1. INTRODUCTION
This specification covers the requirements for application of mini--universal MATE--N--LOK splash--proof sealed
connectors. These connectors are designed to be used with splash--proof seals that will ensure a water and
dust resistant assembly. The connectors are available in plug housings and cap housings for wire--to--wire
free--hanging and panel mount applications, and vertical pin headers and right--angle pin headers for wire--to--
printed circuit (pc) board applications. Each connector consists of a housing and contacts. The connectors
have dual rows available in 2, 4, 6, 8, or 10 positions with a contact centerline spacing of 4.14 mm [.163 in.].
The housings accept crimp type contacts. End contact cavities of the cap housing are marked to provide circuit
identification. A raised alignment rib along the side of the plug housing indicates Position 1. The cap housing
features mounting ears and panel stops to aid in mounting to a panel. The contacts are available in
loose--piece form for terminating with manual hand--held tools, and in strip form for terminating with
semi--automatic or automatic machines.
The pin headers contain through--hole solder type contacts. The pin headers feature integral boardlocks to
provide stability for placement on the pc board and standoffs to facilitate pc board cleaning after the soldering
operation. The pin headers are placed on the pc board by hand.
When corresponding with Tyco Electronics Personnel, use the terminology provided in this specification to
facilitate your inquiries for information. Basic terms and features of this product are provided in Figure 1.

1.1. Seals
The seals are available to be installed onto the connectors to ensure a sealed assembly. The interface seal
protects the connecting point between mating connectors, the cavity plug seal protects the opening of an
unused contact cavity, and the wire seal protects the opening around the contact cavity containing a contact or
keying plug.
1.2. Polarization and Keying Plugs
The connectors are polarized for proper mating. The contact cavities with chamfered edges (each forming a
“D” shaped opening) at the mating face of the connector provide proper connector alignment, and the location
of the these cavities ensure proper connector orientation. Because mating connectors must have identical
number of positions, the location of these cavities is specific to the connector positions. Keying plugs are
available for further assurance of proper mating.
1.3. Mating
When the connectors are properly mated, positive locking mechanisms (locking latch on plug housing and
locking tab on cap housing and pin headers) prevent accidental disengagement of mated connectors.

3. REQUIREMENTS
3.1. Special Assembly Considerations
The following information must be considered when designing the system into which these connectors are
installed:
— These connectors are interchangeable with mini--universal MATE--N--LOK connectors; however,
applications using any unsealed product (connector, contact, or keying plug) will not perform as a sealed
assembly
— The pin headers described in this document do not have drain holes. Pin headers with drain holes
MUST NOT be used in sealed applications
3.2. Safety
Do not stack product shipping containers so high that the containers buckle or deform.
3.3. Storage
A. Ultraviolet Light
Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet light may deteriorate the chemical composition used in the connector
material.
B. Shelf Life
The connectors should remain in the shipping containers until ready for use to prevent deformation to
components. The connectors should be used on a first in, first out basis to avoid storage contamination
that could adversely affect performance.
The seals must be stored in sealed plastic bags to prevent seals from drying and cracking.
C. Chemical Exposure
Do not store connectors near any chemical listed below as they may cause stress corrosion cracking in
the components.
Alkalies Ammonia Citrates Phosphates Citrates Sulfur Compounds
Amines Carbonates Nitrites Sulfur Nitrites Tartrates

3.5. Wire Preparation
A. Wire Stripping
Proper strip length is necessary to properly insert the wire into the contact. Reasonable care must be
taken not to nick, scrape, or cut any part of the wire during the stripping operation. The strip length of the
wire is shown in Figure 4. There must be no loose wire strands and the conductors must not be cut. The
wire insulation must be round and there must be no flaws, dents, or other damage.
B. Wire Seal
The wire seal must be installed onto the wire before or after stripping the wire. It is recommended to install
the wire seal after stripping the wire; however, if installing before stripping the wire, the wire seal must be
protected from being damaged during the stripping operation. The wire seal must be installed onto the
wire, flanged end (end opposite the throat) first. The wire seal must be located on the wire so that the wire
insulation is flush with or extends beyond the wire seal to the dimension stated in Figure 4.
After installation, there must be no flaws or other damage to the wire seal, and the shape of the wire seal
must be maintained.

