picoMAX® is the compact pluggable connection system with a highly innovative design. It makes dual use of the contact force from a single Cr-Ni stainless steel spring to clamp the conductor and connect the header pin. This makes picoMAX® even more compact than other pluggable connection system systems and sets new standards for wire-to-board, board-to-wire, wire-to-wire and panel feedthrough connections. Your Benefits: Compact design: Reduces space by up to 30% Radically simplified contact system The special design, innovative spring pressure connection technology and new insulation material guarantee absolute contact reliability – even at higher surrounding ambient temperatures Exceptionally high vibration resistance of up to 20g for wire-to-board connections, thanks to integrated locking latches and a female connector that’s almost fully enshrouded in the male header. Efficient testing via test slot parallel to connector entry Your Signals Perfectly Plugged picoMAX® 3.5: Pluggable PCB connector with 3.5 mm (1.377 inch) pin spacing for conductor cross sections up to 1.5 mm2 (14 AWG) and rated currents up to 10 A Advantages: Universal connection for all conductor types Push-in CAGE CLAMP® termination of both solid conductors and fine-stranded conductors with ferrules Possibility of wiring while mated or unmated Integrated locking latches prevent accidental disconnection Optimal Power Supply picoMAX® 5.0 and 7.5: Pluggable PCB connectors with 5.0 and 7.5 mm (0.197 and 2.953 inch) pin spacing for conductor cross sections up to 2.5 mm2 (12 AWG) and rated currents up to 16 A Advantages: Universal connection for all conductor types
