Package and Handling Information
The compact Versatile Link package is made of a flame
retardant VALOX
®
UL 94 V-0 material (UL file # E121562)
and uses the same pad layout as a standard, eight pin
dual-in-line package. Vertical and horizontal mountable
parts are available. These low profile Versatile Link
packages are stackable and are enclosed to provide a
dust resistant seal. Snap action simplex, simplex
latching, duplex, and duplex latching connectors are
offered with simplex or duplex cables.
Package Orientation
Performance and pinouts for the vertical and horizontal
packages are identical. To provide additional attachment
support for the vertical Versatile Link housing, the
designer has the option of using a self-tapping screw
through a printed circuit board into a mounting hole at
the bottom of the package. For most applications this is
not necessary.
Package Housing Color
Versatile Link components and simplex connectors are
color coded to eliminate confusion when making
connections. Receivers are blue and transmitters are
gray, except for the HFBR-15X3 transmitter, which is
black.
