Technical content

The miniature circular connectors series KPTC from ITT Cannon are especially used in the machine and in the automotive industries. They are designed for the usage with crimp contacts which are to be ordered separately. The contacts are packed separately for the termination process. To keep up with the market trends and for logistic reasons ITT Cannon offers zinc / cobalt as an alternative to nickel. For current projects, the nickel finish is still offered. However, zinc / cobalt should be the preferred finish as it features a much higher corrosion resistance.

Acc to specification the connectors are suitable for an operating voltage of 50 V (see product safety information). However, this is only valid when the connectors are free accessible during operation and consequently might be touchable. When connectors will be operated with line voltage, ITT Cannon offers a solution, too. Please consult factory.

Product Safety Information THIS NOTE SHOULD BE READ IN CON-JUNCTION WITH THE PRODUCT DATA SHEET/CATALOGUE. FAILURE TO OB-SERVE THE ADVICE IN THIS INFOR- MATION SHEET AND THE OPERATING CONDITIONS SPECIFIED IN THE PRODUCT DATA SHEET/ CATALOGUE COULD RESULT IN HAZAR-DUOUS SITUATIONS. 1. MATERIAL CONTENT AND PHYSICAL FORM Electrical connectors do not usually contain hazardous materials. They contain conducting and non-conducting materials and can be divided into two groups. a) Printed circuit types and low cost audio types which employ all plastic insulators and casings. b) Rugged, Fire Barrier and High Reliability types with metal casings and either natural rubber, synthetic rubber, plastic or glass insulating materials. Contact materials vary with type of connector and also application and are usually manufactured from either copper, alloys, nickel, alumel, chromel or steel. In special applications, other alloys may be specified. 2. FIRE CHARACTERISTICS AND ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD There is no fire hazard when the connector is correctly wired and used within the specified parameters. Incorrect wiring or assembly of the connector or careless use of metal tools or conductive fluids, or transit damage to any of the component parts may cause electric shock or burns. Live circuits must be broken by separating mated connectors as this may cause arcing, ionisation and burning. Heat dissipation is greater at maximum resistance in a circuit. Hot spots may occur when resistance is raised locally by damage, e.g. cracked or deformed contacts, broken strangs of wire. Local overheating may also result from the use of the incorrect application tools or from poor quality soldering or slack screw terminals. Overheating may occur if the ratings in the Product Data Sheet/ Catalogue are exceeded and can cause breakdown of insulation and hence electric shock. If heating is allowed to continue it intensifies by further increasing the local resistance through loss of temper of spring contacts, formation of oxide film on contacts and wires, and leakage currents through carbonisation of insulation and tracking paths. Fire can then result in the presence of combustible materials and this may release noxious fumes. Overheating may not be visually apparent. Burns may result from touching overheated components. 3. HANDLING Care must be taken to avoid damage to any component parts of electrical connectors during installation and use. Although there are normally no sharp edges, care must be taken when handling certain components to avoid injury to fingers. ITT Cannon manufactures the highest quality products available in the marketplace; however these products are intended to be used in accordance with the specifications in this catalog. Any use or application that deviates from stated operating specifications is not recommended and may be unsafe. No information and data contained in this catalog shall be construed to create any liability on the part of ITT Cannon.

Except for obligations assumed by ITT Cannon under this warranty, ITT Cannon shall not be liable for any loss, damage, cost of r epairs, incidental or consequential damages of any kind, whether or not based on express or implied warranty, contract, negligence or strict liability arising in connection with the design, manufacture, sale, use or r epair of the products. Product availability, prices and delivery dates are exclusively subject to our respective order confirmation form; the same applies to orders based on development samples delivered.

Reprinting this catalog is generally permitted, indicating the source. However, ITT Cannon's prior consent must be obtained in all cases. Cannon is a trademark of ITT Industries, Inc Electrical connectors may be damaged in transit to the customers, and damage may result in creation of hazards. Products should therefore be examined prior to installation/use and rejected if found to be damaged. 4. DISPOSAL Incineration of certain materials may release noxious or even oxid fumes. 5. APPLICATION Connectors with exposed contacts should not be selected for use on the current supply side of an electrical circuit, because an electric shock could result from touching exposed contacts on an unmated connector. Voltages in excess of 30 V ac or 42.5 V dc are potentially hazardous and care should be taken to ensure that such voltages can not be transmitted in any way to exposed metal parts of the connector body. The connector and wiring should be checked, before making live, to have no damage to metal parts of insulators, no solder blobs, loose strands, conducting lubricants, swarf, or any other undersired conducting particles. Insulation resistance should be checked to make certain that no low resistance joints or spurious conducting path are existing between contacts and exposed metal parts of the connector body. Further the contact resistance of the connectors should be measured within the electrical circuit in order to identify high resistances which result in excessive connector heating. Always use the correct application tools as specified in the Data Sheet/Catalogue. Do not permit untrained personnel to wire, assemble or tramper with connectors. For operation voltage please see appropriate national regulations IMPORTANT GENERAL INFORMATION. 1. Air and creepage paths/Operating voltage The admissible operating voltages depend on the individual applications and the valid national and other applicable safety regulations. For this reason the air and creepage path date are only reference values. Observe reduction of air and creepage paths due to PC board and/or harnes- sing. 2. Temperature All information given are temperature limits. The operation temperature depends on the individual application. 3. Other important information Cannon continuously endeavours to improve their products. Therefore, Cannon products may deviate from the description, technical data and shape as shown in this catalogue and data sheets. 4. Harnessing and Assembly Instructions If applicable, our special harnessing and/or assem- bly instruction has to be adhered to. This is provid- ed at request.
