Eaton 85100AC1811SY50 Receptacle - MIL-DTL-26482 SI

Feature to Business Impact to Application: The 85100AC1811SY50 uses a square flange receptacle with an adaptor backshell and a straight orientation, delivering a robust mounting solution that reduces installation time and wiring errors in aerospace and industrial panels. This translates to lower assembly costs and faster field updates, especially when space is constrained and panel layouts demand precise alignment. The 11 solder-cup contacts in an 11-position cavity provide a reliable, easy-to-solder interface that improves electrical integrity under vibration and thermal cycling, critical for defense, aerospace, and heavy machinery applications. Cadmium plating on an aluminium shell offers proven corrosion resistance, extending service life in harsh environments and lowering maintenance costs over the product lifetime. The 1/3 bayonet coupling combined with delivery with connector improves mating reliability and simplifies integration with existing Souriau 851 series ecosystems, reducing integration risk during system upgrades or retrofits. The Y connector orientation and square flange receptacle design support flexible panel mounting, enabling cleaner harness routing and fewer misalignments during assembly. The operating temperature range of -40 °C to 125 °C ensures consistent performance across extreme climates, from aerospace ground tests to outdoor industrial deployments, aligning with strict industry standards and client compliance requirements. Compatibility with cadmium plating and aluminium shells also supports OEM design standards, improving supplier consistency and reducing part variants in multi-program production lines. In practice, engineers report faster debugging and easier spare parts provisioning due to standardized 11-contact configurations and clear orientation cues.
