Molex: MXP120™ Sealed Connector System

Automotive and commercial vehicle makers face tighter space requirements for safety-restraint, body electronics and powertrain applications. The MXP120™ Sealed Connector System provides up to 13.0 A power in a compact package size that meets USCAR specifications. The use of 1.20 mm terminals minimizes the connector interface and connector package size versus larger 1.50 mm terminals while offering more current carrying capacity and robustness in assembly than is possible with the use of 0.64mm terminal systems.

Features

•  Versatile sealed connection system using space-saving 1.20 mm terminals on 4.00 mm pitch
•  Single wire seal (SWS) connection system with robust perimeter seal
•  Reduced package size when compared to existing 1.50 mm connection systems
•  Accommodates wire gauges up to 1.00 mm²
•  Compatible with AK and USCAR interfaces; designed using worldwide AK cavity definition
•  Female receptacles feature medium or long shrouds for 1-by-4 circuit and above (short shrouds for below 4-circuit)
•  Female receptacles with Independent Secondary Locking (ISL) Male blade connectors with Primary Lock Reinforcement (PLR)
•  Female receptacles feature integral locking-latch with bridge protection and audible click
