DTF13 Series Connector

The DTF15 Series Connector can be classified into different types based on several factors, such as shell style and the number of contacts:

1. **Straight Receptacle Type**: For example, the DTF15-12PA is a straight receptacle connector in the DTF15 series. It has 12 contacts and is often used in automotive and other related applications where a straight connection is required.

2. **Right Angle Receptacle Type**: This type of connector has a right-angle shape, which is suitable for applications where the connection needs to be at an angle to save space or meet specific installation requirements within a limited space.

3. **Different Contact Numbers**: There are variants with different numbers of contacts to meet various connection needs. For instance, there could be connectors with fewer or more contacts depending on the specific requirements of the electrical system they are used in.

DTF13 Series connector wedgelocks are made of rugged glass filled PBT.

No unlocking or unmating and exhibits no mechanical or physical damage after sinusoidal vibration levels of 20 G’s at 10 to 2000 Hz in each of the three mutually perpendicular planes. No electrical discontinuities longer than 1 microsecond.
