Product Description
Overview
The KUPO KM10B2 is the closed-bottom 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. KM10B2 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 closed-bottom 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
When would I use the closed-bottom housing?
Use the closed-bottom housing when the assembly layout calls for that closed body configuration rather than the standard open housing.
Can KM10B2 be mixed with another contact count?
No. KM10B2 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.
