This specification covers the requirements for the application of AMPSEAL 16 Connector System which includes plug assemblies, cap assemblies, and heavy duty stamped and formed (HDSF) size 16 contacts used with the housing assemblies. The housing assemblies are available in 2 through 12 circuit versions and are intended for wire to wire and wire to device applications. This sealed connector system is mechanically mated and is designed with lanceless contact system.Illustration 1 shows a typical application of an AMPSEAL 16 Connector This illustration should be used by production personnel to ensure a correctly applied product. Applications which DO NOT appear correct should be inspected using the information in the preceding pages of this specification and in the instructional material shipped with the product or tooling.

REQUIREMENTS
Storage
Reel Storage
When using reeled contacts, store coil wound reels horizontally and traverse wound reels vertically.Connector Storage
Store connector assemblies in the shipping containers until ready for use.Shelf Life
The contacts should remain in the shipping containers until ready for use to prevent deformation to the contact. The contacts should be used on a first in, first out basis to avoid storage contamination that could adversely affect signal transmissions.Chemical Exposure
Do not store contacts near any chemicals listed below as they may cause stress corrosion cracking in the contacts.
Alkalies
Amines
Ammonia
Carbonates
Citrates
Nitrites
Phosphates Citrates
Sulfides Nitrites
Sulfur Compounds

Materials
The cap and plug assemblies are made from glass filled thermoplastic while the peripheral and wire seals are made from silicone rubber. The pin contacts are made of brass and the socket contacts are made of a copper alloy. Both contacts are available in gold or nickel plating and are available with or without an insulation barrel.Colors
The TPA's (Terminal Position Assurance) on the plug and cap AMPSEAL 16 Connector Assemblies come in colors to indicate mechanical polarization.Sealing
AMPSEAL 16 Connectors will accept wires having insulation diameters from 2.24 mm (.088 inch) to 3.94 mm (.155 inch). Although the HDSF Size 16 contacts will accept a wire size range of 14-20 AWG, and having an insulation diameter range from 1.96 mm (.077 inch) to 3.94 mm (.155 inch), only wires with insulation diameters within the recommended range for this product line should be used.Cap and Plug Assemblies
Single and dual row cap and plug versions are available on 4.5 mm (.177 inch) centerline spacing between circuits. A connector assembly consists of a plug assembly loaded with HDSF Size 16 socket contacts, mated to a cap assembly loaded with HDSF Size 16 pin contacts or a printed circuit (pc) board mounted "cap" assembly. Circuit identification is marked on each TPA and seal cover. Typically four different keying configurations are available for each connector size (colors and mechanical). An integral Connector Position Assurance (CPA) is designed on each plug assembly. Both plug and cap assemblies have a TPA feature to lock the contacts in the housings.
