The recommended torque for the screw terminals is 0.5-0.7 Nm (4.4-6.3 in-lbs) according to TE Connectivity's application notes.
While the connector is designed for industrial applications, it's not specifically rated for outdoor use. However, it can be used outdoors if properly sealed and protected from environmental factors such as moisture and extreme temperatures.
The 5-87348-2 connector is designed to withstand moderate vibration levels. However, for high-vibration applications, it's recommended to use additional securing methods, such as wire ties or potting compounds, to ensure reliable connections.
The operating temperature range for the 5-87348-2 connector is -40°C to 105°C (-40°F to 221°F), as specified in the datasheet. However, it's essential to consider the temperature rating of the specific application and the materials used in the connector.
While the datasheet specifies AWG 20-24 wire sizes, the connector can accommodate other wire sizes with some adjustments. However, it's crucial to ensure the wire size and insulation meet the connector's specifications and don't compromise the connection's reliability.
