MDF51SU-2S-13C

Headers, Male Pins Overview

The MDF51SU-2S-13C is a discontinued power-to-the-board connector socket manufactured by Hirose Electric. It features a single row with two positions and a 13 mm pitch, designed for high-voltage applications up to 3 kV. The component has a current rating of 1 A and operates within a temperature range of -35 C to +85 C. It utilizes crimp termination for 24 AWG wires and includes phosphor bronze contacts with tin plating. The housing is made of gray polyamide (PA), providing an insulation resistance of 1 GOhms. This vertical receptacle is intended for cable mounting or free-hanging installation.

Headers, Male Pins Feature Summary
