Digi-Key now stocking Molex Mini-Fit H2O sealed connector system


Mar 24, 2010

THIEF RIVER FALLS, Minn. -- Electronic components distributor Digi-Key announced that it now has stock on Molex's Mini-Fit H2O sealed connector system.

Designed for use in weatherproof applications requiring a sealed system, the Mini-Fit H2O system is IP67-rated, which ensures connector integrity when submerged in up to one meter of water. The Mini-Fit H2O plug and receptacle assemblies include pre-installed, integrated interface and wire seals to decrease cost and assembly time. A positive-locking system securely mates the connectors and prevents accidental un-mating.

The Mini-Fit H2O terminals have a new "wingless" design that will not damage seals upon installation or removal. Terminals can accept both 18 and 20AWG, UL 1015 wires. The Mini-Fit H2O housings are molded from a UV stabilized UL 94V-0 material that can be used in applications exposed to direct sunlight.

Molex's Mini-Fit H2O product family of plug and receptacle assemblies and male and female crimp terminals are available for purchase on Digi-Key's global websites and will be featured in future print and online catalogs.
