Model: UT4154; IEC 60512-13-2. IEC 62852
UT4154F Connector Plug-in force Insertion Extraction Tester/ Insertion and withdrawal force tester/ Connector Reliability Tester is a precision testing device specifically used to test the plug-in force performance of electronic connectors, plugs and sockets, and various plug-in components.
General Introduction
UT4154F Connector Plug-in force Insertion Extraction Tester/ Insertion and withdrawal force tester/ Connector Reliability Tester is a precision testing device specifically used to test the plug-in force performance of electronic connectors, plugs and sockets, and various plug-in components.
This device adopts a horizontal structural design, in contrast to the traditional vertical structure, and its testing platform is suitable for placing larger finished products (such as ports on household appliances, main units, and other equipment), making it convenient to test the plug-in performance of the connectors' terminals.
Its core functions include testing the insertion force, extraction force, and plug-in lifespan of connectors and terminals. It can also conduct single-pin and plastic retention force tests for connectors, NORMAL FORCE tests, small spring stroke load tests, as well as general compression and tensile destructive tests.
The equipment typically uses microcomputer, embedded microcomputer, or industrial control computer measurement and control technology, featuring high precision, high automation, data storage, and report generation capabilities. It is suitable for quality testing of a variety of connectors and electronic products, such as USB cables, pin headers and sockets, and audio jacks.
Key Features
※ Testing and analysis of the connector insertion and removal life degradation curve;
※ Connector full-row insertion and removal testing, single PIN retention force testing;
※ Testing of connector insertion force versus displacement and extraction force versus displacement;
※ Connector single-hole insertion and removal test, connector normal force testing;
※ General compression and tensile fracture tests;

2.1, With the patented automatic centering device, completely accurate insertion and withdrawal force tests can be obtained.
2.2, Using Windows, the setup is done through Chinese graphical interfaces, making operation simple and convenient, and all data can be stored (test conditions, displacement curves, lifetime curves, inspection reports, etc.).
2.3, At the same time, it solves the fixture problems of various connector tests, and during testing, male and female connectors can automatically align, preventing issues of one-sided engagement.
2.4, Printable storage graphics (insertion/extraction displacement curve, lifespan curve, inspection report);
2.5, Beyond the original design, user-friendly machine interface testing;
2.6, Test data stored on hard disk (each record can be saved, unlimited times);
2.7, Test conditions can be set on the computer screen, convenient and fast (including insertion/extraction stroke, speed, pause time, etc.);
2.8, Inspection report header content can be modified at any time (both Chinese and English);
2.9, Inspection reports can be converted to .WORD, EXCEL, PDF for editing;
2.10, Paired with a dynamic impedance testing system, it can test dynamic impedance while testing insertion/extraction force and draw the "Load-Stroke-Impedance Curve".

Standard
IEC 62852 applies to connectors used in DC circuits of photovoltaic systems that comply with IEC 61140:2001 Class II, with a rated voltage of up to 1,500 V DC and a rated current of up to 125 A per contact. It is suitable for connectors that do not have breaking capacity but may be mated and unmated under voltage.
The mechanical tests focus on verifying the "structural strength, operational durability, and mechanical protection of connectors." These tests are distributed across Test Group A (Mechanical Test Group), Test Group B (Service Life Test Group B), Test Group C (Service Life Test Group C), and miscellaneous tests.
Frequently Asked Questions
Optional Touching Screen type UT4154A Horizontal Connector Plug-in force Insertion Extraction Tester

Horizontal Connector Plug-in force Insertion Extraction Tester is suitable for testing the insertion and pull-out of various connectors. It uses embedded microcomputer control technology, can simultaneously display insertion force, pull-out force, and real-time force values, and features count setting, adjustable speed and stroke, as well as displaying speed values, automatic zeroing, and unit conversion. The rotary eccentric wheel power design ensures that the test speed is not related to the test stroke, allowing both long and short stroke connectors to be tested quickly. It can be considered the most cost-effective connector lifetime tester currently on the market.
