Numbering Reference Guide

Here is some help in understanding the Deutsch numbering system.

We will use a three contact Plug, DT06-03S, in the example below.

Deutsch Connector Numbering System

It is important to note the DT and DTM Series 8-Way and 12-Way Plug and Receptacle Housings are available in four different keyed configurations and are identified by distinct colors for each key position as follows:
Key Position A - Gray (Exception: Some Key Position A Housings are also available in Black)
Key Position B - Black
Key Position C - Green
Key Position D - Brown

Special Modifications are indicated by four additional numbers/letters and, if any, indicate options. For example: -E004 = Black Housing.

A complete Receptacle assembly is comprised of one Receptacle housing, one wedgelock and the required number of pins. All seals are included.

A complete Plug assembly is comprised of one plug housing, one wedgelock and the required number of sockets. All seals are included.

Sealing plugs are available to prevent contaminants from entering unused openings in the rear of Plug and Receptacle housings.
