FAQs
For installation, ensure correct mating with the Z-oriented backshell, verify the 1/3 bayonet coupling engages fully to prevent loosening, and prepare solder cup terminations with appropriate flux and temperature profiles. The aluminium shell and cadmium plating require proper handling to maintain finish and EMI shielding during panel mounting.
Key specs include 16 contacts in a square flange receptacle, straight backshell, cadmium plating, and solder cup contact delivery. Operating temperature spans -40 °C to 125 °C, with the 1/3 bayonet coupling supporting secure, quick mating and high vibration resistance in harsh environments.
Yes. It is designed to MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualified, offering robust environmental performance, EMI shielding through aluminium shell construction, and high-temperature capability. The 16-position layout supports dense harnessing, making it well-suited for avionics panels, military equipment, and rugged ground systems.
The connector carries MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification for high-reliability service and REACH compliance for environmental considerations. The cadmium plating provides additional corrosion resistance, while the product’s aluminium shell supports EMI protection in demanding installations.
The 85100A2016PZ50’s secure 1/3 bayonet mating, reliable solder cup terminations, and durable materials reduce field maintenance and downtime. Its longevity in -40 to 125 °C environments lowers replacement costs, while the dense 16-pin layout improves wiring efficiency, contributing to lower assembly time and extended system life.
