Miniature Waterproof Shielded Connectors
LF Series
Features
1. Ease of shielded termination and connector
assembly
All components are self-aligning and do not require complex
assembly tooling. The shield of the cable is connected with the
metal housing of the connector using simple shielding clamp,
supplied with the connector.
2. Water and dust protected
IP67 protection rating. Complete protection against dust
penetration and against water penetration when mated
assembly is submerged at the depth of 1.8 meter for 48 hours.
3. Bayonet lock
Short turn bayonet lock assures secure vibration resistant
mating of the connectors.
4. High current rating capacity
5. RoHS compliant
All components and materials comply with the requirements of
the EU Directive 2002/95/EC.
Applications
Sensors, robots, injection molding machines, NC, factory
automation equipment, surveying instruments, measuring
instruments, medical equipment, surveillance cameras and
base stations.
