Deutsch DRB series connectors Introduction

 

The Deutsch DRB series connectors are designed to withstand challenging environments with moisture, dirt, and rough terrain that could potentially damage electrical connections. These high-density pin-count rectangular connectors feature a high-performance thermoplastic body with a bulkhead-mounted flange for a secure environmental seal. With their resistance to shock, vibration, and high temperatures, the DRB series connectors are an excellent choice for firewall-mounted pass-through applications.

The DRB Series connectors are durable connectors that are perfect for bulkhead applications. They can accommodate various wire gauges and have high pin counts, including 48, 60, 102, and 128 cavities. To enhance design flexibility, the DRB Series offers multiple mounting flange options and wire arrangements. It is well-suited for use in on and off-highway applications, marine environments, industrial settings, and agriculture markets even in harsh conditions.
