1986714-2 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What is the recommended torque value for the screw terminals?
  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.
• Can I use this connector in high-vibration applications?
  Yes, the 1986714-2 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.
• Is this connector suitable for outdoor use?
  The 1986714-2 connector has a rating of IP67, which means it provides protection against dust and water ingress. However, it's essential to ensure the connector is properly sealed and installed to maintain its environmental rating. Additionally, consider using additional protection measures, such as conformal coating or potting, for extreme outdoor environments.
• What is the maximum operating temperature range for this connector?
  The 1986714-2 connector has an operating temperature range of -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.
• Can I use this connector with wire sizes other than the recommended AWG 20-24?
  While the datasheet recommends using AWG 20-24 wire, it's possible to use other wire sizes. However, it's essential to ensure the wire size is compatible with the connector's terminal design and that the wire is properly stripped and terminated to prevent damage or electrical issues.
