1687891 Application Field and Working Principle

The 1687891, part of Amphenol’s Heavy Duty Connector range of electronic products, is an insert designed primarily for harsh environments. It offers reliable performance by providing a robust sealing and superior electrical connection that allows for high voltage and power. The heavy-duty insert is an ideal choice for applications in harsh environments such as agriculture, construction, marine, and mining.

The 1687891 is a quick connect terminal which consists of a female part and an insert. The insert is composed of two elements; the contact body and the contact pin. The contact body is the part used to secure the contact pin in the block assembly, while the contact pin is the ferrule which is connected to the stranded conductor. The contact pin is crimped and sealed onto the conductor by the connection tool.

The 1687891 utilises the innovative Power Connector System developed by Amphenol. This system uses a combination of materials and technologies to ensure superior reliability of the connection. The combination of these technologies and the inclusion of a seal between the mounting and the contacts provides robust and corrosion-resistant contact points in harsh environmental conditions.

The Power Connector System features a unique ‘snap-in’ connector housing ensuring that no additional components are needed for assembly. This does away with the need for soldering and makes assembly quick and easy. The connector system is also designed with a solid connection in mind, as the contact pins are self-retaining and the connection will own in the same position for years, regardless of vibrations or movement.

The 1687891 insert is a great choice for harsh environment applications as it has a robust and reliable construction with a superior electrical and mechanical connection. The Power Connector System provides a secure connection with superior corrosion resistance for years of operation. The snap-in assembly makes the connector easy to install, allowing for quick and efficient assembly.
