miniature cylindrical connectors Amphenol SPB-16-26PS suitable for instrumentation and communications equipment
Amphenol Miniature Cylindrical Connectors - PT, SP, MS/PT Series
Amphenol Miniature Cylindrical Connectors, including the PT, SP, and MS/PT series, are designed for general duty and environmental applications in both industrial and military markets. These connectors offer twice the number of contacts in half the size of standard connectors, providing significant design flexibility. They are suitable for applications such as instrumentation, monitoring equipment, machine tool automation, communications, geophysical exploration, industrial controls and robotics, oil and petrochemical industries, rail/mass transit, and military/aerospace sectors. Key features include environmental sealing achieved through grommet and clamp design, an operating temperature range of 55C to +125C, and operating voltages up to 1000 VAC (RMS) at sea level. Contacts are machined from a low-loss copper alloy and gold-plated for corrosion resistance and extended shelf life. The connectors utilize resilient inserts for high dielectric strength and moisture barrier properties, with a variety of shell finishes and back-end accessories available.
