Melo-D series connectors are professional quality connectors
recommended for use in sheltered, non-corrosive indoor or out-
door environments having normal ventilation, but without temper-
ature or humidity controls. These fixed contact connectors meet
the dimensional and performance requirements of IEC 60807-2,
Performance Level Two.
Melo-D series connectors utilize precision machined contacts
which are fixed within the connector body. The female contact is
an open entry design contact, precision machined of high tensile
phosphor bronze.
Six standard connector variants are offered in arrangements of 9,
15, 25, 29, 37 and 50 contacts. Each Melo-D connector variant is
available with contact terminations for solder cup, wrap post, and
straight and right angle (90°) printed board mount terminations featur-
ing a choice of three printed board footprints. Melo-D series connec-
tors are mateable and compatible with all D-subminiature connectors
conforming to IEC 60807-2, IEC 60807-3 and MIL-DTL-24308.
A wide assortment of printed board mounting hardware, cable
support hoods and locking systems is available from stock.
