The **JN2MS10SLK-R** is a high-performance, small-size circular connector developed by **JAE (Japan Aviation Electronics)**. It is part of the JN2 series, which is specifically designed for industrial applications requiring waterproof capabilities and high vibration resistance. ### 1. Technical Specifications The following table summarizes the key electrical and mechanical characteristics of the JN2MS10SLK-R: | Feature | Specification | | :--- | :--- | | **Connector Type** | Plug (Straight) | | **Number of Positions** | 10 Pins | | **Rated Current** | 3A per contact | | **Rated Voltage** | 200 VAC | | **Waterproof Rating** | IP67 (when mated) | | **Termination Method** | Solder (represented by the 'S' in the part number) | | **Shell Material** | Synthetic Resin (High-strength plastic) | | **Coupling Mechanism** | One-touch push-twist lock | --- ### 2. Part Number Breakdown Understanding the nomenclature helps identify the specific features of this component: * **JN2:** Series identifier (Reinforced version of JN1). * **M:** Shell size (Medium). * **S:** Connector shape (Straight Plug). * **10:** Number of contacts (10 positions). * **S:** Termination style (Solder). * **L:** Contact gender (Socket/Female contacts). * **K:** Keying/Polarization code. * **R:** Modification code (Indicates RoHS compliance or specific revision). --- ### 3. Key Electronic & Design Features #### A. One-Touch Locking Mechanism The JN2MS10SLK-R features a "push-on" and "twist-off" mechanism. This allows for quick mating in tight spaces where traditional screw-thread connectors would be difficult to operate. #### B. Robust Waterproofing When mated with its corresponding receptacle, the unit achieves an **IP67 rating**. This makes it suitable for electronic systems exposed to dust, moisture, or temporary immersion in water. #### C. Vibration Resistance Unlike standard consumer connectors, the JN2 series is reinforced with metal components in the locking mechanism to ensure electrical continuity even in environments with heavy mechanical vibration (e.g., industrial robotics or motors). #### D. Grounding Design In many configurations of the 10-pin model, one pin is specifically designed to be a "First-to-make, Last-to-break" ground contact, which protects sensitive electronic circuits from static or surge during the connection process. --- ### 4. Common Applications * **Industrial Automation:** Used for sensors, actuators, and control lines. * **Robotics:** Ideal for joint wiring due to its compact size and secure lock. * **Medical Equipment:** Used in diagnostic devices requiring reliable, easy-to-clean interfaces. * **Communication Devices:** Outdoor wireless equipment requiring weather sealing.
