FEATURES
	Crimp-Type Attachment
	Contacts Are Color-Coded
	Accessories Available
	High Performance Design

NEWPORT® push-in crimp style contacts are manufactured from thermocouple alloy materials and are color-coded for easy identification. Contacts are crimp-terminated outside the connector assembly and inserted into the appropriate cavity by means of an insertion tool. They can be readily removed from the connector assembly using a special removal tool. Sealing plugs are available to seal unused positions in lieu of pin or socket.

To Order
Specify Connector Body, Contacts and Backshell (See Note 1).
Example: Cord-to-Cord connectors for 6 type J (Iron-Constantan) thermocouple circuits (pairs).

Male Connector Assembly
1. Body: MTC-12-MC
2. Pins: (+) Pos. Alloy, MTC-IR-P, 6 ea. / (–) Neg. Alloy, MTC-CO-P, 6 ea.
3. Backshell: MTC-12-SHL

Female Connector Assembly
1. Body: MTC-12-FC
2. Sockets: (+) Pos. Alloy, MTC-IR-S, 6 ea. / (–) Neg. Alloy, MTC-CO-S, 6 ea.
3. Backshell: MTC-12-SHL

Easy-to-Use Ratchet Action!
Specially designed MS standard crimping tool MUST be used to crimp wires properly to pins and sockets. Ratchet action ensures a complete crimp every time.

Important Notes
1. MS Standard Assembly Tools are required to crimp and assemble connectors properly. Order with first purchase.
2. Match pins and sockets to thermocouple alloys–Example: A 12-cavity connector carries 6 thermocouple circuits (pairs) requiring: 6 positive alloy pins or sockets and 6 negative alloy pins or sockets per body.
3. Order bodies in mating pairs. Style MC mates with both style FF and style FC.
4. Backshell cable clamps are recommended with each cord style connector.