Mini- Universal MATE- N- LOK Splash- Proof Sealed Connectors 114- 13089
Rev B6 of 20 Tyco Electronics Corporation
A. Cutoff Tab and Burr
The cutoff tab is the remaining portion of the carrier strip after the contact is cut from the strip. The
following dimensional requirements will ensure proper application for these contacts.
1. The cutoff tab must not exceed the dimension shown in Figure 5.
2. There must be no burr resulting from the cutoff tab shearing.
B. Flash
The flash is the formation that may appear on both sides of the wire barrel as the result of crimping. Flash
must not exceed the dimension shown in Figure 5.
C. Wire Barrel Seam
The seam between the two sides of the wire barrel must be completely closed. There must be no loose
wire strands or wire strands visible in the seam. Wire strands must not be embedded in the outside of the
wire barrel.
D. Wire Barrel Crimp
The crimp applied to the wire barrel is the most compressed area and is critical in ensuring optimum
electrical and mechanical performance of the crimped contact. No strands can be folded back over the
wire insulation. The wire barrel crimp height and width must be within the dimensions provided in Figure 5.
E. Insulation Barrel Crimp
The insulation barrel must be crimped in the “F” crimp where the tips of the insulation barrel turn inward
and capture the throat of the wire seal and the wire insulation. The insulation barrel crimp width must be
within the dimensions provided in Figure 5.
F. Bellmouths
The front bellmouth and rear bellmouth shall be evident and conform to the dimensions shown in Figure 5.
G. Effective Crimp Length
Effective crimp length is defined as that portion of the wire barrel, excluding bellmouths, fully formed by the
tooling. For optimum crimp effectiveness, the crimp must be within the area shown in Figure 5.
H. Wire Location
The wire conductors must be visible within the transition area (between the wire barrel and insulation
barrel). The wire insulation may be visible within the transition area. Wire strands must not extend beyond
the height of the wire barrel. The conductor ends must be flush with, or extend beyond, the end of the wire
barrel to the dimension shown in Figure 5.
I. Locking Lances
The locking lances shall not be deformed in any way. The position of each locking lance, measured from
the body of the contact to the tip of the locking lance, must be within the specified limit in Figure 5.
J. Wire Seal Location and Workmanship
The wire seal shall not enter the wire barrel. The throat of the wire seal must protrude into the transition
area (between the wire barrel and insulation barrel) to the minimum stated in Figure 5.
There shall be no cuts, flaws, or other damage to the wire seal. The tips of the insulation barrel may
partially pierce the throat of the wire seal; however, the throat must not be split. The insulation barrel crimp
must maintain an even grip on the throat of the wire seal without tilting. The wire seal shall not slant
beyond the limit provided in Figure 5.

3.7. Interface Seal
The interface seal must be installed onto the plug housing. The installed interface seal must fit inside the
channel at the base of the silos of the plug housing. The interface seal must remain flat against the back of the
channel and shall not be twisted. There shall be no tears, rips, or other damage to the interface seal. Refer to
Figure 8.
A method to prevent damage to the interface seal is to use the mating cap housing (without contacts) or pin header
(not installed onto pc board) to slide the interface seal along the silos and against the back of the channel.
3.8. Installing Contacts into Housing
The contacts must be installed into the plug housing and cap housing. Each contact must be inserted into a
contact cavity at the wire end of the housing until it bottoms (there should be an audible “click”). For optimum
sealing performance, the wire seal on the contact must have at least two of the three flanges fully inserted into
the contact cavity. Each contact must be locked into place. Refer to Figure 8.
Because of the wire seal, these contacts require more insertion force than unsealed contacts (without a wire seal).
3.9. Cavity Plug Seal
The cavity plug seal must be installed into any unused contact cavities of the plug housing and cap housing.
The cavity plug seal must be inserted (short tab end first) into the contact cavity at the wire end of the housing.
For optimum sealing performance, the cavity plug seal must have at least two of the three flanges fully inserted
into the contact cavity. See Figure 8.
A cavity plug seal must also be installed in any mating contact cavity containing a keying plug. See Figure 8.
The cavity plug seals can be installed manually or by using Insertion Tool 91002--1. Instruction for using the tool is
provided on Instruction Sheet 408--7347.
3.10. Keying Plug
The keying plug must be installed into an empty contact cavity in the plug housing or cap housing. The keying
plug must be inserted (tapered end first) into the contact cavity at the mating face of the housing until it
bottoms (there should be an audible “click”).

The contact cavity containing the keying plug must be sealed using a wire seal. The wire seal must be installed
into the contact cavity at the wire end of the housing after the keying plug is installed. The wire seal must be
inserted flanged end (end opposite the throat) first, over the keying plug and into the contact cavity. For
optimum sealing performance, the wire seal must have at least two of the three flanges fully inserted into the
contact cavity. See Figure 8.
The wire seal can be installed over the keying plug and into the contact cavity manually or by using Insertion Tool
91002--1. Instruction for using the tool is provided on Instruction Sheet 408--7347.
If a keying plug is installed into a housing, the corresponding contact cavity of the mating connector must
contain a cavity plug seal.

3.12. Pin Header Placement
Pin headers should be handled only by the housing to avoid deformation, contamination, or damage to the contact
solder tails.
The pin header number one position must be aligned with the number one position pc board hole. When
placing pin headers on the pc board, the contact solder tails and boardlock must be aligned and started into
their matching holes before seating the pin header onto the pc board. After seating, the shoulder of the
boardlock must be through the pc board, and the standoffs must be seated on the pc board. See Figure 12.

