Use of Connectors with Respect to Polarity
(to prevent mis-insertion of connectors)
Polarization of SUMICON 1600 series can be achieved
by contact arrangement. The crimp type contacts are
designed to float a little, so that the use of a Polarizing
Key is recommended in order to ensure positive polar-
izatiom.
In Case of 8, 12 and 16 contact
1. When crimp types are used in both the male and
female, do not fill all cavities with contacts. Use
Polarizing Key at minimum 2 cavities of Socket
housing as shown below and do not fill pin con-
tacts at the corresponding cavities of male hous-
ing.
2. When male crimp type is used in combination with
solder or wire wrap female type, the connector
coupling shall be done corefully not to couple in
reverse position. Couplimg shall be made by
matching of traiangle marks on connector inserts.
In case of Multi Pin Type more than 20 contact
1. SUMICON 1600 series are naturally polarized in all
cavities filled with contacts. When all cavities are
not filled, Polarizing Keys shall be inserted in
vacant cavities to the minimum for preventing
reverse coupling. But when Top Touch Lock Plug
Shell is used, Polarizing Keys are not necessary
because Plug Shell has polarized mechanism.
2. When male crimp type is used with some vacant
cavities in combination with solder or wire wrap
female type, Top Touch Lock Plug Shell is recom-
mended.
