The recommended torque value for the screw terminals is 0.5-1.5 Nm (4.4-13.3 in-lbs). It's essential to follow this range to ensure reliable connections and prevent damage to the connector.
Yes, the 172138-2 connector is designed to withstand vibrations and is suitable for use in applications with moderate to high vibration levels. However, it's essential to follow proper mounting and installation procedures to ensure the connector remains secure.
The operating temperature range for the 172138-2 connector is -40°C to 125°C (-40°F to 257°F). It's essential to ensure the connector is used within this range to maintain its performance and reliability.
The 172138-2 connector has a sealed design that provides some level of protection against moisture and contaminants. However, it's not designed for use in extremely harsh environments. If you need a connector for use in such environments, consider using a connector with a higher IP rating or specialized coatings.
While the 172138-2 connector is designed for use with AWG 20-24 wires, it's possible to use it with other wire sizes. However, you may need to use additional wire preparation or specialized tools to ensure reliable connections. Consult with a TE Connectivity representative or a qualified engineer for guidance on using this connector with non-standard wire sizes.
