895-074-556-512

Edgeboard Connectors Overview

The EDAC Inc. 895-074-556-512 is a dual-edge female card edge connector from the 895 series, designed for through-hole mounting. It features 74 positions with a 0.100-inch (2.54mm) pitch across two rows of 37 contacts each. The connector utilizes gold-plated cantilever spring contacts and a black polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) insulator rated UL 94V-0. It accommodates board thicknesses between 0.054 and 0.070 inches and operates within a temperature range of -40°C to +125°C.

Edgeboard Connectors Feature Summary

• Gold-plated cantilever spring contacts ensure reliable electrical connection for non-specified dual-edge cards.
• Polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) insulator provides high thermal stability and UL 94V-0 flammability rating.
• Through-hole right-angle installation design facilitates secure panel or chassis mounting.

Edgeboard Connectors Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust interconnects
• Medical equipment needing reliable signal transmission
• Communication infrastructure hardware

Edgeboard Connectors Procurement Notes

Verify the specific ordering suffix against the manufacturer's official 895 Series Ordering Guide to confirm contact plating thickness and insulation material properties. Ensure compatibility with target PCB thickness specifications before procurement. Cross-reference the full part number with authorized distributors to validate current availability and lead times.

Edgeboard Connectors Selection Notes

Select this component when a dual-edge female connector with a 0.100-inch pitch is required for through-hole applications. Confirm that the target circuit board thickness falls within the specified 0.054 to 0.070-inch range. Verify that the operating environment temperature does not exceed the +125°C maximum limit defined by the PPS insulator material.

Edgeboard Connectors Part Context

This component belongs to the EDAC 895 series of standard card edge connectors. The series is characterized by the use of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) as the primary insulating material, offering superior heat resistance compared to other series like the 845. The 895 series is widely utilized in industrial and medical sectors where durability and thermal performance are critical.

Edgeboard Connectors Replacement Considerations

Consult the EDAC 895 Series Ordering Guide for direct substitutes with identical pin counts and pitch but different mounting styles or plating options. No alternative part numbers are confirmed in the provided documentation.
