2mm Pitch, Positive lock, Wire-to-Board Connector (UL, C-UL Listed)
DF51K Series
Features
1. Positive lock provides clear tactile click
and secures reliable connection
The locking mechanism delivers a clear tactile click, which
prevents incomplete mating. (Fig.1)
2. Wide variation
Straight and right angle types are available in single row and
double row contact arrangements for 󽗊exible board design.
Gold and Tin plating options support various application needs.
3. Easy Lock Release
The width of the center lock lever increases as the pin count
increases for easy extraction.
Additionally, the center lock design does not need side-to-side
spacing to un-mate the connector, which enables high density
mounting. (Fig.2)
4. Prevents incorrect mating
Visually and mechanically polarized design prevents reverse
mating and incorrect mating between di󽗈erent number of
positions. (Fig.3)
5. Suitable for potting
Capable of being potted up to 3mm. (Fig.3)
6.
Uses the same crimp tools as DF11 Series
Wide applicable cable range : 22 to 30 AWG.
(However, the crimp contact of DF51K and DF11 are not
compatible with each other.)
7.
UL, C-UL certi󽗉ed

In cases where the application will demand a high level of reliability, such as automotive,
please contact a company representative for further information.
Secure mating with clear tactile click
Matching peak insertion forces provides
a clear click sound and tactile click
High workability and high density mounting
due to center lock design
Center lock width gets wider as the pin count increases
for easy operation.

Precautions for use
1. The connector could be damaged if pulled out forcibly. When it is hard to pull out, push it in slightly 󽗉rst and then depress
the lock and un-mate.
Please refer to “DF51K mating and unmating Procedure Document (DOC180208-010)” for points in handling regarding mating
operations.
2. When mating a crimped contact into a socket, please refrain from inserting it diagonally in order to maintain performance reliability.
Please refer to the "Harness procedure manual (DOC180330-002)" for points in harness operations.
Operating Environment
Please contact a Hirose representative if you are designing this connector into environmental conditions where high and low
temperatures are repeated.
While taking in consideration
Speci󽗉cations mentioned in this catalog are reference values.
When considering to order or use this product, please con󽗉rm the " Drawing" and " Product Speci󽗉cations" sheets.
Use an appropriate cable when using the connector in combination with cables.
If considering usage of a non-speci󽗉ed cable, please contact your sales representative.
If assembly process is done by jigs & tools which are not identi󽗉ed by Hirose assurance will not be given.
If considering usage for below mentioned applications, please contact your sales representative.
In cases where the application will demand a high level of reliability, such as automotive, medical instruments, public infrastructure,
aerospace/ defense etc. Hirose must review before assurance of reliability can be given.
