Circular Connectors - Accessories come in many forms, and the980-8666-006 connector is just one of them. This circular connector is typically used in industrial and military applications due to its robust construction and highly reliable operation, making it a superior choice for both indoor and outdoor applications. The 980-8666-006 utilizes the same connection mechanism as other circular connectors, but offers additional features such as a dust seal, solderable contacts, and polarization keys for accurate mating.

The 980-8666-006 has nine-pins, with two of them being male and the rest female. The male pins are designed with a slight angle to the female pins for better contact. The pins are made from copper, and the insulation is comprised of either Teflon or PVC, depending on the application. The solderable contacts allow for a detachable connection which is perfect for applications that require frequent replacements. The contacts can also be plugged into standard 2.54 and 5.08mm headers.

The 980-8666-006 features a locking mechanism to provide secure and reliable connections. The lock includes a flexible ring and a release tab. When the connector is mated, the flexible ring slips over the pins to lock the connector in place. The release tab can be used to disengage the flexible ring from the pins, allowing for easier removal of the connector. The connector also has an isolation sleeve for protection against dust and vibration. The stylish dust seal is compatible with standard MIL-DTL-38999 keyed dust respirators and can be specified in either standard or heavy-duty lengths.

The polarization keys are used to ensure proper mating of the connector. They are molded into the male pins and are designed to accommodate the female housing. This prevents mismatched connections and ensures that the correct polarity is maintained throughout the assembly. The polarization keys can be customized to meet specific mating configurations, making the 980-8666-006 perfect for applications where high levels of mating accuracy are required.

The 980-8666-006 offers superior performance for military and industrial applications. It is rated to IP67, so it can be used in harsh environments. The locking mechanism and flexible dust seal offer reliable connections in a variety of conditions. The solderable contacts and polarization keys ensure accuratemating, making the 980-8666-006 the perfect choice for secure and reliable performance.
