15-Position Sealed Receptacle Housing for Harsh Environments
The TE Connectivity 2-1563878-1 is a 15-position gray receptacle housing from the Heavy Duty Sealed Connector Series, MCP 1.5K/2.8. The two-row layout with 6.00 mm row spacing and a slide-on fastening system suits it for sealed harness assemblies in engine compartments, industrial machinery, and outdoor equipment where moisture and vibration are present.
Sealed Construction and Temperature Range
The housing is explicitly marked as sealed, making it suitable for applications requiring protection against water ingress and dust when mated with the corresponding plug. The insulation material is glass-filled PBT, providing dimensional stability at elevated temperatures and resistance to common automotive fluids.
Mating and Contact Information
The mating plug or header is a separate male housing from the same MCP 1.5K/2.8 series — confirm the specific plug part number for your circuit count and keying. The slide-on fastening provides a positive lock when mated. For the crimp terminals themselves, refer to the TE MCP 1.5K/2.8 terminal family; the housing does not include them.
