Omnetics SureCon 360° watertight overmoulded circular connector

Click2Contact

Omnetics has introduced the SureCon 360° - a watertight, overmoulded circular connector to the Nano 360° series.

The connector uses a rugged and reliable Flex-Pin contact system. Spaced on 0.64 mm centerlines, the connector line is part of a small mil-quality circulars family. The small outer diameters range from 8.3 to 9.8 mm.

With the ability to withstand high shock and vibration while maintaining electrical integrity, these connectors are suitable for demanding applications.

Gold-plated contacts are polarised and shrouded by a liquid crystal polymer insulator and are designed to maintain flexibility and low contact resistance. Insulator sizes of six, 11 and 16 contact arrangements are available in a pre-cabled format.

All three sizes are available in both inline and protruding panel-mount configurations. Elaborate wire harnessing, custom overmoulding and custom shells are also available on request.

Three versions will be available. Each version will use a market-specific cable and plastic overmould with characteristics known to be vital for usage within that particular field.

The Commercial version will feature a standard 32 AWG cable, with a grey jacket material of TPE or TPU depending on pin count.

The Military/Aero version features a flame-retardant, halogen-free, 32 AWG cable with a braided shield, covered by a black TPU jacket.

The Medical version features a bio-compatible (per ISO10993) 32 AWG cable, covered with a light-grey TPU jacket.

Electrical specifications include: current: 1 A per contact, DWV: 250 VAC at sea level; insulation resistance: 5000 MΩ min at 100 VDC; contact resistance: 25 mΩ (25 mV) max at 1 A; temperature: -55 to 85°C; vibration: 20 Gs, no discontinuity greater than 10 ns; shock: 100 Gs, no discontinuity greater than 10 ns.
