What this connector is
The DEL2V2P93C5G40LF is a 2-position power-only D-Sub combo plug in the DW series, fitted with female sockets on the contact side and male pins on the termination side — the standard power-passthrough configuration for board-level DC distribution. It mounts through-hole with press-fit tails, which means the contact leads are driven into plated through-holes without a solder reflow step — a useful feature when the board assembly skips wave soldering or when field-replaceable power modules need a solderless board attachment. The shell is steel with nickel plate, the dielectric is UL94 V-0 thermoplastic rated to 125°C, and the whole assembly ships in a tray package.
Power ratings and what they mean
The 40A per contact current rating is the primary selection parameter for any power-distribution BOM line. At 300V rated voltage, this covers single-phase AC and most DC bus voltages in industrial equipment. The contact finish is gold over brass — that combination maintains low contact resistance across the full mating cycle count and resists corrosion better than tin-plated contacts in any environment where humidity or mild contamination is a factor. The operating window of -55°C to 125°C brackets both cold-field and thermally stressed applications, and the UL94 V-0 rating means the housing material self-extinguishes if exposed to a fault arc — critical in enclosed equipment racks.
Where the DW 2V2 sits in the series
The shell size 1 (DE, E) / 2V2 layout is the smallest combo footprint in the DW family. The 2V2 designation means two power contacts in the standard D-Sub shell, leaving the remaining pin positions unpopulated but mechanically present — so the panel cutout, mounting-hole pattern, and board footprint are the same as a full signal-density combo. Board-lock flanges on the M3 holes take the insertion force off the contacts during mating, and grounding indents on the shell flank mate with the panel face to bleed shield current before it reaches the pins.
