Description
• Eight shell sizes, numbered 16-17-18-20-22-
24-26-28.
•Assembly and removal of push-on contacts
into the insulator via the rear of the shell.
• Assembly and removal of screw contacts via
the rear of the insulator.
• Leaktight sealing caps for plugs and
receptacles.
• Watertightness of shells and accessories via
O-ring seals (15 and 19).
• Seal with the cable via cable gland-type
elastomer seal (26).
• Cable held at 3 levels: cable clamp
(27 and 28), cable gland (25 and 26),
braid grip (21, 22, 23 and 24).
• Cable boot (29) for limiting the radius
of curvature of the cable on leaving the
connector.
