SD16/SP16 Robust Flange Connector Dimensions and Materials
LD16/SP16 Flange Connector Overview
This drawing illustrates the LD16/SP16 flange connector, including its dimensions, specifications, and materials. It is a panel-mount, flange-style circular connector designed for industrial equipment where a secure, bulkhead-mounted interface is required. The flange mounting method provides a stable mechanical anchor for cable-to-panel or cable-to-cable connections in machinery, packaging lines, and automation systems.
Key Selection Criteria
When evaluating the LD16/SP16 flange connector for your application, consider the following decision points:
-
Mounting interface: The flange design is intended for panel or bulkhead mounting. Confirm the panel cutout dimensions and flange hole pattern against your enclosure before specifying.
-
Mating series: This flange connector is part of the LD16/SP16 series. Verify that the mating plug or socket is from the same series to ensure correct interface and keying.
-
Contact configuration: Confirm the required pin count and contact layout for your circuit. The drawing provides dimensional and material details that support this verification.
-
Environmental fit: Review the material specifications and any IP rating or temperature limits shown in the drawing against your operating environment.
-
Termination method: Check whether the connector is supplied with solder, crimp, or screw terminals, and confirm the acceptable cable range for your wire gauge.
Dimensional and Material Details
The drawing provides the physical envelope of the LD16/SP16 flange connector, including overall length, flange dimensions, and mounting hole positions. These values are essential for mechanical integration into your panel design. Material specifications for the housing, contacts, and any sealing elements are also indicated, supporting your assessment of corrosion resistance and durability in the intended environment.
Application Boundaries
This flange connector is suitable for fixed installations where the connector remains mounted to a panel or enclosure. It is not designed for repeated field disconnection under load or for applications requiring a free-hanging cable connector. For applications that require a cable-mounted counterpart, refer to the matching LD16/SP16 plug or socket in the same series.
