CONNECTOR ENHANCEMENTS
INTRODUCTION
As part of our continuous improvement process the pb^`lk
®
Group consistently reviews it's product ranges through both customer feed-
back and internal improvements. It is via these processes that pb^`lk
®
identified a design enhancement to the jáÅêçtbqJ`lk connector
ranges. This new design improvement has now been implemented not only across this connector range, but also the new jáÅêçtbqJ`lk
péäáíSeries.
DESIGN FEATURES
The design change is associated with the Male Pin connectors only and has been introduced to improve and extend the life of the connec-
tors by decreasing the stresses that are applied to the sealing interface between the male contact pin and the sealing rubber around the pin
during the connectors mate and de-mate cycles.
The newly designed male contact has a "Lead in" as part of the contact pin itself which replaces the current rubber lead in. The introduction
of the new pin removes any potential wear to the sealing interface between the male contact pin and the sealing rubber around the pin which
may occur with many repeated make and breaks of the connector pairs. The new pin will maintain the full connector sealing properties and
will provide a greater life expectancy of the connectors.
The incorporation of this design change to the Male Pin connectors will not affect the existing Female Socket connectors currently being used
by pb^`lk
®
's customers and therefore full intermateability will be maintained. In addition, pb^`lk
®
would also like to confirm that pricing
will also not be affected.
TESTING
This new pin design concept has been fully tested and has been utilized in both the rJj^qb and SEA-MATE connector ranges for a num-
ber of years.
MCAT ATTACHABLE
jáÅêç tbq`lk
Due to global demand to terminate standard rubber molded connectors onto specialized or customer furnished cable, pb^ `lk Global
Production has introduced an MCAT version of the successful jáÅêçtbqJ`lk connector series.
This new connector can be terminated virtually anywhere eliminating the need for shipping bulky long lengths of cable. In addition the end
user is able to produce a reduced length termination without the need for additional cable splices and have one continuous cable diameter for
the total length of the cable.
The MCAT connector is fully inter-mateable with like configured jáÅêçtbqJ`lk inline and bulkhead connectors. For further information and
for cable jacket materials that can be accommodated please contact pb^`lk
