March 24, 2009--ITT Interconnect Solutions has developed a range of APD connectors designed to resist high vibration and attack by aggressive liquids. Designated APD 1, 7 and 51-way devices, these locking connectors are built to provide a high sealing capability combined with simplified handling, making them suitable for off-road vehicles, boats, industrial automation, and defense applications.
The RoHS-compliant APD 1, 7 and 51-way connectors use high grade PBT for the connector housings and copper alloy contacts. Secure connector coupling is assured, says ITT, with bayonet mating and secondary contact locking. The product range is available in 1, 2 power and 7-51 signal contact versions.
Technical specifications include maximum current per contact of 70A and an IP rating of up to IP69K--on demand IP68. Contacts are available in either tin or gold-plated and can be stamped-and-formed or machined for PCB application. Useable wire sizes range from 0.25mm˛ to 50mm˛. The APD 1, 7 and 51 way range has been designed to meet all DIN 72585 requirements.
