M80-8370242R

Overview

The Harwin M80-8370242R is a Datamate L-Tek male pin header designed for power to board applications. It features a single row with two positions and utilizes a friction latch mechanism for secure mating. The connector supports a current rating of 2.2 A and a voltage rating of 800 VAC/DC. It employs solder pin termination for PCB mounting and operates within a temperature range of -55°C to +125°C. The housing is black, constructed from thermoplastic material with a UL94 V-0 flammability rating.

Feature Summary

• Incorporates a friction latch system to ensure reliable connection retention during vibration and shock.
• Utilizes high-reliability four-finger beryllium copper contacts to maintain signal integrity in harsh environments.
• Features a compact single-row design suitable for space-constrained power distribution networks.

Applications

• Industrial control systems requiring robust power connections
• Automotive electronics operating under high vibration conditions
• Military equipment demanding high reliability in extreme temperatures

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix 'R' against official datasheets to confirm reel packaging or material specifications. Ensure compatibility with mating female sockets from the same Datamate L-Tek series. Check RoHS and REACH compliance status directly from the manufacturer's documentation before integration into regulated assemblies.

Selection Notes

Select this component when high voltage isolation (800V) and moderate current (2.2A) are required in a minimal footprint. The friction latch offers easier assembly compared to screw-lock variants. Consider the single-row configuration for simplified PCB routing where multi-row density is not necessary.

Part Context

This part belongs to the Datamate L-Tek family, which focuses on cost-effective solutions without sacrificing durability. Unlike the J-Tek series, L-Tek connectors often utilize friction latches instead of screws, streamlining assembly processes while maintaining Harwin's standard for environmental resistance and contact performance.

Replacement Considerations

No direct public substitute part numbers are confirmed for this specific variant. If unavailable, evaluate other Datamate L-Tek male headers with matching 2-position count, 2mm pitch, and solder termination. Verify that alternative parts support the required 800V rating and friction latch mechanism.
