Press Release Image

JST - PH, EH, XH and VH PCB connectors. Compact and very reliable.

Easby now stock a wide range of JST PCB connectors, notably JST’s hugely popular and very versatile PH, EH, XH and VH interconnect systems. These 2.0, 2.5 and 3.96mm pitch wire to board connectors are available in 2 to 20 circuit variations and offer designers a wide range of interconnect solutions when developing electrical and electronic applications. Manufactured using high quality materials via JST’s exacting production systems, these connectors are also considered to be very robust and extremely reliable.

Special features include:
PH Connector (2.0mm Pitch)
· Current rating: 2A AC, DC (AWG#24) – Voltage rating: 100V AC, DC
· Reliable contact: The contact is designed to ensure positive contact and low resistance at all times, even in high vibration environments.
· Fully shrouded header: The header is fully shrouded which helps ensure correct connector mating.
· Anti floating mechanism: The solder side of the header has a retention mechanism that prevents the header from floating during soldering.
· Fully RoHS compliant

EH Connector (2.5mm Pitch)
· Current rating: 3A AC, DC (AWG#22) – Voltage rating: 250V AC, DC
· Compact and slim: At 3.80mm wide, this 2.5mm pitch connector is one of the slimmest board mounted crimp connectors on the market.
· Polarising guides: The header and housing are ribbed to prevent incorrect connector mating.
· Fully RoHS compliant

XH Connector (2.5mm Pitch)
· Current rating: 3A AC, DC (AWG#22) – Voltage rating: 250V AC, DC
· Reliable contact: The folded beam contact provides high contact pressure and excellent performance even in high stress environments.
· Header with boss: The header is designed with a boss on the bottom of the housing to prevent incorrect placement on the PCB.
· Fully RoHS compliant

VH Connector (3.96mm Pitch)
· Current rating: 10A AC, DC (AWG#16) – Voltage rating: 250V AC, DC
· Compact connector: With a total mountable height of 16.5mm this product is considerably small for a 10A rated connector.
· Secure locking: The connector incorporates a lock mechanism that prevents the connector coming loose even in high vibration environments.
· Fully RoHS compliant
