RP17-PC-121

RP17-PC-121 circular connectors are characterized by a robust and highly reliable design and cover several application fields. These connector series feature an especially high locking force for a secure mating. They are commonly used in the field of military and aerospace, as they satisfy the most rigorous requirements in terms of vibration, shock and temperature. In addition, they can be found in applications such as onshore and offshore installations, railway and subways, oil & gas platforms and military ground vehicles.

The connector series offers both solder and crimp termination. They are both characterized by high current and voltage capabilities, making them suitable for high power applications. The plug and receptacle have a number code and employ a fully isolated shell with a bayonet locking system. They also feature keying and polarization to assure correct mating.

RP17-PC-121 connectors feature a large number of pins, ranging from 4 to 52. In addition, the connector series have two alternative polarizations for low voltage applications. They also provide shielding against electromagnetic radiation. They are equipped with a stainless steel protection which ensures that they can resist harsh environment and a significant number of mating cycles.

The working principle of RP17-PC-121 connectors is based on the transfer of electrical power or signals from one device to another. The plug and receptacle are coupled together and contacts are established between them. The electrical energy travels along the connector from the plug to the receptacle with a minimal amount of attenuation.

The plugs contacts, including both male and female contacts, are made of a special alloy which makes them highly reliable and wear- resistant. In addition, the contacts feature a precision engineered profile which is advantageous for a secure and tight contact between plug and receptacle. The contacts also provide excellent electrical performance in connection with high current carrying performance and low resistance.

The receptacle pin contacts are made of the same high-grade alloy as the plugs. They also have a precisely engineered profile, which allow a tight connection with the plugs. In addition, the pin contacts have a high vibration and shock resistance to ensure that the stored signals remain stable under most applications.

RP17-PC-121 circular connectors are specifically designed to offer secure and reliable connections in a wide range of applications. They feature a robust construction and excellent performance in terms of current carrying, vibration and shock resistance. In addition, they are available with several contact configurations and offer a wide range of shielding and keying options.