3.13. Soldering
Observe guidelines and procedures when soldering header assembly contacts. All solder joints should conform
to those specified in Workmanship Specification 101--21 and all other requirements specified in this document.
Solder, clean, and dry all wire leads to contacts according to the following:
A. Flux Selection
Contacts must be fluxed prior to soldering with a mildly active, rosin base flux. Selection of the flux will
depend on the type of pc board and other components mounted on the board. Additionally, the flux must
be compatible with the wave solder line, manufacturing, health, and safety requirements. Call PRODUCT
INFO at the number at the bottom of page 1 for consideration of other types of flux. Flux that is compatible
with these connectors is provided in Figure 13.

Consideration must be given to toxicity and other safety requirements recommended by the solvent manufacturer.
Refer to the manufacturer’s Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for characteristics and handling of cleaners.
Trichloroethylene and Methylene Chloride is not recommended because of harmful occupational and environmental
effects. Both are carcinogenic (cancer--causing).
If you have a particular solvent that is not listed, contact Product Information at the number at the bottom of page 1.
D. Drying
When drying cleaned assemblies and pc boards, make certain that temperature limitations are not
exceeded: --55_to 105_C[--68_to 221_F]. Excessive temperatures may cause degradation or
deterioration.
3.14. Checking Installed Pin Header
All solder joints should conform to those specified in Workmanship Specification 101--21 and all other
requirements specified in this document. The installed pin header must have solder fillets evenly formed
around each contact with no skips or voids. There should be no solder on the boardlocks. Refer to Figure 16.

3.16. Mounting Cap Housing in Panel
The cap housing must be inserted (mating face first) through the panel cutout in the same direction as the
punch. The panel stops must be flush with the panel, and the mounting ears must be against the panel. The
serrations on the mounting ears are designed to ensure a tight fit between the connector and panel by
accommodating any of the panel thicknesses within range. See Figure 18.
Before removing the cap housing from the panel, the mounting ears must be deflected until clear of the panel.
The cap housing can be removed from either the front or back of the panel.

3.17. Mating and Unmating
Mating connectors must have identical number of positions. When mating, the housing must be pushed
straight into the housing or header. The locking latch of the plug housing must engage and be fully seated on
the locking tab of the cap housing or pin header after mating. The interface seal must be flat and compressed
against the back of the channel at the base of the silos of the plug housing. Refer to Figure 19.
The locking latch of the plug housing must be depressed to release the locking tab of the cap housing or pin
header. The plug housing must be pulled straight out of the mating connector. After unmating the connectors,
the interface seal must be inspected for damage or twisting. If damaged or twisted, the interface seal must be
replaced before re--mating the connectors.

3.18. Strain Relief and Wire Dress
If necessary, wires can be bundled together and supported with cable ties or similar device. Wires must not be
stretched or confined in any way. Therefore, the wires must remain perpendicular to the connector and avoid
an excessively sharp bend radius. The minimum distance for the cable tie, measured from the housing at the
wire end of the connector to the cable tie is shown in Figure 20.

3.19. Repair and Removal
Connectors, contacts, interface seals, wire seals, and cavity plug seals are not repairable. Any damaged or
defective components MUST NOT be used. Terminated contacts or wire seals MUST NOT be re--used by
removing the wire.
Standard de--soldering methods must be used to remove pin headers from the pc board. Removed pin headers
MUST NOT be re--used.
Keying plugs must be removed from the mating face of the connector using pliers.
4. QUALIFICATION
No qualifying support for mini--universal MATE--N--LOK splash--proof sealed connectors was defined at the
time of publication of this document.
5. TOOLING
Tooling part numbers and instructional material packaged with the tooling are shown in Figure 21.
5.1. Hand Tools
Hand tools for manual application of loose--piece contacts are available to cover the full wire size range.
Only CERTI--CRIMP II hand tools (or similar type of tools) can be used to crimp these contacts with wire seals. The
wire seals are not compatible with other types of hand tools.
5.2. Extraction Tool
The extraction tool is used to remove the contacts from the plug housing or the cap housing by releasing the
contact locking lance from the housing without overstressing the contact.
5.3. Insertion Tool
The insertion tool is available for inserting contacts crimped onto small wire sizes or when the wire bundle is
too large for hand insertion.
5.4. Applicators
Applicators are used to crimp strip form contacts onto pre--stripped wire, and provide for high volume, heavy
duty production requirements. The applicator must be installed onto a power unit.

Rev B18 of 20 Tyco Electronics Corporation
5.5. Power Units
Automatic and semi--automatic machines for power assisted application of strip form contacts are available to
cover the full wire size range. These power units provide the force required to drive the applicator for crimping
the contacts. Automatic power units are single--wire lead--making machines that do all the work necessary to
automatically turn the reels of wire and contacts into finished leads while maintaining high production rates.
The machines are designed to be floor--standing. The semi--automatic power unit terminates pre--stripped
wires onto the contacts. It is designed to be bench mounted and provides for medium--volume applications.
