DEUTSCH COMMON CONTACT SYSTEM
Fundamental to the Deutsch connector series is the
principle that all wires are terminated by a
single contact system. The only variation in
contacts is that dictated by wire gauge. The word
“common” describes the Deutsch contact system
well. Deutsch contacts, whether solid or stamped
and formed, can be assembled into the entire
Deutsch connector family.Let’ s look at the common
system of contacts, tooling, processes, and
terminations in detail:
COMMON CONTACTS
The basic system uses five contact sizes: 4, 8,
12, 16, & 20.These are the only contacts that an
O.E.M.or their supplier need stock no matter what
connector is being terminated. Two styles
of Deutsch contacts are available - solid crimp
types, manufactured by a cold heading process
of solid copper alloys. Stamped and formed
contacts are manufactured with a series of
progressive dies. Both contacts are interchange-
able within the connector and are selected based
upon the user’s application.Stocking costs,engi-
neering costs, and termination costs are all
slashed, because the number of evaluations, test
procedures,test reports,process standards,draw-
ing notes,etc.,are reduced,if not eliminated.
COMMON TOOLING
Two hand crimp tools are used to crimp the five
different sizes of contacts to the wire end. For
semi-automation to full automation, one univer-
sal crimp tool will crimp the volume requir ed f or
wire termination.
COMMON PROCESSING
Using Deutsch contacts means that the way an
O.E.M. supplier attaches a wire to its terminus
never varies. This procedural standard allows
electrical workers to become highly proficient in
terminating Deutsch connectors.
COMMON TERMINATIONS
The selection of Deutsch connectors means
that all contact terminations will be the same,
thus reducing the chance of errors in the
harness system. Performance, reliability, and
maintainability are critical to any electrical
system. The use of a common contact system
eliminates many of the failures reported in
harnesses where hundreds of different types
of terminations are used. The end result of
selecting Deutsch is increased profits and long
term performance.
