Connectors for medical apps
Molex Inc. was at the show with its MediSpec Medical Plastic Circular (MPC) Interconnect System. One of its claims to fame is its ability to be autoclaved. The MPC system also employs a stamped-and-formed contact system dubbed LFH which is said to help ensure a reliable electrical interface for applications requiring multiple insertions. The contact interface (pin field) for both the plugs and receptacles are factory-sealed. Besides the D2 (up to 17 contacts) style shown here, Molex also makes a D1 (up to 8 contacts),D3 (up to 35 contacts) and D4 (up to 59 contacts) plus four keying positions and six colors. The Connector System will also accommodate inserts for future applications that include those for fiber optics, RF, power, fluid and air couplings.
