The PL-700 plug housing is designed to accept
Amphenol Alden’s one piece, Press & Seal PVC
Backshell. This unique backshell simply snaps into
place providing an IP-67 rated seal to the plug
housing and cable exit without hardware resulting in a
clean overmolded look. For optimum sealing we
suggest selecting a wire exit i.d. that is at least .005”
smaller than your nominal cable diameter .
