Disposable Receptacle Backshell In applications where the disposable receptacle is attached directly to a cable or catheter this one piece backshell is available to protect light gauge wire terminations and provide an anchor point for the catheter jacket. These backshells snap into place and may be encapsulated.
Disposable Receptacle Mounting Accessories For applications where the disposable receptacle housing is mounted directly onto an enclosure or hand piece an o-ring seal is available to environmentally secure this interface. A light weight hex nut is also available for mounting this housing to a panel.
Panel-Mount Receptacle Dust Cover The PL-900 Series receptacle dust cover protects the receptacles contact system from dust, moisture, and mechanical stress when the connector pair is disengaged. When secured the dust cover will provide an IP-67 environmental seal. The cover is equipped with a tether for security. Plug Soaking Cap The PL-900 Series Plug Soaking Cap is designed to protect the plug's contact system when a cable assembly is being cleaned or not in use. The soaking cap locks onto the plug providing an IP-67 seal that is ideal for soaking in liquid disinfectants. The soaking cap can be permanently attached to a cable assembly by means of a light weight tether.
