3M 3000 Series Straight Through Hole PCB Header, 40 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

IDC connectors are suitable for use in applications in a wide range of markets. These markets include industrial, instrumentation, medical markets, consumer, communications and data.

3M are a reliable name in computing and electronic connection. Combined with RS Group's excellent customer service, 3M provides a range of specialist connectivity solutions for a variety of industries and applications.

Link wires to your PCB with this robust header from 3M. It's made of glass-filled polyester that can withstand impact and abrasion, making it suitable for harsh industrial environments. This material also serves as an insulator to protect you from electric shocks and ensure safe operation. The header is designed to be through-hole mounted to the PCB, which creates a reliably secure connection. Thanks to a current rating of 1A, this unit is energy efficient and dissipates minimal heat.

• Wide operating temperature range of -55°C to +105°C for use in challenging settings
• Copper alloy contacts for a reliable connection
• 40 contacts for multi-signal transmission
• Can withstand up to 1000V of impulse voltage, so suitable for volatile appliances

• Measurement and instrumentation devices
• Communication industry

Yes, this header is polarised to prevent any accidental mismating of connectors.
