DESIGN CHARACTERISTICS

Medium size, environmentally resistant connector
Recommended operating voltage to 1000 VAC (RMS)
at sea level
Quick positive coupling assured by 3 point bayonet coupling
system
Visual confirmation of complete coupling
Eliminates mismating by the use of five key/keyway design
Insertion and removal of contacts from the rear of the connectors
assures no damage to the front that might affect the sealing
characteristics
Utilizes same standard qualified rear release type
plastic tool for contact insertion and removal
Contacts are qualified to MIL-C-39029 requirements - BIN
coded (three colour bands), and are crimped with standard crimp
tools per MIL-C-22520
Grommets are constructed of tear-resistant
elastomer and experience no degradation when exposed to a
broad range of fluids
Sealing over a range of wire diameters is assured by a triple
webbed grommet at the rear of the connector
Closed entry socket side of the insert is designed with a lead-in
chamfer and a hard face that will accept a pin contact bent within
pre-established limits
Elastomer interfacial seal on the pin side has raised barriers
around each pin which displace into the socket chamfer when
mated, providing a positive moisture seal
