TE Connectivity has released its HDSCS connector family, an evolving product line that provides solutions for applications that require a sealed, rugged connection. The connectors are made of durable UL 94-V0 grade thermoplastics designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the bus, truck, agricultural, mining and construction industries. This connector uses the company's field-proven AMP MCP contacts and offers arrangements from two to 18 positions, making it one of the largest series of sealed connectors on the market.
These connectors have an integrated secondary locking feature with poka-yoke capability and can be used for flange mounting in series applications or wire-to-wire or wire-to-device configurations. The connectors are IP67 and IP6K9K (used in conjunction with the back cover), offering five housing sizes and four keying options. Options for the CAN bus architecture are also available. Accessories that protect the connector provide further protection.
"TE is the first company to bring our series of hermetic connectors to market. We develop products and continuously innovate interfaces and designs based on technology trends and customer needs.
