Universal Test Socket accepts devices on 0.300 to 0.600 [7.62 to 15.24] centers All pin count sockets go into PCB with either 0.300 or 0.600 [7.62 or 15.24] centers Contacts are normally closed to eliminate dependence on plastic to sustain contact Socket handle can be configured with closed contacts (on) when in the UP or DOWN position, and can be mounted on either the right or left side Sockets can be soldered into PCBs. Socket fits into Aries’ test socket receptacle on Data Sheet 10003
