Frequently Asked Questions
Which relay socket types is the TE Connectivity 2022103-1 retaining clip compatible with?
The 2022103-1 is designed to fit TE Connectivity plug-in relay sockets with standard 11-pin or 8-pin form factors. The snap-fit retention mechanism accommodates socket widths from 22 mm to 35 mm depending on the relay body size, making it compatible with common industrial control relay families used in 24 V DC and 120/240 V AC control circuits.
How does the retaining clip improve relay reliability in high-vibration industrial environments?
In applications with continuous mechanical vibration—such as motor control panels or conveyor systems—relay contacts can intermittently open due to the relay body lifting from the socket. The 2022103-1 applies a positive retention force of approximately 10 N to 15 N, holding the relay seated and ensuring contact resistance stays below 50 mΩ under IEC 60068-2-6 vibration conditions.
Can the 2022103-1 be reused after relay replacement, and what is its expected service life?
Yes, the 2022103-1 is designed for multiple installation and removal cycles, with a rated service life of at least 50 insertion cycles before clip retention force degrades. The polymer material withstands operating temperatures from -40°C to +85°C, allowing reuse across the full life of a control panel without needing to order replacement clips for every relay swap.
