What is a Plug header?
A pin header (or simply header) is a form of electrical connector. A male pin header consists of one or more rows of metal pins molded into a plastic base, often 2.54 mm (0.1 in) apart, though available in many spacings. Male pin headers are cost-effective due to their simplicity.
What is shoulder plug?
Shoulder plugs or header plugs are made for plug type header boxes in air cooled heat exchangers/ fin fan air coolers. A shoulder plug and gasket are located opposite each tube which allows access for inspection and cleaning of individual tubes.
What is the difference between header and connector?
A header is a shortened form of pin header. The connector is generally what plugs into the header.
What size are header pins?
The most commonly seen pin headers are 0.1″ (2.54mm) single or double row connectors. This is a standard breadboard compatible pitch. These come in male and female versions, and are the connectors used to connect Arduino boards and shields together.
Why are round pin plugs not fused?
However the round pin sockets are fed of the lighting circuit which will have a 6A MCB protecting it which is fine for the cable to the light so the round pin socket doesen’t need a separate fuse.
What happens if you wire a plug wrong?
But here’s the catch: If you connect the circuit wires to the wrong terminals on an outlet, the outlet will still work, but the polarity will be backward. When this happens, a lamp, for example, will have its bulb socket sleeve energized rather than the little tab inside the socket.
What are header plugs?
Header Plugs are installed in upstream offshore/onshore oil production and initial processing installations. Header Plugs are made from Stainless Steel 316 , SS 304 ,Duplex ,Super Duplex,Carbon Steel,Brass, Inconel ,Hastelloy, Titanium and Monel .
What is a shoulder plug on a heat exchanger?
Header Plug & Shoulder Plugs for Heat Exchanger Shoulder plug or header plug are made for plugs type header boxes in air cooled heat exchangers or fin fan air coolers. A shoulder plugs and gasket are located opposite each tube which allows access for inspection and cleaning of individual tubes.
What is a shoulder plug and gasket used for?
A shoulder plug and gasket are located contrasting each tube which allows access for inspection and cleaning of individual tubes. Spare plugs and gaskets may be needed to replace originals during routine maintenance or used to plug leaking tubes.
