Further technical specifications are a maximum initial contact resistance of 100mΩ at the connector contacts, an insulation resistance of up to 1,000MΩ and a voltage proof of 500VAC per minute. The operating temperature ranges between –25°C and +85°C. The SCHH series complies with the RoHS (Restriction on Hazardous Substances) directive and is available in minimum packaging units of 780 pieces.
These features make use of technologies ALPS has cultivated during several years for the thin-walled mold processing, simulation engineering techniques etc. Simulation engineering in particular provided a fluidity analysis of the compound resin, which enabled ALPS to define a resin that provides the optimum part structure and twist-resistance and to determine the optimum pressure for reliable contact with the terminals. Accelerated development is being promoted to improve the efficiency of the design.
