M80-5000000M3-12-331-00-000

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The M80-5000000M3-12-331-00-000 is a male power-to-the-board connector from the Harwin Datamate series. It features a 12-position configuration with a 4mm pitch and straight orientation. Designed for through-hole termination, it utilizes crimp contacts made of brass. The unit supports a rated voltage of 120 V AC/DC and carries a current rating of 20A.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary

• High-reliability four-finger beryllium copper contact structure ensures connection integrity under vibration and shock.
• Datamate Mix-Tek design allows for mixed signal and power configurations within the same housing system.
• Robust mechanical locking mechanism provides secure mating in harsh industrial environments.

Headers, Male Pins Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring high reliability
• Power distribution modules
• Harsh environment electronic assemblies

Headers, Male Pins Procurement Notes

Verify that the specific part number matches the required 12-position count and 4mm pitch specifications. Confirm that the male contact type aligns with the mating female counterpart. Ensure the through-hole termination method is compatible with the target PCB manufacturing process. Cross-reference the 20A current rating against the application's thermal requirements to prevent overheating during operation.

Headers, Male Pins Selection Notes

Select this component when a robust, high-current interconnect is needed for panel or board mounting. The 4mm pitch distinguishes it from standard 2mm Datamate connectors, offering higher current capacity. Consider the male pin configuration for cable-to-board applications where the connector mounts to the board and mates with a cable assembly. Evaluate the need for jackscrew retention if front-panel mounting is required.

Headers, Male Pins Part Context

This connector belongs to the Datamate Mix-Tek family, known for its durability and resistance to environmental stressors. The M80-50 series specifically addresses power-to-the-board needs with larger spacing for higher currents. It complements other Harwin interconnect solutions by providing a standardized, reliable interface for critical power connections in demanding sectors.

Headers, Male Pins Replacement Considerations

No public confirmed substitute part numbers are available in the provided documentation. Direct replacement requires matching the 12-position count, 4mm pitch, male contact type, and through-hole termination style exactly to ensure mechanical and electrical compatibility.
