FC Lane Electronics is a leading authorised SOURIAU distributor and its Motorsport Division is providing a World Champion F1 Team with SOURIAU 8STA circular connectors for the car’s engine control box.
SOURIAU’s 8STA compact circular connector family is used extensively throughout all levels of motorsport in applications such as engine control units, communications equipment, data acquisition systems and harnesses.
SOURIAU 8STA circular connectors
The series of SOURIAU 8STA circular connectors consists of several connector types, each designed to meet specific motorsport applications. The series also includes the industry’s smallest circular connector, the Size 02. This is derived from established military specifications MIL-DTL-38999 and JN1003 and its ultra-compact design and lightweight construction make it ideal for connecting sensors and other complex electronic systems.
SOURIAU’s 8STA also includes the smallest and lightest circular connector of its type currently available and its high density capability provides up to 68 size 26 contacts using 24 to 30 AWG wire. This allows a smaller shell size to be used for the same application.
