Power Connectors & Interconnection Systems
AMP-DUAC UPC Connectors
The latest addition to the
AMP-DUAC product family
is the AMP-DUAC UPC
connector. The UPC con-
nector offers much higher
pin counts and a variety of
product improvements to
make the connector more
reliable and easier to use.
The UPC connector uses
the original industry proven
dual-action contact design
along with very high con-
ductivity copper alloys to
improve the current
carrying capacity.
The first noticeable differ-
ence of the UPC connector
is the large pin count. With
either 48 or 66 positions,
the housing can serve as a
common mating I/O point
where multiple low current
power connector cables are
combined into one interface.
Other connectors would
yield an excessive mating
force when mating this
number of wires, however,
the low mating force of the
AMP-DUAC / UPC connec-
tor allows up to 66 wires to
be mated with less than a
20 lb mating force.
Dimensions are shown for
reference purposes only.
Specifications subject
to change.
The next key improvement
is the use of molded-in
guide pins. The guide pins
make the mating process
very easy and provide a
visual polarization of the
connector. The housings
mate together easily.
The use of two locking
latches provides a more
secure connection and the
screw-mounts for the panel
mounted plug provide better
retention than plastic
latches.
Finally, the free-hanging
receptacle uses the popular
“Positive Lock” device to
confirm all the contacts are
fully seated. The “positive
locks” are also referred to
as “terminal position assur-
ance”. If any one of the
contacts is not properly/
completely installed into the
housing, then the “Positive
Lock” can not be installed.
This feature eliminates the
common concern of opera-
tor fatigue and the resulting
contact back-out which
occurs when a contact is
not properly seated.
