■ Materials and Finish

Note: For non-standard plating, contact your OMRON representative.

■ Applicable Wires and Contact Sizes

Note: The contact numbers are marked on the contact insulation barrels.

Assembled Configuration

■ Insulation Displacement (IDC) versus Crimp Termination

IDC termination provides the following advantages over crimp style termination, when using discrete wires;

• Overall cost is lower, because less manhours are required. Wire

stripping is eliminated and inspection is easier.

• IDC termination provides consistent quality, improving yield.

• XG5 terminals are installed in the socket housing at the factory,

simplifying the Bill of Material and parts control.

• Optional replacement IDC terminals facilitates re-configuration of wiring.
