Built for the most extreme environments and offering considerable performance advantages over even the smallest MIL-DTL38999 Series III units, the new micro38999 connectors allow size and weight savings of as much as 50% when compared with regular MIL-DTL38999 Series III types.
The micro38999 circular connectors are available in three different fastening systems – screw fastening, bayonet coupling and push-pull.
Although size has been dramatically reduced, performance has not been compromised. As an example, micro38999 connectors feature a temperature range of -55 to +175ºC (continuous) and an ingress rating greater than IP 68 when used with the appropriate cable termination.
The new connectors have removable crimp contacts which allow them to be wired or unwired on-site. Up to 26 contacts can be accommodated in a choice of 5 layouts.
Lane Electronics has available product in the classic galvanic coatings although the connectors can be supplied with non-reflective black zinc nickel protection to satisfy the latest RoHS directives.
