Molex releases line of sealed circular connectors

XRC Sealed Plugs and Receptacles
Molex has developed the XRC (Extra Rugged Circular) sealed plugs and receptacles for the heavy-equipment industry.
These rugged circular connectors have a standard 18 size shell and are ideal for heavy-duty applications such as in trucks, buses and agricultural markets.
XRC plugs and receptacles protect against the ingress of dust, water and other contaminants to maintain the integrity of the mated pair.
The plugs feature a quick-disconnect bayonet latch to reduce installation and service time while ensuring accurate mating depth.
The XRC features a grommet retainer with a lip for compatibility with back shell and over-moulded applications.
A large polarising key-indicator aids visual alignment to facilitate easier mating.
The simple crimp-and-poke technology does not require terminal alignment when installing crimped wires.
Enlarged imprinting on the wire seals identifies each circuit.
XRC plugs and receptacles are available in standard and reverse gender.
These connectors can be used for in-line or panel-mount applications.
The XRC plugs meet IP67 standards.
