TX40AC00-2214

Circular Connectors - Backshells and Cable Clamps

The TX40AC00-2214 is a circular backshell connector, designed for use in a wide range of electrical applications. It is ideal for applications that require high performance in harsh environments, as it is rated to IP67 ingress protection and operates in temperatures from -40 to +125 degrees Celsius. The connector is made up of two halves – the front half with the electrical contacts, and the back half containing the backshell, which provides mechanical and environmental protection. The backshell is also designed to protect the wires from abrasion and wear when in contact with other components.

The TX40AC00-2214 is a unionized, push-fit connector system. It features a 45 degree backshell angle, which ensures that the electrical interface is flush with the backshell before mating. It also features keyed mating, which ensures that the correct connector is installed in a given application. The connector is designed to accept 10mm to 38mm cables and has a maximum overmolding depth of 40mm. It has an operating voltage of 600V and a current rating of 10A, making it suitable for a variety of uses, from industrial to aerospace applications.

The working principle of the TX40AC00-2214 is straightforward. The cable is inserted into the connector body and the corresponding contacts are pushed together, forming a complete circuit. The contacts are secured by a locking mechanism, which is designed to keep them in place while in use. The seal of the backshell helps to ensure that the connection is waterproof, dustproof and shockproof.

In conclusion, the TX40AC00-2214 is a rugged and reliable circular backshell connector. It is designed to provide a waterproof, dustproof and shockproof connection in a wide range of applications. Its push-fit design and keyed mating ensures an easy, reliable installation. Its high voltage and current ratings make it suitable for a variety of industrial and aerospace applications. The connector is also rated to IP67, making it a great choice for harsh environmental applications.
