DT Family Overview
DT Series:
DEUTSCH DT Series connectors offer field proven reliability and rugged quality. The DT Series has a thermoplastic housing with in-line, printed circuit board, or flange mounts. The DT Series offers the designer the ability to use multiple size 16 contacts, each with 13 amp continuous capacity, within a single shell.
DTM Series:
DEUTSCH DTM Series connectors can be used in harsh environmental applications where reliable signal circuits are critical to operating performance. Building on the DT design strengths, the DTM connector line was developed to fill the need for lower amperage, multi- pin, inexpensive connectors. The DTM Series offers the designer the ability to use multiple size 20 contacts, each with 7.5 amp continuous capacity, within a single shell.
DTP Series:
TE's DTP Series connectors are the answer to all of your most demanding power application requirements. DTP Series connectors offer the proven reliability and quality of TE's DT Series, combined with the added flexibility of using power contacts.
DTHD Series:
DTHD connectors are single terminal connectors for heavy duty applications. The DTHD Series was developed for applications requiring a complete, environmentally sealed, single power circuit termination and can be mounted or used in-line and are available in sizes 4, 8, and 12.
SAE J1939:
SAE J1939 is a specific type of CAN that defines the communications pathways for vehicle networks. J1939 specifications were originally designed for the automotive industry, but the variety of applications using J1939 CAN systems has expanded as the use of single Engine Control Units (ECU) has become commonplace in the diesel engine market. DEUTSCH DT and DTM connector options are specifically designed to meet the J1939 standards.
DT Detector TE Connectivity / DEUTSCH DT Detector is an extension of the
DT connector series. The 2 way plug features a transparent housing and a
wedgelock with an integrated 12 or 24V LED option. The environmentally
sealed Detector plug provides a visual confirmation of power to help
with troubleshooting, especially in areas with difficult connector
visibility and accessibility.

TE Connectivity / DEUTSCH DT Series Connectors
TE Connectivity / DEUTSCH DT Series of environmentally-sealed connectors are designed specifically for harsh environment cable to cable applications. Thermoplastic housings and silicone seals are used to allow the connector to withstand conditions of extreme temperature and moisture.
The connector may be employed with either solid-copper crimp type contacts for critical circuits or budget-minded stamped and formed contacts. The DEUTSCH DT Series general purpose connectors will provide reliability and performance on the engine or transmission, under the hood, on the chassis, or in the cab.

| Secondary Wedgelocks |
DEUTSCH DT style electrical connectors require secondary wedgelocks. These wedgelocks help confirm proper contact alignment within each connector. Secondary wedgelocks are assembled at the mating interface and press into place. If the secondary wedgelocks are somehow not properly seated during assembly, they will be pressed into locked position during the mating of the connector. Adding to the design flexibility of the DT series, several wedgelocks offer keying options. Wegelocks for enhanced seal retention plugs (P012) are also available.

| Gaskets |
Moisture, dirt, salt, sand, and road debris can work their way into electrical panels through unsealed mounting flanges. Rated to operate in environments from -70ºF to +225ºF (-56ºC to +107ºC), these rugged, high quality, neoprene gaskets form a tight seal between the panel face and connector flange to help keep out destructive elements. The gaskets have a thickness of .125" and the material meets the UL-94-HBF, Mil-R-6130C, and FMVSS-302 flammability specifications.

| Dust Caps |
The DT Series dust caps are made of either thermoplastic or durable plastisol. The dust caps are designed to provide protection for the connector interface when the two halves are not mated. The plastisol caps, available for plugs and receptacles, are suitable for providing temporary protection from dirt, dust, and paint overspray. The thermoplastic caps provide an environmental seal for an unmated plug.

| Backshells |
The DEUTSCH DT and DTM Series backshells are designed to snap onto and mate with all standard (base plug and receptacles without modifications that affect the rear of the connector) DT and DTM series connectors. The rigid, durable backshells offer a high level of protection and allow convoluted tubing to nest within the rear of the backshell.
Straight (180º) and right angle (90º) versions and backshells with straing relief for jacketed cable are also available. Since the backshells are designed to work with the standard DT and DTM connectors, tests should be conducted for fit and fucntion of a backshell being used on any part with a modification.

The two types of DEUTSCH contacts are solid and stamped & formed. Both styles of contacts are designed for crimp style terminations - no solder is required or recommended. Several tools are available for hand wire crimping and wire insertion
and removal. The tools are specific to the solid contacts or the stamped
& formed contacts. To create a proper crimp and achieve the highest
performance specifications, contacts must be crimped with the
recommended tooling.

| Hand Tools |
TE Connectivity / DEUTSCH offers several easy-to-use hand crimp tools for both solid barrel and stamped & formed contacts. All hand crimp tools provide a tight, complete crimp with minimal effort.
The HDT-48-00, the most commonly used tool for solid contacts, crimps a wide range of contact sizes. It provides a symmetrical four indent crimp, is compact and easy-to-use for field service, yet sturdy and reliable enough for low volume production.
Hand crimp tools for DEUTSCH stamped & formed contacts are wire gauge specific and simultaneously crimp the insulation and conductor, saving time and effort during field service.
