LPT02SE-18-5PW(023)(LC)

Overview

The LPT02SE-18-5PW(023)(LC) is a standard circular connector receptacle manufactured by Amphenol Industrial. It features a size 18 shell with 5 positions configured for pin contacts. The unit utilizes a crimp termination method and includes an LC (Lead-Free) designation, indicating compliance with lead-free material requirements. This component is part of the LPT series, which is based on MIL-C-26482 Series I specifications.

Feature Summary

• Constructed with a robust aluminum alloy housing designed for durability in general industrial and harsh environments.
• Features a crimp termination interface to ensure secure electrical connections for specified wire gauges.
• Incorporates a lead-free construction compliant with environmental directives such as RoHS.

Applications

• General industrial equipment requiring reliable signal or power transmission
• Harsh environment applications utilizing MIL-C-26482 Series I form factors
• Panel mount installations for circular connector systems

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix codes against official datasheets to confirm plating, seal, and orientation details. Ensure compatibility with mating plugs regarding shell size and contact arrangement. Confirm that the lead-free designation meets current project regulatory requirements. Cross-reference the manufacturer part number with authorized distributor catalogs to validate authenticity and current availability status.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a panel-mount receptacle with five pin positions is required within a MIL-C-26482 Series I compatible system. Consider the aluminum housing weight reduction benefits over traditional steel shells. Verify that the crimp termination type aligns with available assembly tools and wire gauge specifications. Ensure the environmental sealing requirements match the application's exposure conditions.

Part Context

This part belongs to the LPT (Lean PT) series, an evolution of the original PT series connectors. The LPT line maintains the performance standards of MIL-C-26482 Series I while offering reduced weight through aluminum construction. It serves as a drop-in replacement for legacy PT series components in many designs, providing modernized manufacturing processes without sacrificing ruggedness.

Replacement Considerations

Compatible replacements include the legacy PT02SE-18-5PW(023) and other LPT series variants with matching shell sizes and contact counts. Verify that substitute parts maintain the same crimp termination style and lead-free certification. Ensure mating interfaces remain consistent across the connection pair.
