Product details

3-Position VH Series Receptacle Housing

Pitch and Footprint Fit

The 3.96mm pitch places this housing in the power-class spacing band — wider than the 2.54mm pitch of signal headers, narrower than the 5.08mm or 7.62mm of terminal blocks. The mating header's pin layout must match this 0.156" pitch exactly; a 3-position header at 3.96mm pitch is the required board-side counterpart. The single-row arrangement keeps the connector narrow, suiting it for edge-of-board or inline harness positions where board area is tight.

Contacts and Termination

The natural PA6 nylon housing provides the insulation and mechanical retention; the electric shock prevention feature refers to the fully shrouded design that shields the male pins when unmated.

Frequently asked questions

What contacts are used with the VHR-3M housing?

The VHR-3M accepts JST VH series female socket crimp terminals. Contacts are not included with the housing and must be ordered separately — the specific terminal part number depends on the wire gauge and plating requirement.

Does the VHR-3M housing include a locking latch?

Yes, the housing features a latch lock that engages with the mating header's locking ramp, providing positive retention against vibration and accidental disconnection.

What is the pitch of the VHR-3M?

The pitch is 0.156" (3.96mm), a standard spacing for power-class wire-to-board connectors in the JST VH series.
