FCI ESD squib integrates grounding function
FCI
AK2+ ESD squib
FCI has developed the AK2+ ESD (Electro Static Discharge) squib, said to be the first commercially available airbag connector to integrate the grounding function within the squib connector itself.
'The new AK2+ ESD connector solution is the result of a partnership with VW/Audi and is due to be employed for the first time in a VW model scheduled for launch in early summer 2010,' said Marcus Wierer, director global sales and marketing covering the FCI MVL Business Line SRS/High End Cable Assemblies.
The AK2+ ESD squib eliminates potential misfiring caused by electrostatic discharge with completely integrated grounding.
The connector retains full compatibility with existing standards (AK, USCAR, ISO 19072-1), as well as FCI's mate assist function, CPA (Connector Position Assurance).
