Description of equipment
The Amphe-EX Connectors each comprise a metallic bodied plug or receptacle shell, to form in-line cable connections. Externally
the main body is fitted with a suitably certified cable gland. Internally the main bodies each contain an insulator insert fitted with
solder type contact pins or sockets. The plug and receptacle shells together form an in-line connector. When connected together
they form a spigotted flamepath and are mechanically interlocked by means of a threaded nut retained by a grub screw.
Additionally, the receptacle connector is available in a bulkhead mounted version that contains an externally threaded flamepath
for mounting to certified EX enclosures with suitable internal mating thread. This variety must be internally potted, as described
within this document.
The range comprises seven body (form) sizes each with a number of pin/socket size combinations between 6 and 79 contacts. The
connector shell size, pin configuration and rating are reflected in the individual type designations.
Design Options
Alternative association with flameproof blanking caps on connectors fitted with energized contact sleeves.
Alternative association with environmental blanking caps on connectors with non-energized contact pins.
Alternative keying options.
Alternative pin or sleeve contacts in either the plug or receptacle bodies
