Series: 505594, 505596
Leveraging full keying and colour-pairing features, foolproof CP-3.3 wire-to-wire connectors enhance user-safety while preventing moisture seepage in consumer electronics, white goods, industrial and medical applications
The MUO 2.5 termination connector replaces closed-end (CE) terminals efficiently as a grounding solution. It reduces harness assembly lead time and improves reliability and processing at OEM and cable assembly houses.
Features
Features
Fully polarized and colour-coded plug and receptacle housings ensure fool-proof mating of the wired assembly
Retainers cover expose terminal lance and prevent potential hazards
Inertia lock on receptacle housing ensures complete, low-insertion-force locking; provides tactile circuit number and audible click when mated Retainer provides end-to-end protection against moisture ingression into the connected assembly and moisture drainage Housing ribs between each cavity of the mated housings prevent seepage of condensation moisture into the connected system causing electrical shorting (Dual-row configuration)
Wire entanglement prevention feature Simple water exhaust function prevents water from permeating inside of the housings Two separate retainers protect cables and secure the terminal position
