Heavy-duty Connector Components For Industrial Applications

The heavy duty waterproof electrical connectors consists of four main parts: (1) the hood, which is the external plug cover for the heavy duty connector, including specific heavy duty electrical connectors Metric, Pg or NPT threads and cable glands; (2) the heavy duty power connectors housing, which is the assembly that mounts to the panel and heavy duty connector 24 pin equipment; and two inserts, which are the parts into which the cables are assembled – typically the (3) male insert is assembled into the hood and the (4) female insert is assembled into the 16 pin heavy duty connector housing. The threads on the hood should be left unpainted to ensure a good ground connection when assembled with the 24 pin heavy duty connector cable gland.
