What is RAST? lStandardmating interface Applies to the interconnect product family. 2 Rast = 'Raster Anschluss Steck Technik' (roughly translated as Pitch Connection Plug Technology). Rast =& ldquo; Raster Anschluss Steck Technik& rdquo; 3The term is usually followed by a numerical value (e.g. RAST 2.5, RAST 5) which represents the contact centerline spacing of the interconnect in millimeters.？ RAST design usually usesInsulation Displacement Connection (IDC) Instead of the traditional crimp style quick disconnect. The RAST standard specifies a number of connection characteristics 1Geometric dimensions of the connector housing 2 component/tag name (depends on component) 3 color coding of housing 4 polarization and keying functions to prevent incorrect assembly 5 Optional internal or external locking mechanisms for increased interconnect retention？
Keying of RAST connectors simplifies manufacturing In many cases, keying/polarizing functionality can be customized on automated terminal equipment, reducing the number of different parts that must be kept in inventory. position keying locking No 0 if adjacent keyword Direct connectors are keyed with key ribs and closed sides (located).The printed circuit board has ancillary relief. Lock indirect connectors by omitting the keying nose.The attached keying window for the label title is closed (same as for the boot frame with a direct connector). In Europe, RAST using IDC has been used for over 25 years Reduce labor content and rationalize lMinimize assembly errors 2-latch system improves case retention and system reliability. 3-polarization and keying capabilities reduce clogging errors. 4 Simplify the manufacturing of wire harnesses 5 Use multi-position connectors to reduce parts in your wiring harness 6It facilitates parallel or cross-over designs, Therefore, the wiring harness design is simplified.Simplification to reduce assembly errors 7 Being pre-installed in the housing, the contacts are less susceptible to shipping and handling damage.better quality
