Introduction to KPSE /KPT /KPTC
ITT Cannon's miniature circular connector series KPT, KPSE and KPTC
conform to meet the performance specification to MIL-C-26482 with a
positive three point bayonet coupling, five-keyway polarization and high
insert arrangement contact density.
Purpose
• General purpose solder connectors (KPT)
– Our solution for small / prototype quantities
using solder type contacts
• High versatility general purpose versions using
crimp or solder contacts (KPTC)
– Our commercial version for higher volume production
with option for solder contacts
• High performance crimp connectors (KPSE)
– Our solution for volume production optimized for fast
assembly featuring “clip-in” contact & insulator design
• Military approved versions according to VG95328
or MIL-C-26482
The broad product range provides the most complete family
of connectors conforming to VG95328 and MIL-C-26482
specifications.
Highlights
• All connectors conforming to the above mentioned standards
are fully intermateable and accept a wide range of interchange-
able accessories.
• Design modifications can be achieved easily and a lower
cost using Cannons KPSE / KPT or KPTC versions
• VG95328 versions are based on MIL-C-26482 but comply
to ECC directives and offer additional shielded versions
• KPTC is based on MIL-C-26482 but offers a greater versatility
in contacts, backshells and plating options
• “Blue Generation” RoHS compliant, 500 hours salt spray and
conductive plating is offered next to the standard Nickel,
Zinc Cobalt or Cadmium platings.

Operating voltage
(with scoop proof connectors operating voltages acc. to MIL-C-26482 and VG95328 are permitted)
When the connectors in this catalogue are used for voltages
greater than 50 Volts and have touchable conductive shell parts
they must be used in accordance with the safety
regulations DIN VDE Part 140; IEC 60364-4-41. This regulation
basically dictates that the power source should be turned off
before any mating and unmating of the connector. This regula-
tion does not provide protection against electrical shock when
mating and unmating the connectors in the live condition.
