The gray PBT, glass-filled insulation carries a sealed feature, making it suitable for underhood automotive, off-highway equipment, and industrial applications where moisture and dust are present.
What Contacts Are Needed and How to Terminate
The housing accepts the standard MCP 1.5K terminal for 1.5 mm² wire (roughly 15-17 AWG), terminated with a hand or pneumatic crimp tool. The single-row, 3-position layout keeps the assembly compact for inline harness splices or sensor connections.
Sealed Construction and Operating Range
The sealed feature means the housing is designed to meet IP ratings when mated with the corresponding male header and properly seated seals — typical for MCP 1.5K connectors used in engine compartments, transmission interfaces, and exposed chassis harnesses. The -40°C to 140°C operating temperature range covers cold starts and underhood heat soak, exceeding the -40°C to 125°C common in many automotive connectors.
