FAQs
The 85100A1418PZ50 uses a 1/3 bayonet coupling and a square flange receptacle design, which aligns with standard MIL-DTL-26482 panel interfaces. This compatibility ensures straightforward mating with matching plugs and backshells, and simplifies field installation. For best results, verify connector orientation (Z) and ensure the mating connector carries the same contact count and solder cup style.
Key specs include 18 contacts in a compact 41 mm length, cadmium plating on an aluminium shell for corrosion resistance, and a -40 to 125 °C operating temperature range. The straight backshell and 1/3 Bayonet coupling improve vibration resistance and mating reliability, while the solder cup contacts provide robust, tin-free terminations suitable for demanding industrial environments.
Yes. The MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification and the Souriau 851 series pedigree position this receptacle for demanding applications in both aerospace-adjacent industrial automation and rugged equipment panels. Its lightweight aluminium shell, durable cadmium finish, and 18-pin configuration support high-density interconnects, while the Z-oriented backshell supports efficient harness routing in constrained spaces.
The product is MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualified and REACH compliant, reflecting performance and environmental considerations for modern manufacturing. While CE or IP ratings are not listed in the data, the MIL-spec qualification and REACH status provide strong regulatory alignment for safety and environmental responsibility in both aerospace-adjacent and industrial settings.
Cadmium plating and aluminium construction extend corrosion resistance and reduce maintenance cycles in harsh environments, lowering total cost of ownership. The 18-contact layout supports high-channel interconnects with compact wiring, decreasing harness complexity and service time during upgrades or repairs. Rapid mating reduces downtime on panel changes and field servicing scenarios.
