FAQ
Heavy Duty Sealed Connector Series Housings
Q: When should I use the Heavy Duty Sealed Connector Series?
A: Heavy Duty Sealed Connector Series provides reliability and performance on the engine or transmission, under the hood, for motor controllers, solenoid interfaces, on the chassis, or in the cab. It offers field-proven reliability and rugged quality. Rectangular, thermoplastic housings offer a wide operating temperature range, and silicone rear wire and interface seals allow the connectors to withstand conditions of extreme temperature and moisture. The connectors feature an integrated slide lock for mating and an integrated secondary locking device for contact alignment and retention.
Q: Whatis the vibration rating for the Heavy Duty Sealed Connector Series?
A: No physical damage of housings and contacts, no derogation of function; the connection may not open at 177 m/s2, 94 hours for each of the three axes. See product specification 108-94020 for full specifications.
Q: What is the flammability rating for the Heavy Duty Sealed Connector Series?
A: Product with a UL 94 V0 rated material is available.
