Features and Benefits of MIL-DTL-26482 Series II

  • 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
