High-performance circular connectors for demanding environments

Weald's LMJ series of high-reliability, cost-competitive screw-coupling circular connectors is now available from Lane Electronics. Designed to meet the requirements of MIL-C-5015, the IP67 rated circular connectors target defence, transportation and demanding industrial applications. They are available with aluminium alloy shells in 13 sizes and 10 shell styles. LMJ circular connectors use a threaded coupling, a neoprene insert and utilize as standard, silver-plated, non-removable, solder contacts and offer an operating temperature range of -55C to +125C. Crimp and PCB tail contacts are available with between 1 and 104 solder or crimp contacts. With a rated voltage range of 250 to 4200VDC and 200 to 3000VAC, maximum current capability is from 10 to 150A depending on size. The connectors are capable of a minimum of 500 mating cycles. LMJ connectors are available in various finishes, including RoHS-compliant and cadmium-free types, and can be supplied with PG cable gland fittings and 360 degree EMC screen termination.
