DF63 Series/15A 3.96mm pitch Wire-to-Board Connectors for Internal Power Supply (UL, C-UL and TÜV Listed)

Features
1. Rated for up to 15A

Aug.1.2024 Copyright 2024 HIROSE ELECTRIC CO., LTD. All Rights Reserved.

DF63 has the capacity to handle a Max. of 15A
when using 16 AWG wire.
( Please refer to the chart for the rated current inother pin counts. )* Supports 7. 92mm pitch
Also supports 7. 92mm pitch with 2 or 3 pos.
without pins.
The product will be available upon request.
Please contact Hirose representative.

2. Secure mating and clear
tactile click

［A－A］

A→

The locking mechanism delivers a clear andtactile click, which prevents incomplete mating
and reduces burden on workers for improved
work efficiency.

A→

Crimp contact
Lock portions of theplug and the header
start to engage.

No contact yet

Header contact

Lock structure

3. Prevents incomplete insertionof the crimp contact

Crimp contact(insuﬃciently inserted)

A structure to prevent incomplete insertion of thecrimp contacts is provided.

Lock does
not work.

Lance and header
protection mechanism
meet.

Prevention of insufficient insertion of the crimp contact2

DF63 Series/15A 3.96mm pitch Wire-to-Board Connectors for Internal Power Supply (UL, C-UL and TÜV Listed)

4. Reverse mounting prevention
to PCB

Unique locking
mechanism iscontained inside
the header
Socket and header
design avoids
short-circuit between
adjacent contacts.

Aug.1.2024 Copyright 2024 HIROSE ELECTRIC CO., LTD. All Rights Reserved.

The pin header is equipped with a guide post to
prevent reverse insertion on the PCB.

5. Short- circuit prevention
The wall structure between the contacts helps toisolate the contacts and prevents short circuits
between contacts.

6. Molded lance design
The lance is actually part of the housing insteadof being a part of the terminal. This prevents
tangled wires during assembly.

7. Suitable for potting
Capable of being potted, up to 5mm.

8. Solder crack prevention
Glass- reinforced resin is used on the pin header
to prevent solder cracks due to thermal
contraction.

3

Guide keys
prevent incorrect
insertion
Guide pins
temporarily holdand assure proper
orientation of theconnector.

Contact Extraction
Contact extraction tool : Flat- bladed screwdriver. 1. 2mm blade width or DF- C- PO( B)
Intended crimp Contacts : DF63A- 1618SC( F) ( A) , DF63A- 2022SC( F) ( A) , DF63- 1618PC( F) ( A) , DF63- 2022PC( F) ( A)
● Work Method
1. Refer to the drawing No. 1. Insert correct size contact extraction tool in the insulator against the molded- in lance.
Deflect the lance as shown.
2. Assure that the lance is deflected to release the contact and pull- out wire with the terminated contact.

Precautions for use
1. The connector could be damaged if it is pulled out forcibly. When it is hard to pull out, push it in slightly first and thendepress the lock and un- mate.
2. When thick, short sections of wire are used, the connector could be deformed due to the force of the wires' position.
Route cables in such a way that they do twist when being installed.
3. Make sure to turn off the power when mating or un- mating the connector.
4. Please do not touch any area around the contact part with your hand when the power is on; it could be very
dangerous.
5. Please refer to the materials listed below when handling this product.
■ Crimping quality control statement of standards ( ETAD- H0730- 00, ETAD- H0810- 00)■ Harness procedure manual ( ETAD- H0737- 00)■ Insertion/ extraction manual ( ETAD- H0892- 00)■ Board- to- Wire Connector Guidelines ( ETAD- H1023- 00)
6. The color of the plastic molding may differ slightly depending on product lot and future storage conditions but this does
not affect the product performance.
7. Black spots may appear on the mold resin but this does not affect the product quality.

Rated values･ Please avoid using the connectors above the ratings. Also, do not insert or pull out energized or " live" wires.
・”Live wire insertion”refers to insertion while electricity is running.

Operating environment･ Please contact us if you are designing this connector into environmental conditions where high and low temperatures arerepeated.

While Taking into Consideration
