CondensoX vapor phase soldering (condensation) reflow soldering oven features a hermetically-locked vacuum chamber. Combines vacuum profiling and thermal profiling in one machine. By enabling the operator to solder variable-sized components with small delta Ts even in the pre-heating zone, Accommodates heights up to 100mm. Lowers boiling point of media to accommodate lead and lead-free profiles. Applied vacuum directly at the point where required temperature is reached. Manual, automatic, and high-speed loading configurations available. Features two carriers that work synchronously to cut cycle time up to 50%.

DH series small interface connector is for high-speed data transmission. Has 1mm contact mating pitch and a 0.5mm mounting pitch. Can handle up to 2.5 Gb/s speeds. Ideal for enterprise networking, industrial, telecom and datacom applications. Is a shielded, impedance-controlled connector that has a 50% reduction in the mating face area due to smaller pitch sizes. Plug has a D-shaped interface design; resists wrenching forces, while the receptacle's through-hole style metal fittings increase retention to the printed circuit board. Is available in a screw lock version with either screwdriver- or hand-tightened screws, and a one-touch lock version with metal or plastic buttons. Design offers unique contact arrangement for IDC termination and excellent shielding for EMI prevention. Measures 43mm x 39mm x 14.3mm; is available in 17, 27, 37 and 51 contact positions.

DF59 2mm pitch connector provides wire-to-board, board-to-board joint and short-circuit sockets in a single connector design. Is ideal for LEDs and applications that require a small connector. Has a swing lock that uses positive and friction locks, giving wire-to-board type connections cable pull force resistance. Cable end is mated at a slight angle; other end of the plug is pushed down to complete mating with an audible click. Provides stress-free contact for 0.5mm floating function in XYZ directions. Has a height of 2.5mm and overall size of 8 x 9mm. Has a 2mm pitch and is available in 2, 3 and 4 positions. Has a high current capacity of 3A (with AWG 22 cable) and a high contact lance strength for wire-to-board type connections. Is RoHS-compliant.
