19-Way Connector Includes Secondary Locking Mechanism January 05, 2009
The APD 19-way circular connector targets volume products requiring a technically robust component and is capable of withstanding harsh and wet-area environments. The connector features a unique secondary locking mechanism based on patent-pending technology and requires no special contact removal tools to unlock the secondary locking contact insert while in the field. With 19 contacts, users have the option of increasing that to 27 contacts by utilizing smaller contact sizes. For applications requiring a larger load capacity, users can reduce pin count by employing higher power contacts up to 50 mm2 and 0 AWG wire. Other features include a plastic circular housing with visual and audible feedback. ITT INDUSTRIES, CANNON, Santa Ana, CA. (714) 557-4700.
