New Environmental Sealing for Popular Connector System
Miniature Connector Available With New Sealing Options and Position Size
HARRISBURG, Pa - Jan. 10, 2006 - Tyco Electronics has enhanced the Sealed Mini Universal MATE-N-LOK connector system. This product is a small, wire-to-wire and wire- to-board connector system that adds splash proofing to a field proven product design. Sealed Mini Universal MATE-N-LOK connectors are available as a dual-row product in two through 10 and 16 positions. The latest enhancements to this product provide for alternative ganged wire seals, increasing throughput in the application and decreasing applied cost. Additionally, the ganged wire seals enable existing Miniature Universal MATE-N-LOK applications to be field retrofitted into sealed applications. Applications for this product can be found in household appliances, vending machines, HVAC equipment and other industrial/commercial applications requiring small centerlines and splash proofing. In addition to high humidity and intermittent liquid splashing installations, these connectors are also suitable for foam-in insulation use commonly found in refrigeration equipment.
Sealed Mini Universal MATE-N-LOK connectors mate with all standard Mini Universal MATE-N-LOK connectors and employ positive, polarized keys with latching orientation to ease assembly. Furthermore, the contact system remains unchanged from standard Mini Universal MATE-N-LOK connectors. Mini Universal MATE-N-LOK application tooling is also unchanged.
Cycle durability for these new connectors is rated at 20 with contact retention of at least 8 pounds per contact. The contacts are rated for 600 VAC/VDC at 9.5 amps maximum. Housings are molded UL94V-0 nylon. Contacts are brass with pre-plated tin or duplex gold plating.
This product is RoHS compliant.
Sealed Mini Universal MATE-N-LOK connectors are priced at $.15 per mated line at the 50,000-piece level. This price includes housings, contacts and seals.
