FAQs
Yes. FER1D1819SY is configured for 10 cavities with #16 crimp contacts, using a threaded coupling and a straight plug mating interface. This ensures reliable electrical connections, straightforward assembly, and consistent contact performance in fixed harnesses and removable cable assemblies.
The connector is IP67 rated for complete ingress protection in challenging environments and features UL94 V0 flammability rating. It also complies with RoHS and REACH environmental standards, supporting safe use in regulated industrial applications and ensuring material compliance across global supply chains.
Best suited for rugged industrial automation, control panels, and harsh-environment harnesses, including mass transit and heavy equipment. Its fire and smoke certification, coupled with IP67 sealing, makes it a strong choice where safety, reliability, and environmental protection are critical.
Plan for a W orientation with a straight plug and thread coupling. Ensure mating shells are aligned to maintain IP67 integrity, order any required accessory options separately, and verify cavity count and crimp tooling compatibility for consistent, repeatable connections across assemblies.
With 500 mating cycles and robust sealing, the FER1D1819SY reduces field maintenance and rework costs. Its durable aluminium shell and reliable crimp contacts support long-term uptime, optimizing total cost of ownership in demanding industrial, rail, and aerospace harness applications.
