Lever Lock Connection Systems

Description Delphis lever lock design utilizes a mechanical assist lever which is used to provide a mating force below 75 N. This helps facilitate the hand-mating of high content connections, replacing the need for traditional bolt-together connections. Value is provided with the following: High content (18 terminations and above) Mixed blade size capability (0.64 mm to 8.00 mm) Small package size Hand-mateable Industry leading engage force Available assembled or unassembled Male blade protection Available sealed or unsealed Typical Applications Lever locks can be used in the automotive, transportation and commercial vehicle markets. This system is suitable for in-line and door system applications. Delphi can also provide custom designs based on customer requirements. Performance Advantages Lever locks provide the ultimate value by optimally packaging a high number of circuits that are easily mateable by hand. A two-piece connector/retainer design allows for use in numerous applications with minimal modifications.
