Drawing & Dimensions
Deutsch DTM06-3S 3-Socket Receptacle Housing, Gray
Part of Deutsch’s widely deployed DTM (miniature) series, the DTM06-3S provides a 3-position receptacle interface rated to IP68 for sealed-cavity applications. Engineered for 7.5A continuous current at 250V and operating temperatures from -55 °C to +125 °C, the housing accepts Size 20 solid contacts (sold separately) and is rated to IP68 for dust ingress and continuous water immersion.
Typical Applications
The 3-position configuration is commonly specified for low-speed CAN bus terminations in body controllers and lighting modules, as well as single-coil solenoid valves and relay coil power for hydraulic manifolds. Its combination of sealed construction and 7.5A continuous current capability makes it a versatile choice for both power and signal circuits.
Mating and Integration
The DTM06-3S mates directly with the DTM04-3P on the opposite harness side, providing a fully sealed in-line connection. Push-to-seat solid contacts are crimped to the wire, then inserted into the housing from the rear until they lock into the cavity. A secondary lock wedge (where applicable to the DTM (miniature) series cavity arrangement) provides positive contact retention.
Where It Is Deployed
Field-proven in on-highway commercial trucks, buses, and specialty vocational vehicles, as well as industrial automation cells, conveyor systems, and process skids. The IP68 sealed design tolerates engine-bay heat, under-chassis water splash, and chemical exposure typical of these environments.
Why Specify This Part
All housings are 100% dimensionally inspected to ensure proper mating with corresponding DT-series counterparts.
