3M 3000 Series Right Angle Through Hole PCB Header, 20 Contact(s), 2.54mm Pitch, 2 Row(s), Shrouded

The 3M D3000 series PCB through hole mounting wire to board headers feature a double row of square pins in a 2.54 x 2.54 mm pitch. These D3000 series headers are fully shrouded to protect the contacts from damage and have mounting holes for a secure the connection to the PCB.

The ejection latches of these D3000 series PCB headers provide a secure connection to the mating connector and allow easy removal when needed. The design of the ejection latches features roll-pins for increased retention in high vibration applications and to prevent breakage during ejection. Ejection latches are either supplied with the header or require purchasing separately. These D3000 series shrouded PCB headers incorporate a cut-out in the housing to accommodate mating connectors with centre bump polarisation. Extra polarisation slots are also provided to enable quick connection and to minimise misalignment. Military polarisation can also be achieved by using a polarisation key (3M part number N3518).

Versions of these headers are available with housings made from high temperature PCT thermoplastic making them suitable for lead-free solder processing up to 260°C (JEDEC J-STD-020C). Available as right angle or vertical mounting and with various contact numbers these D3000 series headers offer a versatile solution for your wire to board requirements.

• 4 wall shrouding for contact protection
• Centre bump polarisation
• Military polarisation possible using N3518 polarising key

• Part numbers prefixed with 'N' have high temperature PCT housings

• Ejector latches are available separately, see stock number 827-3562 typically

Got extra devices to join to your board-mounted system? This 3M PCB header is fitted with 20 contacts, so it's an easy way to pin down multiple circuits at once. Its reliable gold over nickel-plated copper alloy contacts give effective conductivity and keep signals moving. Built-in ejector latches lock connectors to the component and make it easy to pull the plug on attached appliances when it's time for disconnection.

• PCT-GF shroud to guard sensitive contacts against impacts
• Simple through-hole mounting fixes to boards in no time
• Contacts spread across two rows to fit into busy setups

• Automotive industry
• Building management
• Measuring and instrumentation devices

The product comes with centre-bump polarisation, so it only latches to a connector when the contacts are properly aligned.
