CONEC Develops Solid-Body IP67-Rated D-Sub Connector

Fewer components make connector more durable and reliable for harsh environments.

Garner, NC, October 14, 2010 --(PR.com)-- CONEC, a manufacturer of high-quality machined connectors, has advanced its water-resistant D-sub series of connectors with an even more rugged one-piece, solid-body version. This robust design performs better against mechanical impacts during installation and operation and has less possible leak paths, making it ideal for applications such as industrial machinery, medical equipment, test and measurement equipment and communications.

“Others in the industry saw the D-sub as a mature product that couldn’t be improved upon, but we saw the possibilities for making it even more reliable while maintaining the end-user’s price expectations,” said Jim Lieb, Vice President, Sales, at CONEC. “Because the solid body reduces the number of components that make up the connector, it provides an even more rugged, more reliable D-sub connection, particularly for customers with industrial applications or those which need to perform outdoors in inclement weather, or harsh environments.”

The IP67-rated solid-body D-sub connector has a silicone O-ring panel seal for a watertight connection. CONEC ensures high performance with gold-plated machined contacts. The connector is available in standard, high-density and combination D-sub configurations, and with solder-cup, right-angle and straight terminations.

The solid-body, nickel-plated, zinc diecast housing conforms to current solder requirements for RoHS-compliant solder temperatures. The entire product range is UL Listed, rated to IP67 and can be mated to standard shell sizes 1 through 5 in D-sub standard, D-sub high density and mixed-layout configurations.

The IP67-rated D-sub connectors ensure a continuously secure connection, are dustproof, and protect against temporary submersion in water.

Connector pricing is dependent on configuration selection starting at $6.00 each in OEM quantities, with a lead time of stock to 6 weeks.
