MIL-C-24308 D Subminiature

D*H hermetically sealed connectors are designed
to meet environmental conditions of extreme
pressure differential. These connectors are part
of the ITT Cannon D Subminiature series and are
qualified to MIL-C-24308 (refer to page 41 for
cross reference information). The hermetic seal
prevents leakage and subsequent accumulation
of corrosive moisture behind the connector.
There are five basic shell sizes in both standard
and thru-bulkhead designs which can accommo-
date from nine to 50 contacts. Polarization is
achieved by the keystone shape of the shell, a
feature of all connectors within the D Subminia-
ture series.

Military vs. ITT Cannon Current Ratings
The ITT Cannon rating for #20 contacts is 5
amps, which means 5 amps for all contacts simul-
taneously. MIL-W-5088 rates #20 contacts at 7.5
amps maximum. The explanation is as follows:
MIL-W-5088B, Paragraph 3.9.2.1.2 specifies:
“Table 1 current ratings for cables in bundles are
based upon 15 or more cables carrying no more
than 20% of the total carrying capacity of the
bundle.”
Table 1 specifies a current rating of 7.5 amps
maximum for single wires in bundles of 15 or
more wires. NOTE: Wires and contacts are both
considered to be in the category of conductors.
Explanation
If 15 wires (normally rated at 7.5 amps per wire
maximum, or at least a total bundle current of
112.5 amps) are not to carry more than 20% of
the total 112.5 amps, the average current rating
per wire is 20% of 112.5 amps (total bundle ca-
pacity) divided by 15 (number of wires).
Conclusion
The Military rating of #20 contacts or wires is 1.5
amps average (based on 15 wires per bundle or
15 contacts per plug) vs an ITT Cannon rating of
5 amps.

Notes:
1. Free air condition. Connectors not shielded from ambient
condition in any manner.
2. Confined condition. Connectors placed in insulated box (1 x 2
x 3.5) during test, with no moving air.
3. Average maximum temperature stabilization: 1 hour or less in
all cases.
4. All contacts in each mated pair tested were wired in series with
specified current flowing.
5. Ambient conditions 77°F, 50% rh.

Mounting Dimensions
Hermetic sealing is effective only when connec-
tors are front panel mounted, except for brazed
assemblies in which both shells are brazed to the
plate. Brazed assemblies may be used for either
front or rear panel mounting, and entire connec-
tor is subject to leak test. Consult factory for
other rear mounting applications.
