Sealed Plug Housing for Harsh Environments
What the Current Rating Depends On
The housing itself carries a dual current rating of 3.5A and 5A. The actual current the assembly can carry depends on the specific socket contact crimped into the housing and the wire gauge used — the 5A figure typically applies with larger-gauge wire and the correct contact.
Mating Cycles and Field Service
Rated for 30 mating cycles, this housing is intended for install-and-forget applications rather than frequent reconnection. The 30-cycle limit is typical for a sealed connector where the IP67 seal is compressed on each mate — after repeated cycles the seal may degrade, reducing ingress protection.
Mounting type is free hanging (in-line), meaning the connector is not panel-mounted but rather floats on the cable assembly, which simplifies routing in tight enclosures.
