1986715-2 - TE Connectivity

1986715-2 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 1986715-2 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 the connector compatible with wire sizes other than AWG 20-24?
  While the datasheet specifies AWG 20-24 wire sizes, the connector can accommodate smaller wire sizes (e.g., AWG 26-28) with the use of wire adapters or by following TE Connectivity's wire stripping and termination guidelines.
• How do I ensure proper EMI shielding with this connector?
  To ensure proper EMI shielding, make sure to connect the shielded cable to the connector's shielded area, and ensure the shield is properly terminated to the enclosure or chassis. Additionally, follow proper cable dressing and routing practices to minimize EMI radiation.
• Can I use this connector in harsh environmental conditions (e.g., high temperature, humidity)?
  The 1986715-2 connector is designed to operate in a temperature range of -40°C to 125°C and can withstand moderate humidity levels. However, for extreme environmental conditions, it's recommended to consult with TE Connectivity's application engineers or consider using specialized connectors designed for harsh environments.
