APC Series Connectors

Amphenol Industrial Operations lightweight, IP67-rated, circular connectors are designed for fast-mating and signal applications

Image of Amphenol Industrial Operations APC Series ConnectorsAmphenol Industrial Operations APC series connectors are rugged, lightweight circular connectors designed to support power, signal, and hybrid connectivity in demanding industrial environments. Built on a durable plastic-shell platform, the APC series helps standardize connection interfaces while supporting fast, repeatable mating and environmental sealing when mated. The family includes variants for standard, compact, and higher-power requirements, giving engineers and equipment designers flexibility across a wide range of applications.

The APC series is designed for reliable performance in environments where dust, moisture, vibration, and serviceability matter. These connectors offer IP67 protection when mated, operate in temperatures from -40°C to +105°C, and provide up to 500 mating cycles, depending on application. APC series connectors also feature fast-mating coupling styles such as triple-start ACME thread, double-start thread, and bayonet options depending on the variant. Materials include plastic resin with UL94 V-0 flammability performance and F1-rated UV resistance, making the series well suited for indoor and outdoor use.

With current ratings up to 30 A and support for power, signal, and hybrid layouts, APC series connectors are a strong choice for control cabinets, industrial equipment, transportation systems, outdoor enclosures, lighting, HVAC controls, and power distribution applications. Additional accessories such as panel-mount and cable-mount options, back shells, protective caps, and strain relief components help simplify installation and maintenance. APC series connectors are also UL, TÜV, and RoHS compliant, making them a versatile interconnect solution for OEMs, distributors, and system designers seeking durable circular connectors for industrial power and signal applications.
