Feature: MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualified construction delivers consistent electrical performance in demanding environments, across aerospace, defense, and rugged industrial installations. Business Impact: This qualification minimizes failure modes, lowers warranty costs, and shortens regulatory acceptance cycles for critical programs. Application: It is ideal for aerospace wiring harnesses and heavy-duty automation panels where reliability is mission-critical and downtime is costly. Feature: Square flange receptacle with a 5-position layout and 1/3 bayonet coupling supports compact, secure mating. Business Impact: The arrangement reduces panel depth, speeds assembly, and lowers field repair time while maintaining robust vibration resistance. Application: Suitable for tight-panel installations in industrial automation and vehicle electronics where space is at a premium. Feature: Cadmium plating on aluminium shell provides corrosion resistance in challenging environments. Business Impact: This extends service life, lowers preventive maintenance, and improves long-term total cost of ownership. Application: Ideal for outdoor enclosures, coastal operations, and high-temperature settings common in process automation. Feature: Aluminium shell size 14 with straight backshell adaptor and X connector orientation streamlines cabling paths. Business Impact: The lightweight enclosure reduces weight in aerospace and heavy-duty machines while preserving rigidity. Application: Great for high-density panels, aircraft systems, and robotics where quick, clean harness routing matters. Feature: Socket (female) Solder Cup contacts delivered loaded ready for field termination. Business Impact: Ensures robust solder joints, repeatable performance, and improved first-pass assembly yield. Application: Preferred for durable wire-to-board connections in MIL-spec equipment and defense electronics. Feature: Operating temperature range from -40 to 125 °C with REACH environmental considerations. Business Impact: Enables design flexibility across thermal extremes and compliant supply chains. Application: Suitable for automotive, industrial automation, and aerospace systems operating in harsh climates.

FAQs
The 85100A145SX50 uses a square flange receptacle with a straight backshell adaptor and X orientation, delivered as a loaded, ready-to-mate receptacle with a 5-cavity layout. For installation, mount the flange to the panel, align the X orientation, secure with standard fasteners, and mate with the corresponding Souriau 851-series plug using the 1/3 bayonet coupling for a secure, vibration-resistant connection.
It is a MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualified receptacle with 5 solder-cup contacts, cadmium plating, aluminium shell size 14, and a straight backshell. Operating temperature from -40 to 125 °C, with REACH environmental compliance. The 1/3 bayonet coupling enables quick mating, while the 5-position layout supports compact wiring and reliable signal integrity in demanding automation and aerospace environments.
Yes. The product targets aerospace wiring harnesses and rugged defense electronics requiring MIL-spec interfaces. The square flange receptacle, SI qualification, and corrosion-resistant cadmium plating on an aluminium shell meet common aerospace and military standards while maintaining lightweight characteristics. Its 5-contact arrangement suits compact, high-density interconnects in mission-critical systems, such as avionics panels and rugged industrial control cabinets.
The connector is MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualified and REACH compliant. It features cadmium plating and an aluminium shell suitable for harsh environments. While not stating CE or IP ratings, it aligns with MIL-spec design practices and environmental considerations for aerospace, defense, and industrial automation applications, supporting supplier audits and regulatory compliance.
By delivering a standardized MIL-spec interface with a robust solder-cup contact method and corrosion-resistant materials, it reduces field maintenance, minimizes downtime, and lowers replacement costs. The quick-mate 1/3 bayonet coupling and easy orientation X simplify assembly and spares management, resulting in faster deployment and predictable long-term ROI in capital-intensive automation projects.
