10132450-1821GLF

Overview

The Amphenol ICC (FCI) 10132450-1821GLF is a Minitek Pwr 3.0 HCC header connector designed for power-to-board applications. It features an 18-position, dual-row configuration with a 3 mm pitch and vertical through-hole solder termination. Rated for 12 A current and 600 VAC voltage, the unit utilizes tin-plated copper contacts housed in black polyamide (PA). The connector supports a wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +105°C and includes board guide features with locking ramp fastening.

Feature Summary

• Dual-row vertical through-hole design for high-density power distribution
• Glow wire compliant construction ensuring fire safety standards
• Integrated board guide and locking ramp mechanism for secure assembly

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust power connections
• Telecommunications infrastructure equipment
• High-reliability server and storage backplanes

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific position count against project requirements, as this model is an 18-position variant within the Minitek Pwr 3.0 series. Confirm that the vertical through-hole mounting style aligns with the target PCB layout. Ensure compatibility with glow wire testing protocols if the application demands strict fire safety compliance. Cross-reference the supplier's documentation to confirm the presence of board guide features.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a high-current, dual-row power header is required for vertical board mounting. The 3 mm pitch allows for substantial conductor spacing compared to smaller pitches. Consider the polyamide housing material for its thermal stability up to 105°C. Verify that the tin plating meets the environmental conditions of the deployment site.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Minitek Pwr 3.0 HCC family, which provides reliable power interconnect solutions. The series is characterized by its ability to handle significant currents while maintaining compact form factors. The HCC designation indicates specific contact and housing engineering optimized for high-contact count applications in demanding environments.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include other 18-position variants within the same Minitek Pwr 3.0 series, such as the 10132450-1221GLF, provided the position count matches the design. Ensure any replacement maintains the dual-row, vertical through-hole specification and identical 3 mm pitch dimensions.
