Amphenol broadens their Miniature Circular Family of Connectors with the addition of the Matrix® Product line of MIL-C-26482 series II connectors. This series provides a bayonet coupling connector with crimp rear insertable, rear releasable contacts.
Medium size, environmentally resistant connector
Recommended operating voltage to 1,000 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 connector 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 color 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
