ECONOMY POWER 2.5 CONNECTORS
Quick Reference Guide
The Economy Power 2.5 (EP 2.5) connector is a single row or dual row crimp connector system. Based on a 2.5mm (0.098”) centerline pitch, it is a very compact solution. EP 2.5 connectors provide a comprehensive connectivity solution with vertical and right angle headers, optional TPA retainers, wire-to-wire and wire-toboard options and a range of resin materials that include types meeting Glow Wire Test and UL 94 V-0 standards, as well as packaging to support automated board assembly. Additionally, EP 2.5 connectors are intermateable with similar products  available in the market,facilitating simple retrofitting.
With board space increasingly at a premium, the EP 2.5 connector series offers an ideal interconnection solution for densely packed printed circuit boards. EP 2.5 housings and contacts were designed to help workers on the shop floor. The terminals have an asymmetrical shape. This means they can only be loaded into the housing cavity one way – the right way. Ideal for household appliances, HVAC and industrial machinery, EP 2.5 connectors offers this extensive portfolio for all design needs and challenges.

† † 2299683-1 has a narrow (0.85 mm wide) latch to readily mate with a competitive manufacturer’s 2-position plug of a similar design or with new TE EP 2.5 2-position plug
2301559-2. 2299683-2 has a 1.6 mm wide latch to readily mate with TE EP 2.5 2-position plug 1969442-2.
Dual Row Plug Housing

Terminals

LIF sockets reduce insertion force about 60% from that of standard sockets. Maximum insertion force is 3.5 N for the new LIF sockets, versus maximum insertion force of
8.9 N for standard sockets.

Application Tooling

Both the tab and receptacle contact can be applied to wire using OCEAN applicatior for automatic and semi-automatic applications. For low volume production and
prototype work, a hand-tool is available to crimp the contacts to wire.
