APD / DIN 72585 connector is a direct, in-line and bulkhead sensor connector that is resistant to engine, transmission and brake fluid. It also boasts very low contact resistance, so you can benefit from maximum signal intergrity. APD is available in 1-, 2-, 3-, 4-, 6- and 7 position versions and has been designed to meet all DIN 72585 requirements. Applications for the 4- and 7-way connector include: Sensors, Traction / Anti Skid Control, Brake Control (ABS), Magnetic Switch Control Systems, Valve Control (Water, Oil, Air, Pressure), Lightening systems on Trucks and Trailers.
The ITT Cannon APD series provides direct, in‑line and bulkhead sensor connectors that resist engine, transmission and brake fluids while offering very low contact resistance for maximum signal integrity. Available in 1‑, 2‑, 3‑, 4‑, 6‑ and 7‑position versions, the connectors comply with DIN 72585 and are suitable for applications such as ABS, traction control, valve control and lighting systems on trucks and trailers.
