Amphenol ^® PC-SE, PC-CE
threaded coupling and crimp termination
Amphenol^® PC-SE Series threaded coupling miniature cylindri-
cal connectors incorporate crimp contacts in a spring tower
retention system.
Amphenol^® PC-CE Series threaded coupling miniature cylindri-
cal connectors incorporate crimp contacts in a nylon wafer
retention system to maintain contact position.
The PC double stub threaded coupling system cannot be cross
threaded, and is mechanically assisted while engaging and dis-
engaging.
Shell components are aluminum. Bright cadmium plating to QQ-P-
416 with a clear chromate after-treatment provides a golden colored
conductive finish. Single key/keyway polarization represents maxi-
mum simplicity in a design proven in millions of AN connectors.
Both pins and sockets are machined from a copper alloy and are gold
plated. This gold plating eliminates contact corrosion and offers an
indefinite shelf life. Socket contacts for these series are a closed entry
design.
Both the insert and main joint gasket are molded from resilient neo-
prene. This provides excellent moisture sealing at the gasket and
superior electrical insulation of the contacts in the insert.
The PC-SE and PC-CE are only intermateable and intermountable
within the PC threaded coupling series.
Shell style drawing pages are not shown in this catalog for the PC-SE
and PC-CE styles. If connector drawings are needed please contact
Amphenol for assistance. Shell styles are currently available in these
series as follows:
• PC00-SE, wall mounting receptacle
• PC01-SE, cable connecting receptacle
• PC02-SE, box mounting receptacle
• PC06-SE, straight plug
• PC08-SE, 90 degree plug
• PC06-CE straight plug (will mate with PC-SE receptacles and PC
solder receptacles)
Please contact Amphenol for complete information, as there may be
limitations in shell sizes within the PC-SE and PC-CE series.
Refer to pages 4-11 for insert arrangement availability.
* This connector style is sometimes referred to as a cable connecting “plug”.
It does, however, mate with either a straight or 90 degree plug.
