Metri-Pack
Connection Systems
Description:
Metri-Pack is a family of electrical connection systems which
utilizes internationally standardized male blade sizes, allowing for
flexibility in design. Blade sizes range from 1.5 mm to
8 mm with current capability ranging from 14 to 60 amps. Metri-
Pack systems are designed to be compatible with processing
techniques such as automated pull-to-seat and push-to-seat
assembly, dual-stage crimping, load cell crimp inspection and
automated part identification and orientation.
150 Series
Typical Application:
Ideal for low energy electronic circuits or power circuit
applications, the Metri-Pack product line includes:
• High-performance interconnects in sealed or unsealed versions.
• Custom-engineered direct connections to motors, switches,
sensors and other devices.
• Environmentally sealed electronic headers with current
capacity of 14 amps, designed for service in severe
environments.
• Junction blocks and electrical centers.
280 Series
Performance Advantages:
With an extended product range, Metri-Pack systems offer
significant design and application versatility. Metri-Pack
connections feature Terminal Position Assurance (TPA),
Connector Position Assurance (CPA), serrated crimps and triple-
rib peripheral seals. In addition, these field-proven systems
provide exceptional performance, confirmed over many years on
global applications.
