| Model | Series | Type | Positions | Working Voltage | Rated Current |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CBTH1BG-SMSM05-D520 | 1B | Elbow (90°) plug, cable collet | 5 | 875 V | 9.0 A |
| CBZG0BG-SFSM02-0000 | 0B | Panel-mount fixed socket, nut fixing | 2 | 875 V | 10.0 A |
Both connectors share the push-pull self-latching mechanism, brass chrome-plated shells, and gold-plated contacts that define the push-pull connector platform used across Spring Technology’s medical, test, and instrumentation customers.
2. 1B Elbow Plug and 0B Socket Design Highlights
Spring Technology engineered each connector for its specific role in the Russian client’s medical equipment line.
2.1 CBTH1BG-SMSM05-D520 1B Elbow Plug for Surgical Tools
- 90° elbow design: Rear-exit cable routing on handheld medical tools improves balance and handling for surgeons during procedures.
- 9 A power capacity: The 5-pin configuration with 0.9mm contacts carries 875 V working voltage at 9.0 A, sufficient for powered scalpel and ultrasonic scalpel power cables.
- Push-pull self-latching: Secure retention prevents accidental disconnection mid-procedure, while a simple pull releases the cable for sterilization and service.
- Ergonomic cable collet: Cable opening from 2.2mm to 7.5mm accommodates the power cables used on surgical handpieces.
2.2 CBZG0BG-SFSM02-0000 0B Panel-Mount Socket for Patient Monitoring
- Compact 0B footprint: The miniature shell fits the small housings of pulse oximeters, defibrillators, and ECG machines.
- Charging and SpO2 probe interface: The 2-pin socket with 0.9mm contacts (875 V, 10.0 A) supports both power charging and SpO2 probe connections for indoor portable devices.
- Nut fixing panel mount: Secure chassis installation for repeated patient-side connect and disconnect cycles.
- Quick disconnect: Push-pull release speeds up device handover between patients.
Both models withstand more than 5000 mating cycles, operate from -45°C to +125°C, resist humidity up to 95% at 60°C, and pass vibration (10-20000 Hz, 15g), mechanical shock (100g·6ms), and salt spray (over 48 hours) testing — medical-grade durability for daily clinical use.
3. Series Connector Family Overview
3.1 1B Series Elbow Plug Options
The 1B series offers THG.1B elbow plugs from 2 to 16 positions, alongside straight plugs and fixed sockets — the same platform used for 1B connectors in ophthalmic examination equipment and 1B straight plugs with elbow sockets in earlier medical and instrumentation orders.
3.2 0B Series Panel-Mount Sockets
The 0B series is the miniature member of the family, with ZGG.0B fixed sockets from 2 to 9 positions for panel integration. The same 0BG custom model family powers 0B sensor cable assemblies delivered to Russian clients for multi-channel sensing applications.
3.3 Customization Services
- Cable Assembly: Custom cable length, connector configuration, and overmolding to match your exact routing and environmental requirements.
- Custom Inserts: Specific pin arrangements and mixed contact configurations for power, signal, and sensor needs.
- Special Materials: Shell materials, plating options, and custom colors for brand or application matching.
4. Applications for Medical Equipment Connectors
Medical device manufacturers rely on compact, ergonomic, and repeatable interconnects for both surgical instruments and patient monitoring systems.
4.1 Surgical Equipment
- Powered surgical scalpel handles and ultrasonic scalpel power cables
- Electrosurgical instruments requiring rear-exit, low-profile cabling
- Operating room equipment with quick-disconnect power interfaces
4.2 Patient Monitoring
- SpO2 probe interfaces on pulse oximeters
- Charging and signal ports on defibrillators
- Electrocardiogram (ECG) machine sensor connections
4.3 Portable and Handheld Medical Devices
- Indoor portable monitors with frequent patient-side connect cycles
- Replaceable sensor modules for diagnostic instruments
- Clinical accessories requiring sterilization-compatible connectors
The global medical device market is projected to exceed USD 600 billion by 2028 (CAGR 5.5%), while Russia’s electronic components market is expected to reach USD 8.2 billion by 2027 (CAGR 7.1%) — driving demand for reliable, application-specific push-pull connectors in medical equipment.
5. Common Questions (FAQ)
Q1: What are the electrical ratings of the CBTH1BG-SMSM05-D520 1B elbow plug and CBZG0BG-SFSM02-0000 0B socket?
The 1B elbow plug (5-pin) is rated 875 V at 9.0 A, and the 0B panel-mount socket (2-pin) is rated 875 V at 10.0 A, both with contact resistance of ≤5.0 mΩ. For specific load requirements, contact our engineering team at [email protected].
Q2: Why use an elbow plug on surgical handpieces?
A 90° elbow plug routes the cable out of the surgeon’s hand path, improving balance, reducing hand fatigue, and preventing cable strain during long procedures — a key ergonomic requirement for powered scalpel and ultrasonic scalpel handles.
Q3: Is the 1B series compatible with other brands’ connectors?
The 1B series connector offers excellent compatibility with many leading supplier systems. For specific interchangeability requirements, please contact our engineering team at [email protected] with your application details.
Q4: Can these medical connectors withstand repeated patient-side use?
Yes. Both the 1B and 0B series support more than 5000 mating cycles, operate from -45°C to +125°C, and pass vibration, mechanical shock, and salt spray testing — suited to the daily connect-disconnect cycles of patient monitoring devices and surgical equipment.
Q5: What is the typical lead time for 1B and 0B series orders?
Standard orders typically ship within 20 working days. Larger quantities (500+ pcs) may require up to 40 working days. Rush orders and express shipping options are available — contact our sales team for confirmation.
