Abstract
A sealed electrical and pneumatic connector for a hollow piston rod or the like comprises mating connector bodies which provide pneumatic and multiple electrical interfaces. The pneumatic interface includes a hose which carries seals and a slide for sealing the pneumatic interface effectively. The upper connector body houses conductor seals and carries an external seal sleeve for sealing the opening of the hollow piston rod. The upper connector is retained by a retainer which assures proper positioning of the electrical terminals. The retainer is locked by a clamp which assures proper mating of the connector bodies.
