Product Line Overview
Deutsch DTP Series
Building on both the DT and DTM design strengths, the DTP
connector line was developed to fill the need for higher amperage,
multi-pin, inexpensive connectors. The series meets the same
specifications as the DTM and DT but offers the designer the ability
to use multiple 12 gauge contacts, each with a 25 amp continuous
capacity, within a single shell.
Based on the DTM overall design, it offers the protected interfacial
seal located within the receptacle shell. Standard multi-seal grommet
is used in both the plug and receptacle. Currently available in two and
four pin configurations.
PART NUMBERING SYSTEM(DTP)
Assembly Contact Insertion (DTM, DT, DTP)
1. Grasp crimped contact approximately 1.0” (25.4mm) behind the contact barrel.
2. Hold connector with rear grommet facing you.
3. Push contact straight into connector grommet until a click is felt. A slight tug will confirm that it is properly locked in place.
4. Once all contacts are in place, insert orange wedge: receptacles with half holes aligning with contacts. Plugs with contacts aligning behind full holes. The orange wedge will snap into place.
NOTE: The receptacle is shown use the same procedure for plug.
Contact Removal
1. Remove orange wedge using needlenose pliers to pull wedge straight out.
2. To remove the contacts, gently pull wire backwards, while at the same time releasing the locking finger by moving it away from the contact with a screwdriver.
3. Hold the rear seal in place, as removing the contact will displace the seal.
