The spring contact probes are used to create
an electrical connection between the object that to be tested and the testing
system. These contact probes are primarily used for electrical testing of
printed circuit boards, connectors, cables and various other electrical
components and assemblies. The main advantages of the spring contact probes are:
·
Constant contact resistance.
Constant contact resistance.
·
High pointing accuracy.
·
Longevity.
·
High currents and frequencies as
possible.
·
Easy installation in the test
adapter by using receptacles
·
Interchangeable.
Other categories are interface probes, probes with
rolling ball, switch probes, high current probes, threaded probes; pneumatic
probes etc. Flat tip pin size contact probe is suitable for solder pads and
contact pins. Different uses of contact probes are according to the tip pin
size. High current probes are used for high current application, specially
designed for a very small probe resistance.
Probes are a durable component, which can
perform several hundred thousand contact cycles with stable contact resistance.
The variety of spring contact probe allows the user to find the perfect test
needle for each application. Each probe
is used for different purposes. The users have to choose according to the tip
style, length, spring force and travel time. Moreover, the
spring contact probes are used to
test the printed circuit boards, connectors, wire harness and other electronic
components. They can be used in interfaces and easily removable electrical
connections. The contact probes of springs do not require tolerance
compensation because they are suitable for all contacting requirements in
two-terminal measurement. Altogether, the contact probes of spring produce
different materials such as brass, steel or copper beryllium. It contains a broad
range of head shapes with a diameter between 0.5 and 3mm forms of your standard
product range. You can find the spring contact probes from Equip-test.
