Cable Clamp for MS Connectors

Brand :

MISUMI

Caution

Product Description

[Specifications]·A low-cost type MS cable clamp · By attaching it to the MS connector and tightening the cable, it is possible to reduce the load on the cable end and prevent disconnection.

<<Amazingly Low Price>>
● Check the price first. Reduce load to the cable end and prevents cable disconnection by attaching the product to an MS connector and tightening the cable.
● Can also be used for products from other manufacturers as long as they are connectors compliant with MIL standards.

· If the diameter of bundled discrete wire, or the finishing outer diameter of the cable, is larger than the cable extraction diameter of the clamp, it is advised to remove the built-in bushings or use a larger size than the current one.

Common Specifications

Applied Wire Size and Contact Size

Applicable wire coating strip length is about 1 to 3 mm plus the soldering hole length (L dimension) of the contact. In addition, the L dimension and D dimension are the same for the male connector (pin) and female connector (socket). Also, confirm whether the cable will fit into the internal diameter of the cable clamp when selecting cables.

*1: The rated current is the value of the contact as a single unit when each contact is embedded in a connector. Note that the rated current will not change depending on voltage.
*2: The rated voltage will change depending on contact arrangement rather than on the size of contacts or shells.
*3 The rated voltage may be different with each contact even in the same connector.
*4 Characteristics will change depending on test classification.

Current Capacity Applicable to Entire Connector

The rated current value per contact will vary depending on contact size, but the current capacity which can be applied to the entire connector will vary depending on the total number of cores. Since calculation differs for 14 cores or less and for 15 cores or more, they will be explained separately.

(1) For 14 Cores or Less

The current capacity applicable to the whole connector is calculated by multiplying the rated current value per contact when embedded by the number of cores, and then multiplying it with the reduction ratio in the following figure.

■ Current Reduction Ratio by Number of Cores Table

Total Number of Cores	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10	11	12	13	14
Reduction Ratio (%)	1	0.943	0.886	0.829	0.771	0.714	0.657	0.6	0.543	0.486	0.429	0.371	0.314	0.257

Example 1: For connectors with the same contact size
Rated current per contact x number of cores x reduction ratio = entire connector allowable current
13 A x 2 cores x 0.943 = 24.518 A
(For Arrangement No. 12S-3)
Therefore, 24.518 A can be applied to the whole connector.

Example 2: For connectors with different contact sizes
(A contact rated current x number of A contact cores + B contact rated current x number of B contact cores) x reduction ratio (for total number of cores) = entire connector allowable current
(23 A x 2 cores + 13 A x 7 cores) x 0.543 = 74.391 A
(For Arrangement No. 20-16)
Therefore, 74.391 A can be applied to the whole connector.

(2) For 15 Cores or More

The current capacity applicable to the entire connector is calculated by multiplying the rated current value per contact by the number of cores and then multiplying it by 20%.

Example 1: For connectors with the same contact size
Contact rated current x number of cores x 20% = entire connector allowable current
13 A x 17 cores x 0.2 = 44.2 A
(For Arrangement No. 20-29)
Therefore, 44.2 A can be applied to the whole connector.

Example 2: For connectors with different contact sizes
(A contact rated current x number of A contact cores + B contact rated current x number of B contact cores) x 20% = entire connector allowable current
(23 A x 4 cores + 13 A x 18 cores) x 0.2 = 65.2 A
(For Arrangement No. 28-11)
Therefore, 65.2 A can be applied to the whole connector.
