The New FX26 Series From HIROSE
Floating Board-to-Board Connectors for High Vibration
HIROSE Electric has successfully developed a high contact reliability connector with a -40 to 140°C operating temperature that maintains the highest performance in vibration environments, including on-board powertrain. The new FX26 series maintains high contact reliability even in temperatures ranging from -40 to 140°C and under severe vibration.
While the shift to hybrid cars and EV (electric vehicle) is gaining momentum worldwide, the motors and inverters used in these eco-cars are always subject to problems of heat generation and vibration. In addition, the lifespan of a car, which was said to be 10 years and 100,000 kilometers, is increasing rapidly, so vehicles need to be able to be operated safely for a long period of time. Therefore, automotive connectors must also be tough enough to withstand the high heat and vibration conditions of powertrains for long time spans.
A unique floating structure solves the problem of contact failure caused by vibration. FX26 is a small, easy-to-assemble connector with outstanding performance in vibration environments.
Board-to-Board Floating Connector With Vibration Isolation Structure "FX26":
- Thermal shock test at -40°C to 140°C and 3,000 cycles cleared to confirm heat resistance
- Pass severe vibration conditions for equipment installed in the engine room, such as inside the inverter
- 1mm pitch, low height, space-saving, contributes to sets downsizes
The newly developed FX26 can meet the requirements of powertrain control systems for existing electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles.
