With a Wide Variety of Coupling Styles & Options
This series provides many choices within the range
of a medium sized, environmentally resistant
circular connector. With three coupling style choices
- bayonet, threaded and quick-disconnect - the
versatility of this family makes it increasingly
popular for panel mount, box mount and line-to-line
applications in aircraft. For general duty
environmentally resistant requirements, this family
of connectors provides a wide range of
interconnection solutions.

DESIGN CHARACTERISTICS
•
Recommended operating voltage to 600 VAC
(RMS) at sea level
•
Complete environmental sealing includes
individual contact seals and a silicone elastomer
interfacial seal with raised barriers around each
pin, a shell-to-shell seal and an insert-to-shell
seal. Sealing over a wide range of wire diameters
is assured by a triple-webbed grommet design
• Captive coupling nut prevents tampering, while a
reduced coupling ring ramp allows easier mating
•
Incorporates crimp rear release contacts in sizes
12, 16 and 20; contact arrangements accept 2 to
61 circuits
•
Contacts conform to SAE AS39029** and use
standard qualified rear-release type plastic tools
•
Insertion and removal of contacts from the rear
of the connector assures no damage to the front
that might affect the sealing characteristics
• Grommets are constructed of tear-resistant
elastomer and experience no degradation when
exposed to a broad range of fluids
•
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
• MS and Commercial versions available
•
Alternate positioning available
• Aluminum shells with black anodized, cadmium
or electroless nickel finish options; passivated
stainless steel shells are also available

Insert Availability and Identification,
Alternate Keying Positions, Alternate Rotations
ALTERNATE KEYING POSITIONS (Rotation of key/keyway of shell)
To avoid cross-plugging problems in
applications requiring the use of more than
one connector of the same size and
arrangement, alternate keying positions are
available as indicated in the chart below. The
diagram shows the engaging view of a
receptacle shell with keyways. Plug shells
would be the opposite of this diagram.
In the “alternate keying positions”
(positions 6, 7, 8, 9 and Y), the minor keys/
keyways are positioned with reference to
master key/keyway as indicated in the
keying position table.
