Troubleshooting

No connection or intermittent signal

Check the solder joint for integrity. Ensure the mating connector is properly seated and is the correct 2mm type. Verify that the cable is securely connected to the plug.

Connector feels loose in the socket

Inspect the mating socket for damage or wear on the contact surfaces. Ensure the correct 2mm plug is being used, as 2mm plugs have specific tolerances.

Overheating during operation

Verify that the current being drawn does not exceed the 6A continuous operating limit. Check for high resistance in the connection or cable, which could indicate a poor solder joint or damaged conductor.

Physical damage to the sleeve

If the PVC sleeve is torn or cracked, it may compromise protection. Replace the connector if structural integrity is affected to prevent further damage to the connection.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable construction with crushproof PVC sleeve.
  • Reliable solder termination for secure connections.
  • Good current handling capacity (6A) for its size.
  • Low contact resistance (6mΩ max) ensures signal integrity.
  • Clear color coding (Green) aids in identification and organization.

Cons

  • Requires specific 2mm mating connectors, limiting broad compatibility.
  • Solder termination may not be suitable for all field-replacement scenarios.
  • Miniature size may be challenging for users with limited dexterity.
  • Not rated for high-voltage or high-current applications beyond 6A.
  • Primarily designed for cable mounting, not panel mounting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To install, strip the appropriate length of cable wire and pass it through the sleeve. Solder the wire to the connector pin, ensuring a clean and solid joint. Secure the sleeve over the termination point. Ensure the mating socket connector is clean and compatible with the 2mm pin.

Compatibility: This plug is designed to mate with SKS Hirschmann 2mm MST 3 socket connectors or other compatible 2mm plug connectors. Verify that your existing or intended mating connector specifically supports a 2mm pin diameter and 10mm pin length. It is insulated and designed for cable mounting.

Care: To maintain optimal performance, keep the connector and its mating part clean and free from debris or corrosive substances. Periodically inspect the solder joint and the PVC sleeve for any signs of damage or wear. Avoid exposing the connector to excessive heat, moisture, or chemicals beyond its operational limits. Cleaning can be done with a dry or slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
