WE GO TO EXTREMES TO MAKE SURE EVERY CONNECTION COUNTS

TE Connectivity (TE) Industrial & Commercial Transportation (ICT) is a reliable provider of solutions for harsh
environmental conditions. With a focus on employee expertise and durable products, we deliver the solutions
and support our customers can count on.
Years ago, tractors, construction equipment, trucks, and boats had simple electrical systems that might
have included electrical starting and a basic lighting package. Today, ECUs, joysticks, fuel-efficient engines,
LED lights, and CAN systems are standard equipment. The need to protect sensitive electrical systems from
vibration, moisture, dust, dirt, salt, and airborne particles has never been greater. TE Industrial & Commercial
Transportation is a leader in supporting today’s increasingly complex and sophisticated equipment and
applications.
Our comprehensive line of products includes an unparalleled portfolio of rugged sensors, terminals, connectors,
relays, and hybrid electric mobility solutions. These solutions are designed to withstand the harshest
environmental conditions and to help vehicles operate safer, cleaner, and smarter.

Our solutions adapt to virtually any harsh environment application, including:

Motors and ABS/EBS Telematics Sensors Wire-To-Wire Infotainment

Gearboxes Brake Units Units Coupling at Applications

for Industrial & Commercial Transportation

AMPSEAL Connector Series

Our AMPSEAL connectors are designed for cable-to-board harsh environment applications. Environmentally
sealed for rugged reliability, these connectors are available in cable plugs and PCB mount headers engineered
to withstand extreme temperature and moisture, including high-temperature underhood applications.
The pre-assembled receptacle housing connector features built-in contact sealing and an integral interfacial seal
that protects mated connectors. Rated to IP69K, AMPSEAL connectors are offered in arrangements from
8 to 35 positions. Available accessories include tool-less backshells, sealing plugs, and Connector Position
Assurance (CPA).

AMPSEAL ACCESSORIES
The accessory items available to complement the AMPSEAL connectors are backshells, sealing plugs, and CPA.

BACKSHELLS
AMPSEAL backshells offer a high level of protection and help reduce wire strain. They are made of heavy-duty
thermoplastic and provide enhanced aesthetics for AMPSEAL connector applications.
