Push-Pull K Series Connector for Ventilator Airflow Control

PC Series Circular Connector Types and Specifications

Selecting the Right Connector for Ventilator Airflow Control Modules

For airflow control modules in ventilators, the push-pull K series (medical grade) is recommended. This connector is designed to meet the stringent demands of medical environments, ensuring reliable performance and patient safety.

Key Specifications and Compliance

The push-pull K series complies with the FDA 21 CFR Part 820 quality standard and holds CE IVDR certification. It is engineered to withstand rigorous hospital protocols, including high-temperature sterilization at 121°C (moist heat) and daily disinfection with 75% alcohol.

Electrical Performance for Signal Integrity

With a contact resistance of less than 5mΩ, this connector ensures stable transmission of airflow pressure signals, maintaining accuracy within ±1mmHg. This precision is critical for ventilator performance and patient monitoring.

Operational Advantages in Clinical Settings

The connector features a blind-mating design, which eliminates the need for visual alignment in the narrow spaces often encountered during procedures. This facilitates quick and reliable module replacement, contributing to a low failure rate of less than 0.05%.

Application Fit and Selection Notes

This connector is suitable for ventilator systems where sterilization compatibility, signal accuracy, and rapid maintenance are priorities. It is not intended for general-purpose industrial applications outside medical device requirements. When selecting, verify the specific pin count and mating interface required by your ventilator module design.
