“MDMA series connectors are one of the only Micro D devices available with removable contacts for space applications,” said Gilles Parguey, high reliability connector product manager for C&K Components. “The removable crimp contacts provide customers with increased versatility, as they can adjust and crimp the cable diameter and length during final assembly to meet specific application requirements.”
The MDMA Series connectors are ideal for use in flight equipment, payloads and harnesses, satellites and launchers, as well as engineering models, ground equipment and testing. The connectors are also specified for medical and high reliability military and aerospace applications.
Using twist pin contact technology, the MDMA connectors are available in 9-, 15-, 25- and 37-way configurations, and are compatible with 26-28 AWG wire. The crimp tool is based on the D-sub connector crimp tool concept. A dedicated cable locator is available, and contact extraction tools are delivered with each connector. Optional interfacial moisture and humidity sealing is available on request.
