Product Description

Overview

The KUPO KM10B1 is the standard housing for the KM10 Multi-Pin connector system. It provides the mechanical body for a 10-contact connector assembly, receiving the matching plug or socket insert and the selected hood hardware for a rugged touring, entertainment, or industrial multi-pin build.

Why It Matters

In a multi-pin connector, the housing is the part that takes the handling abuse before the insert ever sees the job. KM10B1 gives the KM10 assembly an aluminum die-casting alloy body, oil-and-aging-resistant neoprene gasket, and zinc-plated steel locking levers so the connector can survive repeated setup and teardown.

Key Features

  • 10-pin standard housing for KUPO KM10 Multi-Pin connector assemblies
  • Aluminum die-casting alloy body protects the insert and supports repeated production handling
  • Neoprene gasket resists oil and aging for longer connector service life
  • Steel zinc-plated locking levers help secure the assembled connector during use
  • Part of the KUPO Multi-Pin family rated 400 to 600 V with UL / CSA safety standard reference

Applications

Use it when building or maintaining multi-pin cable assemblies for touring, entertainment, event, venue, rental-house, and industrial equipment interconnects.

Compatibility

Use only with matching KM10 plug or socket inserts and compatible KM10 hood components. Match contact count, hood style, cable gland, conductor cross section, and the mating connector before assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the housing do in the assembly?

The housing is the mechanical body that holds the insert and mates with the hood hardware. It is not the electrical insert by itself.

Can KM10B1 be mixed with another contact count?

No. KM10B1 belongs to the KM10 family and should be matched with 10-pin inserts and compatible KM10 hoods.

What should be checked before assembly?

Check the insert gender, hood outlet direction, cable gland, conductor cross section, and mating connector. Multi-pin parts should be selected as a complete connector system.
