanical fit and electrical performance.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, high-current interconnect solution is required for board-to-power connections. The 4.2 mm pitch allows for wider trace spacing compared to standard signal headers, reducing short-circuit risks. The vertical orientation simplifies assembly in dense enclosures where space above the board is available. Consider the 12.5 A rating against the total system load to ensure adequate thermal management and safety margins during continuous operation.

Part Context

This connector belongs to the Minitek Pwr 4.2 family, which specializes in high-current power delivery for industrial and commercial electronics. The series provides various position counts and termination styles to accommodate different design constraints. As a power-to-board solution, it bridges the gap between main power sources and circuit boards, ensuring stable energy transfer in demanding environments where reliability and low contact resistance are critical.

Replacement Considerations

Direct replacements must match the 4.2 mm pitch, 12-position count, and vertical through-hole form factor. Verify that substitute components offer equivalent current ratings and gold-plated contacts. Cross-reference the mechanical dimensions and housing material properties to ensure compatibility with existing PCB layouts and enclosure designs without requiring redesign.
