40-Position, 2.00 mm Pitch Receptacle Housing for JST PND Series
The latch lock fastening type gives positive retention against vibration disconnects — the lock snaps audibly when the mating header is fully seated, which matters in equipment that ships assembled or sees field handling. The PNDP-40V-Z is the receptacle shell only — the female crimp socket terminals must be ordered separately, wire gauged and terminated per the JST PND series terminal specification before the housing is loaded.
Mating and Termination — Three Parts, Not One
The base product number PNDP-40V tells you this is the 40-position receptacle; the matching header will share the same PND series base code and 40-position count. The 2.00 mm pitch and dual-row layout mean the header footprint is a 40-pin, 2-row grid with 5.00 mm between rows — verify the header's row spacing matches before committing the BOM.
