Molex Sentrality High-Current Interconnect System
Molex Sentrality High-Current Interconnect System features high-voltage, high-current pin and socket connectors that offer ±1.0mm radial self-alignment to mitigate tolerance stack-up issues when mating. The family consists of straight and right-angle connectors that can be mixed and matched to enable parallel, right-angle, co-planar, offset-planar, and reverse planar mating configurations. Four sizes of Molex Sentrality connectors are available: 3.4mm (75A), 6mm (120A), 8mm (200A), 11mm (350A), 16mm, 26mm, and 36mm to address a wide range of requirements. Surface mount, screw mount, threaded, and press fit pins and sockets are available to allow board-to-board, board-to-busbar, and busbar-to-busbar attach options.
Features
- 4 sizes available
- Socket assemblies provide ±1.0mm radial self-alignment to mitigate tolerance stack-up issues during mating
