High-density multi-pole plastic connector with patented internal latching system

LEMO’s latest SP Series high-density multi-pole plastic connectors are now available through Farnell element14. The new range of UL recognized connectors feature a novel patented internal latching system which provides additional protection for the latches, further strengthening an already tough plastic circular connector Based on the well-established Redel 1P range of connectors which are widely used in medical applications, the re-arrangement of latches also provides extra space to permit a significant increase in the number of contacts by the use of a rectangular insert from a maximum of 14 contacts to 22 contacts all 1.2A continuous rated. Other benefits include three keys for ease of mating, particularly blind mating, ease of termination due to the linear pin arrangement of contacts extensive resistance to sterilisation and identical panel cut-out as the standard Redel 1P range.
