TS-43045-003
Microfit 43030 and 43031 terminals were crimped to 20 awg wires and inserted into receptacle
and plug housings, respectively. All circuits were populated. An axial pullout force was applied to
each terminal by pulling on the wire at a rate of 1.0 inch per minute. The maximum force to
dislodge each terminal from the housing was recorded.
Receptacles were mated to header housings to fully engage latches. Header housings were
secured to the base table and the receptacle housings were secured within a grip fixture attached
to the load cell of a motorized force testing device. The crosshead of the device was then moved
in the direction of unmating at a rate of 1.0 inch per minute until the latching geometry of either
the receptacle or the header housing yielded. The maximum force to yield the latch was
recorded.
The thumb latch on the receptacle was first deflected to its extreme until it contacted the body of
the housing (wire insertion side). It was then deflected to its opposite extreme until it contacted
the towers of the housing (mating side). This defined one cycle of the latch. Increments of 5
cycles were repeated on the latch. After each 5 cycle increment the receptacle was mated to a
plug and proper latch engagement was confirmed. Testing was terminated after 50 cycles since
no latch integrity failures were observed and this surpassed the 30 mating cycle rating for these
products by 67%.
