Introducció
This manual provides essential information for the proper setup, operation, and maintenance of your Pico 5990PT 2-Way Deutsch/Wedgelock Connector Female Housing and Wedge Set. This product is designed for creating durable and sealed electrical connections in harsh environments, commonly used in automotive and industrial applications.
The set includes one female housing and one wedgelock, intended for use with Deutsch DT series terminals (solid barrel or open end) and designed to mate with the 5991 Male Housing.
Configuració
Follow these steps to properly set up your Pico 5990PT connector:
- Terminal Insertion: Ensure your wires are properly crimped with compatible Deutsch DT series terminals (not included). Carefully insert the terminated wires into the female housing until they click into place. Verify that each terminal is securely seated by gently pulling on the wire.
- Wedgelock Installation: Once all terminals are inserted, slide the green wedgelock into the housing. The wedgelock is crucial for locking the terminated wires in place, preventing accidental dislodgement and ensuring a secure connection.
- Mating with Male Housing: The 5990PT Female Housing is designed to mate with the Pico 5991 Male Housing. Align the female housing with the male plug housing and push them together firmly until the releasable tabs lock, forming a sealed and durable connection.

Once assembled and mated, the Pico 5990PT connector provides a robust electrical connection. The thermoplastic housing and silicone seals contribute to its ability to withstand harsh environments, offering protection against moisture, dust, and vibrations.
To disconnect the housings, locate the releasable latch on the male plug housing (Pico 5991) and disengage it before gently pulling the two connector halves apart. Avoid pulling directly on the wires.
Manteniment
The Pico 5990PT connector is designed for durability and requires minimal maintenance. However, periodic inspection is recommended to ensure optimal performance:
- Inspecció visual: Regularly check the housing for any signs of physical damage, cracks, or deformation. Ensure the wedgelock is securely in place.
- Neteja: Keep the connector free from dirt, debris, and moisture. If cleaning is necessary, use a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the thermoplastic material or seals.
- Integritat del segell: Verify that the silicone seals are intact and not cracked or degraded, as these are critical for maintaining the sealed connection in harsh environments.
