TE’s severe-duty connector

Oct 13, 2020

TE’s NTSeal 20-Position Connector is a high-density wire-to-wire connector that uses the company’s TE/Deutsch Size 16 and 20 Common Contact System for inline applications. The rugged, sealed compact connector system is IP67-, IP68- and IP6K9K-rated for use in applications exposed to extreme temperatures and engine-level vibrations. Its hybrid contact agreement provides design flexibility for power and signal applications, and its integrated tool-free mount design eliminates the need for additional parts or tools, providing quick, easy installation and repair. Back shells and mounting clips are available.
