FAQs
The 85100AC1418PW50 uses a straight backshell and square flange receptacle design, compatible with the Souriau 851 series mating halves. The W-oriented connector and 1/3 bayonet coupling simplify panel mounting, while the 18-contact solder cup layout supports straightforward, low-risk field termination. Ensure mating with the corresponding 851-series plug and verify panel cutout dimensions meet the 48 mm depth and 28.9 mm width requirements.
MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification confirms performance under stringent military standards for vibration, thermal cycling, and environmental exposure. For aerospace applications, this translates to reliable mating, seal integrity, and long service life in mission-critical harnesses. The Eaton Souriau 85100AC1418PW50 also offers REACH compliance and cadmium plating to enhance corrosion resistance in demanding environments.
Yes. The connector is rated for an operating temperature range from -40 °C to 125 °C, making it suitable for extreme outdoor and industrial settings where thermal fluctuations and equipment heat are common. Cadmium plating and aluminium shell further support thermal and environmental resilience in harsh facilities.
Cadmium plating provides a protective barrier against corrosion in challenging environments, improving longevity in humid, salt-spray, or industrial atmospheres. For maintenance planning, this means longer intervals between inspections and reduced risk of contact degradation, contributing to lower total cost of ownership over the connector’s lifecycle.
Expect reduced downtime due to reliable mating and quicker field assembly from the straight backshell and bayonet coupling. The 18-contact capacity supports complex harnesses without sacrificing reliability, while the aluminum shell and cadmium finish lower maintenance costs. In regulated sectors, the MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification and REACH compliance help ensure audit readiness and smoother supplier qualification processes.
