DCMV8H8PYK87

The DCMV8H8PYK87 D-Sub Connector is an instrumentation grade, high durability signal connector commonly used in industrial, military, and medical applications. It is a cost-effective, reliable solution for signal connections in tight spaces or hostile environments. This connector utilizes a snap-lock mechanism to ensure positive retention, and it is constructed of die-cast zinc alloy for superior strength and corrosion resistance.The DCMV8H8PYK87 D-Sub Connector contains two mating halves – a male plug and a female receptacle – which must be connected in order to create a signal connection. The male plug features 8 pins molded into the shell, as well as mounting spacers and strain relief features. The female receptacle is designed for mounting on a mating surface and features 8 gold-plated contacts compatible for use with wire/cable types up to 16 AWG. The contacts are held securely in place with a snap-lock retention mechanism, ensuring a reliable connection even in high vibration environments.The DCMV8H8PYK87 D-Sub Connector is most often used in industrial process instrumentation and digital communication systems, in applications such as motor control and opto-electronic circuits. Since it is corrosion-resistant, it is also suitable for harsh and outdoor-exposed applications such as military or medical equipment. Due to its low cost and reliable performance, the DCMV8H8PYK87 D-Sub Connector is a popular choice for engineers designing systems in a range of industries.The DCMV8H8PYK87 D-Sub Connector is also designed for easy installation, as it can be connected in a snap–literally. The snap-lock mechanism simply slides onto the mating components, and a spring-loaded lock tab on the male plug ensures a secure connection. The connector also requires minimal maintenance, as the spring-loaded lock tab does not require any maintenance or lubrication, and cleaning can be quickly done with a soft, lint-free cloth.The DCMV8H8PYK87 D-Sub Connector is a versatile, reliable, low-cost option for applications ranging from industrial to medical. It is easy to install, maintenance-free, and designed for superior durability in harsh conditions. With 8 pins, it offers more connection points for a range of applications, and its corrosion-resistant construction ensures a reliable connection for many years to come.
