Circular Connectors Suit Harsh Vehicle Environments

The Cannon APD series of circular DIN72585 connectors is designed for applications in all types of automotive, transportation and industrial environments, including those subject to extreme shock and vibration. Available in one-, two-,three-, four-, six- and seven-way configurations, this new family also features very low contact resistance to maximise signal integrity.



The one-way APD circular connector can handle up to 245A using a 50mm² wire cross section, while the dual-way style has two cavities that can accommodate 16mm² wire cross section, with a current-carrying capability of 74A.

Two-, three- and four-contact connectors have a maximum current rating of 30A, while six- and seven-way products handle 16A. All members of the APD series feature high-performance composite bodies designed for continuous operation at temperatures between -40°C and +140°C. Essential for the environments in which they are designed to operate, all APD connectors are sealed to IP69K, making them resistant to engine, transmission and brake fluid.

The new family of vehicle connectors is available either with a bayonet coupling for quick, simple fastening, or as a flanged version for increased flexibility. Housings can be colour and key coded, and ITT also offers a value-added harnessing capability.

The APD series is designed for a range of transportation applications such as braking systems, power distribution, battery links, sensor applications, lighting, gear and power steering controls in private, public and industrial vehicles. The APD series is also suitable for a wide variety of industrial, power, hybrid vehicle and sensing applications.
