Available Replacement Connector for D2CG

CTC's K2CG connector is a premium replacement for D2CG, at a lower price point. The K2CG offers the same functionality, but features a reduction of outsourced components for enhanced reliability.

K2CG Connector Details:

• Stainless steel connector locking ring (compared to aluminum on D2CG)
• Custom molded 2 socket polycarbonate connector insert (CTC controls the manufacturing of this – we own the mold for the inserts, giving CTC superior control over supply chain delays compared to commercially sourced Amphenol or worldwide supplier parts)
• Internally reinforced aluminum strength collar (same as used in D2CG, with minor dimensional modifications to adapt to the actual 2 socket insert internal to the connector).
• Polyurethane in-house over-molded bending strain relief (same material, and very similar over-mold construction as D2CG)
• Lighter weight and smaller form factor than D2CG. This is not typically a driving factor in selecting industrial connectors, however, it does give it a “sleeker” look and form factor. The slight weight advantage does provide an improved pull strength in magnet mounted vibration measurements, in that it won’t mass load the magnet/accelerometer assembly as much as the D2CG when mounted horizontally, where the pull strength of the magnet could be compromised by the overall weight of the magnet/sensor/cable assembly.
