4.1 General
A pair of connectors comprises:
— a male housing fitted with female crimp contacts (code F);
— a female housing fitted with male crimp contacts and having an interfacial seal which provides sealing
at each contact when the connectors are mated (code M).
These housings are fitted with polarizing systems permitting 36 combinations.
They are able to take a cable clamp and comprise a locking device at each end.
There are two types of connectors:
— sealed, grommet provided for sealing of cables at the rear (code E);
— non-sealed, grommet provided for non abrasion of cables at the rear (code D).
4.2 Male and female housings
There is one size of housing and twelve contact arrangements as shown in Table 1.
According to also Figures 2 to Figure 13.
