2 Receptacle Housings for M-Style Infinite Switches
TE Connectivity (TE) introduces three and four position housings for use with M-style infinite switches – rotary switches typically used to control resistive heating elements in electric cooking ranges, space heaters, hot plates and similar applications. These housings are for applications where: OEMs want to potentially speed an assembly step by making as many as four connections simultaneously while insulating the terminals and improving ergonomics for their workers Positive Lock Mark II receptacles or FASTON receptacles are used to mate with the switch. OEMs want to use one or two wires per receptacle. TE Connectivity (TE) introduces three and four position housings for use with M-style infinite switches.

What’s new? TE is introducing housings for use with Positive Lock Mark II receptacles or FASTON receptacles and M-style infinite switches , , Housings Three and four position, nylon 6/6 housings for use with straight Positive Lock Mark II receptacles or straight FASTON receptacles Electrically insulate terminals Allow as many as four connections to be made at once, potentially speeding this step of assembly May help prevent mis-mating in the application Improve ergonomics for assembly workers Are UL recognized (file E28476) for the U.S. and Canada when used with designated receptacles We are pleased to introduce these housings for with Positive Lock Mark II receptacles or FASTON receptacles and M-style infinite switches. Included are , and housings.

4 Receptacle Housings for M-Style Infinite Switches
What receptacles do these housings accept? 250 series, straight, Positive Lock Mark II receptacle terminals on wire can be inserted into the housings These low insertion force receptacles incorporate a feature that latches onto the tab with a tactile and audible click for high retention force and secure connections These receptacles strongly resist disconnection when pulling force is exerted on the wire; however, pulling on the housing releases the receptacle latches and allows disconnection 250 series, straight, FASTON receptacle terminals on wire may also be inserted into the housings Some customers may prefer to use the FASTON receptacles instead of the Positive Lock receptacles. You may be wondering what receptacles these housings accept. 250 series straight Positive Lock Mark II receptacle terminals on wire can be inserted into the housings. These low insertion force receptacles incorporate a feature that latches onto the tab with a tactile and audible click for high retention force and secure connections. These receptacles strongly resist disconnection when pulling force is exerted on the wire; however, pulling on the housing releases the receptacle latches and allows disconnection. 250 series straight FASTON receptacle terminals on wire may also be inserted into the housings. Some customers may prefer to use these receptacles. TE Connectivity Confidential & Proprietary. Do not reproduce or distribute.

5 Receptacle Housings for M-Style Infinite Switches are Designed to Perform
Features Benefits Three and four position housings Allows workers to make multiple connections at one time, potentially expediting the end product assembly process. Accept Positive Lock Mark II or FASTON receptacles Allows the OEM the flexibility to choose the type of receptacle terminals used in the application Large gripping, pushing surfaces for fingers Ergonomically-friendly housings may help to increase line workers’ comfort and productivity. Receptacle cavities sized to accept up to two wires Permits the OEM to crimp two wires into one receptacle and use it within the housing. These Positive Lock receptacle housings offer numerous features and benefits. As three and four position housings, they allow workers to make multiple connections at one time, potentially expediting the end product assembly process. They accommodate Positive Lock Mark II or FASTON receptacles. This allows the OEM to choose between two distinct types of receptacles in their applications. Large gripping and pushing surfaces make these housings ergonomically friendly. This may help to increase line workers’ comfort and productivity. The receptacle cavities in the housings are sized to accept up to two wires, permitting the OEM to crimp two wires together into one receptacle and use it within the housing. The nylon 6/6 material provides excellent electrical insulation and mechanical protection of connections. The housings are agency approved. Being UL recognized for the U.S. and Canada when used with specified receptacles, OEMs may find that this aids with the compliance of their end products. Provides excellent electrical insulation and mechanical protection of connections. Nylon 6/6 material UL recognized when used with specified receptacle terminals to aid with compliance of OEM’s end product. Agency approvals TE Connectivity Confidential & Proprietary.

Basic Product Description Positions: 3 or 4 Material: Nylon 6/6 Temperature Range: -40 to 130°C Agency approvals: UL Recognized when used with designated receptacle terminals UL Flammability Rating: 94 V-0 Part numbers/positions/colors: position Black position Natural position Natural Typically, a black three position housing is used along with one of the natural housings. The natural housing required varies based on the particular M-style infinite switch used in the application. Here is a quick look at the basic characteristics of these housings. They are three and four position housings of nylon 6/6 material. They are designed for a temperature range of -40 to 130°C. They are UL recognized when used with the designated receptacle terminals. They have a UL 94 V-0 flammability rating. Typically, the black three position housing would be used along with one of the natural housings. The natural housing used will vary based upon the particular infinite switch and the application. Some will require the three position natural housing , while others will require the four position natural housing Review the customer drawings for details about these three housings.

Design-In Questions Are you using M-style infinite switches to control resistive heating elements in your design? Would you like to apply receptacles to multiple terminals of those switches simultaneously to potentially speed up your assembly process and help reduce mis-mating errors? Are you looking for a more ergonomic way to apply the receptacles to the tabs? Would you like the flexibility to use either Positive Lock Mark II receptacles or FASTON receptacles when making these connections? Do you need to accommodate up to two wires per receptacle in your application? If the answers are “yes,” these new multi-position infinite switch housings with either Positive Lock Mark II receptacles or FASTON receptacles could represent a great solution for the application. Here are some questions that may help to determine whether these new receptacles and Positive Lock receptacles should be considered for design-in.
