Check the assembled state and the exact mating family
- Waterproof connector
The rating belongs to the defined mating and cable-entry state. Check caps, seals, cable range and assembly instructions.
- OvermoldingThis term
Molded material surrounds the termination and transition. Its material bond, support and sealing depend on the specified process.
- Mating cycle
A cycle uses the defined mating and unmating sequence. Assess wear and performance after the specified number and conditions.
- PV connector
Use the specified PV mating pair and assembly tooling. A connector without load-breaking capability is not a DC disconnector.
- MC4 connector
MC4 identifies Stäubli connector products. Confirm the exact permitted mating types rather than assuming all similar PV connectors are compatible.
Connector sealing acts at the mating and cable interfaces. Overmolding, repeated mating and PV connector family identity each need separate checks for the intended complete assembly.
Generic connector geometry without a rated ingress value. The MC4 panel identifies a Stäubli product family, not a universal description of any similar-looking PV connector.
