Feature: MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification. The qualification provides documented performance, traceability, and interchangeability across the 851 series, reducing compliance risk and warranty costs for assemblies exposed to vibration and temperature extremes. This makes the 85100A106SW50 ideal for aerospace, defense, rail, and harsh industrial environments where MIL-spec interconnects are a standard requirement. Feature: 6 solder cup contacts. This configuration supports robust, soldered connections with predictable contact resistance and signal integrity across all cavities, simplifying harness fabrication and QC. The solder cup method is familiar to technicians, enabling quick field repairs, while maintaining consistent electrical performance in compact panel or backplane layouts. Feature: 1/3 bayonet coupling. Quick-mate capability minimizes field downtime by reducing the number of steps required for mating and un-mating, while maintaining secure retention under vibration. When paired with the straight backshell adaptor and W orientation, it enables repeatable, reliable mating in tight installations and factory test rigs. Feature: Cadmium plating on an aluminium shell. The cadmium finish delivers corrosion resistance in challenging environments, complemented by an aluminium shell that provides excellent stiffness-to-weight ratio. This is particularly valuable in outdoor equipment, aerospace, and mobile machinery where weight reduction and longevity matter. Feature: Square flange receptacle with straight adaptor and W orientation. The geometry simplifies panel mounting, reduces misalignment risk, and improves ingress protection when combined with compatible backshells. Delivered with connector ensures full compatibility within the Souriau 851 family, streamlining procurement and spare-part planning for large, multi-vendor assemblies. Feature: Broad operating temperature and environmental compliance. The -40 to 125°C range supports operation through extreme thermal cycles, while REACH compliance helps meet regulatory requirements for restricted substances. Together, these attributes translate into lower field failures, reduced maintenance intervals, and greater confidence in automation, control systems, and aerospace installations.

FAQs

The 85100A106SW50 is a square flange receptacle with a straight adaptor and W orientation, utilizing a 1/3 bayonet coupling for quick and secure mating. It features six solder cup contacts, supporting reliable, field-terminable connections in compact panel or backplane layouts. This combination simplifies installation and reduces alignment risk during assembly.
Yes. It carries MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification and REACH compliance, delivering validated performance and regulatory alignment for aerospace, defense, and rugged industrial applications. The aluminium shell with cadmium plating provides corrosion resistance, and the -40 to 125°C operating range supports operation through extreme temperature cycles common in outdoor and aerospace settings.
Compatibility centers on the 851 series’ design intent: six cavities, solder cup contacts, 1/3 bayonet coupling, and the W orientation. When selecting backshells, ensure the adaptor type matches the mating part family and that shell size ten and aluminium material are suitable for the enclosure. Procuring from the same Souriau 851 family simplifies sourcing and interchangeability.
MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification confirms performance under stringent military standards, while REACH compliance addresses environmental restrictions on substances. There are no implicit CE or IP ratings stated in the data; for those certifications, verify with the supplier if your project requires additional regulatory marks beyond MIL-DTL-26482 SI and REACH.
The combination of quick-mate 1/3 bayonet coupling, robust solder cup connections, and a corrosion-resistant aluminium shell reduces field maintenance downtime and failure rates. The wide operating temperature range (-40 to 125°C) supports longer service intervals, translating to lower lifecycle costs and higher uptime for automated systems, robotics, and other demanding installations.
