Harsh Environment Connectors
If you’re being asked to design products to perform under tough conditions, then you need reliable connector technologies that can withstand the punishment. That’s why IDI connectors and interconnect systems are showing up in military, aerospace, industrial and medical applications where conventional connectors just aren’t cutting it. IDI uses the spring probe technology we’ve advanced for over 30 years. IDI custom connectors and interconnect systems are “ruggedized” to assure contact - at every contact - while delivering exceptional performance benefits in extremely harsh environments where high performance and relibility are mandatory.
Solderless Battery Connector
IDI’s battery contacts provide trustworthy connections that power everything from the world’s top military radios to portable power tools. This connector features:
• Rugged metal bayonet shell provides ground connection between ground pin and housing
• Raised ground probe provides First Mate/Last Break
• Wiping engagement ensures clean mate
• Double ended probes provide rapid assembly
by compression mounting to pads on the PCB
• Ingress protection to IP68 and MIL-STD-810F
