305-024-520-207

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 305-024-520-207 is a standard card edge connector from the 305 Series, designed for panel mount applications with a vertical orientation. It features 24 positions arranged in a dual-row configuration with a pitch of 3.96 mm (0.156 inches). The connector accepts PCBs with a thickness of 1.57 mm and utilizes gold-plated copper alloy contacts to ensure reliable signal transmission. It supports a continuous current rating of 5 A and withstands 1800 VACrms dielectric voltage. The housing is constructed from thermoplastic material, providing durability and insulation resistance of 5 GOhms.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Accepts between-contact and in-contact polarizing keys for secure board alignment
• Dual-edge female contact design for robust connection stability
• Gold-plated contacts on copper alloy substrate for corrosion resistance

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high-voltage isolation
• Panel-mounted electronic modules needing polarized insertion
• High-reliability communication equipment interfaces

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific application environment requires the 1800 VACrms dielectric strength and 5 A current rating provided by this component. Confirm that the PCB thickness matches the 1.57 mm specification to ensure proper mechanical engagement. Ensure that the polarizing key requirements align with the system's mechanical constraints before finalizing the procurement order.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this model when a dual-row card edge connector with a 3.96 mm pitch is required for panel mounting. The 305 Series is suitable for applications demanding high dielectric strength and polarized insertion capabilities. Consider the gold plating and thermoplastic housing if environmental durability and long-term conductivity are critical factors for the design.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 305 Series, which specializes in standard card edge connectors. The series is characterized by its ability to accept polarizing keys and its robust construction for industrial use. Similar models in the series vary primarily by position count while maintaining consistent electrical and mechanical specifications such as pitch and current ratings.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes within the same series include other position variants like the 305-024-520-202 or 305-024-520-268, provided the housing color or specific ordering suffix does not alter the functional interface. Verify compatibility with existing polarizing key mechanisms.
