HIGH-DENSITY ZIF CONNECTORS

ITT Cannon’s DL connector family is a versatile, high-density zero insertion force (ZIF) connector series with up to 260 contacts in plastic body connectors and up to 408 contacts in the EMI/RFI shielded metal body connectors.

These ITT Cannon ZIF connectors have a minimum rated life of 10,000 mating cycles and are ideal for medical imaging, test & measurement equipment, entertainment equipment, or any application that requires high mating cycles and high performance in multiple-wire power and signal connectors. ITT Cannon ZIF connectors have a unique latching design that allows for configurations up to 360-way to be mated and unmated in less than two seconds and requires no sliding force. For more details on ITT Cannon ZIF connectors, please see the product specifications below.

 

 

Features

  • True Zero Insertion Force (ZIF) Connectors
    There is no build up of mating force typically associated with high pin count style connectors, so mating and un-mating is as easy as twisting a handle.
  • Long Mating Life
    10,000 matings minimum allows these connectors to be used in testing and burn in applications.
  • High Pin Count
    DL series offers 60, 96, 156, 260, 360 or 408 contacts per standard connector. Need more, custom contact configurations and housing are available.
  • Wide Selection of Terminations
    Crimp, printed circuit, square post and solder buss style contacts give you maximum flexibility to wire your connectors.
  • New Nickel-Plated Aluminum Housings
    The DLM1/2/3 (60, 96 & 156 pin) versions are now available in a strong metal shell, fully EMI/RFI shielded version that can mate with the standard plastic housing version. This allows for easy upgrade to a shielded version without sacrificing intermatability of units already in the field.
  • Contact Wiping
    During mating, the contacts wipe lightly together, which helps clean the contact mating area and assures low contact resistance needed for digital or low current applications.

Note
The Ambient Temperature Curves shown represent the rated current carrying capacity of the Cannon DL1/2/3/4, DLM1/2/3, and DLD1/2 electrical connectors, derated to 80% of the value recorded using the methods specified by International Electro-Technical Commission Document 48 (1975). Current was applied to the total connector (all contacts) in one-half ampere increments and maintained at each current level until thermal stability was achieved. A thermocouple inserted into the “hottest area” of each connector then measured the connector temperature at the same time that an ambient temperature reading was taken. The difference between the two measured values is the heat rise or self-heating created solely by the current flow; this temperature rise for the current level was deducted from the insulator material rated temperature. These values were then derated to 80% to obtain the curves shown.
