ITT Interconnect Solutions has introduced a connector series designed for sensor applications in harsh environments, such as engine compartments of heavy diesel units.

New Metr1x connectors can be placed directly on a diesel engine.

The connectors provide EMI shielding and offer resistance against corrosion, vibration, shock, motor oils and salt spray (according to DIN EN 60068).

Available in two-, three- or four-way socket-and-pin format, the new devices benefit from a crimped stainless-steel housing with different possible variations, sealing up to IP69K (only with a mated pair of Metr1x connectors), a mating face according to M12 standard, gold-plated CGK size-20 crimp contacts and secondary locking.

Further technical details of Metr1x connectors include an operating temperature range from -40C up to +150C, a flammability rating according to UL94-V0 standard, a current rating of 4A and a voltage rating of 100V DC.
