Cannon Trident Connectors
TNM Circular Connectors
TNM (Trident Neptune Metal) is specifically designed to meet the
needs of systems that require shielding, sealing, and the extra
durability of a metal shell. The combination of Trident contacts,
membrane seals, and the Universal Shielded Endbell* make TNM
both cost effective and easy to assemble.
TNM features nickel plated zinc alloy shells and UL 94 V-0 rated
thermoplastic insulators. All TNM receptacles are supplied with an
interfacial seal to provide sealing between connectors to IP67. In
addition, a membrane seal is available for those applications
requiring the sealing of discrete wires a the rear of the connector.
In order to seal multicore jacketed cables to connectors an endbell
is available. This has ‘O’ ring sealing to the connector and second
seal to the cable jacket. All TNM Circular Connectors are RoHS
Compliant.
