Below, YAXUN Electronics compiled a selection guide for TE industrial and automotive electrical connectors. Covering AMPSEAL, AMPSEAL16, CircularDIN, DEUTSCH, HDSCS, LEAVYSEAL and other products.
AEC series CONNECTOR CABLES
The family focuses on electrical and electric interconnect products for automotive, on- and off-highway vehicles, and hybrid and electric vehicles. It is a sealed heavy-duty electrical connector, and can use No. 16 DEUTSCH terminals.
AMPSEAL series cables
AMPSEAL automatic connectors offer high reliability, high environmental sealing and ease of use. Featuring cable plugs and PCB mount headers, this series of connectors can withstand the high temperatures found in engine bays. The pre-assembled receptacle housing connector has an inline seal, eliminating the need for a grommet for individual wire sealing, while an integral interface seal protects the mated connector.
AMPSEAL 16 SERIES CONNECTOR CABLES
AMPSEAL 16 connectors are designed for off-highway vehicle, heavy duty industrial, recreational and agricultural applications. These connectors are reliable, easy to use and help prevent moisture and dust from contaminating connections. AMPSEAL 16 receptacle and tab housings offer a one-piece solution and are fully assembled.
Circular DIN Series Connector Cables
Circular DIN connectors are arranged in 2-7 positions and can use 2.5mm (up to 40 amps) or 1.5mm (up to 30 amps) terminals. These connectors feature a coupling ring for mating and are suitable for wire-to-wire, flange mount, or PCB mount applications.
DRB Series Connector Cables
DEUTSCH DRB connectors are heavy-duty connectors designed for bulkhead applications. A variety of mounting flange mounting options and wire arrangements are also available. DEUTSCH DRB Connectors are suitable for on- and off-highway vehicle applications, marine, industrial, and agricultural markets.
DRC Series Connector Cables
DEUTSCH DRC Connectors are designed for multi-position harsh environment applications. These rectangular sealed connectors are available in 24-, 40-, 50-, 60-, 64-, and 70-position arrangements and accept size 16 and size 20 DEUTSCH contacts. These connectors are available in a variety of mounting options including wire-to-wire, flange mount, and PCB mount.
DT Series Connector Cables
DEUTSCH DT connector design advantages include optional flange mounting, multiple pin arrangements, and design flexibility. The connectors can withstand extreme temperature and humidity conditions thanks to a thermoplastic housing with a wide operating temperature range and silicone rear wire and interface seals.
DTHD Series Connector Cables
DEUTSCH DTHD Connectors are single terminal connectors for heavy duty applications. These connectors are easy to install, hermetically sealed, compact in size, replace common fittings, and are field repairable. DEUTSCH DTHD connectors are available in three sizes, capable of carrying 25 to 100 amps, and can be installed or used wire-to-wire. These connectors are also available in end cap and flange mount styles to increase design flexibility and help meet application needs.
DTM Series Connector Cables
DEUTSCH DTM series are hermetically sealed connectors for harsh environments, support wire-to-wire and flange mounting, and can be used in PCB mount applications. The connectors are constructed of reinforced thermoplastic and a silicone rear wire seal enables the connectors to withstand extreme temperature and humidity conditions.
DTP Series Connector Harness
DEUTSCH DTP connectors are suitable for high-power products. This series of connectors is made of reinforced thermoplastic and adopts a silicone rear wire seal to provide reliable connections in harsh environments. Designers can use multiple size 12 DEUTSCH contacts within a single housing, and each contact can carry 25 amps of continuous current.
DTV Series Connector Harness
DEUTSCH DTV Connectors help protect connections from dust, dirt, moisture, salt spray, and vibration. Suitable for wire-to-wire applications, this series of connectors is available in 18 positions and accepts size 16 DEUTSCH terminals as well as receptacles with seal-mount flange mounts that utilize secondary terminal locks. Also, protective end caps and shroud accessories are available for optimum design flexibility.
HD10 Series Connector Harness
DEUTSCH HD10 connectors are thermoplastic cylindrical connectors with sealed structure. This series of ruggedized connectors is suitable for the harsh environment of the freight, agricultural, marine, mining and construction machinery industries, and is widely used for diagnostic interfaces.
HD30 Series Connector Harness
DEUTSCH HD30 connectors feature metal housings designed to meet the needs of the heavy-duty equipment and transportation industries, and feature a circular design. Features a quick-mating swivel bayonet, silicone seal, and rear-plug/rear-disconnect terminal system. The series of connectors also includes adapters and cable retention clips to support the wires and reduce strain on the wire harness.
HDP20 Series Connector Harness
DEUTSCH HDP20 connectors are heavy-duty multi-digit connectors with a sealed structure and a composite shell. The series of connectors are available in two plastic shell sizes and are available in 19 different configurations. These configurations range in multiple positions from 2 to 47 positions, accommodating a variety of terminal sizes and wire sizes within a single housing.
LEAVYSEAL CONNECTOR HARNESS
LEAVYSEAL connectors feature a handle locking system for mating and are designed for harsh environment truck, bus and off-highway applications. These multi-position connectors are available in 15 to 92 positions. LEAVYSEAL connectors allow for mixed contact sizes in one housing.
