Connectors withstand temperatures to 800 °C

ITT has developed a series of high-temperature connectors, designated as the VEAM CIR series. The connectors are capable of withstanding a high temperature exposure period of at least 15 minutes at the ISO 834-1 heating curve, where maximum temperature is 800 °C.

Typical applications for these VEAM CIR series connectors include railway systems, transportation interconnects and high-temperature environments where signal integrity is critical.

Featuring a stainless-steel shell and ceramic insulation, the VEAM CIR series connectors are available with 35 size 12 poles at 40 amperes. A silicon-rubber grommet ensures sealing, while contacts with a metallic retention clip provide a high integrity contact that will not release under extreme shock and vibration conditions.

ITT is also developing the CIR series connectors with 40 size 16 poles rated at 36 amperes and 4 size 16 poles.

ITT Interconnect connector family includes the Cannon, VEAM and BIW brands.
