The Centi Line - .075" Contact Spacing
The Cannon Centi connectors are especially
suitable for commercial applications such as
computers, instrumentation, communications
and audio equipment. They are available in D
subminiature size metal shell rectangular, plastic shell rectangular and strip configurations.
All Centi connectors use the reliable twist pin
contact design in a 5 amp version terminated
on .075 (1.91) and .100 (2.54) centers. The
Centi contact is crimp removable, connectors
are available for customer assembly. Standard
crimp and assembly tools are available.
The twist pin contact is recessed within the
insulator housing while the rugged cylindrical
socket is exposed. When the connector halves
are mated, the chamfered sockets guide the
pins into positive alignment. The CentipinTM
contact, now under compression, forms a
multi-point contact with the CentisocketTM to
provide a high degree of reliability.
