Description

This catalog covers the Amphenol MIL-C-26482, Series 2 Connectors. These connectors are bayonet coupling type, and they feature crimp contacts that are rear insertable and rear releasable. They can be ordered through Amphenol, by military or equivalent proprietary part numbers. The connectors covered in this catalog broaden the miniature cylindrical family offered by Amphenol, so that now users have the broadest range of product available to them.

Specifications and features

• Medium size, environmentally resistant connector
• Recommended operating voltage to 1000 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 connectors 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 colour 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

Application Scenarios

This electronic component model, MS3474L14-19PX, is commonly used in various applications that require medium size, environmentally resistant connectors. It is suitable for operating voltage up to 1000 VAC (RMS) at sea level. The quick positive coupling system ensures secure connections, and the five key/keyway design eliminates mismating. The rear insertable and rear releasable contacts make it easy to insert and remove contacts without damaging the front sealing characteristics. The connector grommets are tear-resistant and can withstand exposure to a broad range of fluids. The triple webbed grommet at the rear of the connector ensures sealing over a range of wire diameters. The closed entry socket side of the insert is designed to accept a pin contact bent within pre-established limits. The elastomer interfacial seal provides a positive moisture seal.

Comparison
