Smaller PTH connector aims for rugged apps

The latest member of the 1976 series, the AVX 9176-60X PTH connector is a single-WTB (wire-to-board) insulation displacement connector with plated-through-hole (PTH) terminations that is intended to satisfy demanding cost/performance objectives in industrial control, SSL, smart grid, medical, and transportation applications. Rated for 600 Vac, and capable of accepting 24 to 18 AWG solid or stranded wires with 5 to 9-A ratings, the connector is said to meet or exceed the performance specifications of the only competing connector on the market, while offering volumetric savings with dimensions that are 13% lower in profile, 30% shorter, and 68% narrower.

The connector is compatible with potting and over-molding for sealed or waterproof environments, provides proven, gas-tight connection, and is rated for operating temperatures of −40°C to 125°C. RoHS compliant and certified to both UL and CAN/CSA C22.2, the connector is available immediately, and comes packaged on tape and reel for automated placement.
