26-contact interface with pin (Male) solder cup contacts delivers a high-density, space-efficient power and signal path, reducing panel footprint and enabling faster harness routing. This translates into shorter install times and lower labor costs on new builds and retrofits. The result is improved overall equipment efficiency and reduced downtime during servicing. The 1/3 bayonet coupling provides quick, secure mating with dependable retention, improving reliability in vibration-prone environments and enabling rapid field servicing without specialized tools. Cadmium plating paired with an aluminium shell delivers robust corrosion resistance while keeping weight low, which reduces overall system mass and supports easier handling during installation and maintenance. The operating temperature range of -40 °C to 125 °C ensures dependable performance across outdoor, industrial, and process environments, translating to fewer warranty claims and longer asset life. The backnut backshell configuration with square flange receptacle geometry simplifies mounting alignment and ensures consistent mating with compatible chassis housings, reducing rework and ensuring compatibility with the Souriau 851 family and standard backnut accessories. Delivered with connector and a 26-position layout, this receptacle supports straightforward procurement and streamlined assembly, with solder cup contacts ready for reliable crimp-free or soldered terminations in control panels and machinery wiring harnesses.

FAQs
When installing the 85100E1626PX50, mount the square flange with the backnut to ensure secure alignment. Use the 1/3 bayonet coupling for quick, vibration-resistant mating and connect the 26 solder cup contacts to the harness with appropriate lead lengths. Check that the orientation is set to X and that the backnut remains accessible for service.
MIL-DTL-26482 SI qualification confirms compatibility with stringent military and aerospace environmental tests, including vibration, temperature cycling, and sealing requirements. For users, this means higher reliability in harsh industrial and field environments and a clear path to certification for assemblies that rely on this connector family.
Yes. The 26-contact layout provides a high-density interface within a compact footprint, enabling dense signal and power routing. The 1/3 bayonet coupling ensures secure mating, while the solder cup contacts support reliable terminations in tight control panels and multi-cable harnesses.
The connector operates from -40 °C to 125 °C, making it suitable for outdoor enclosures, industrial automation gear, and equipment exposed to wide ambient temperatures without performance loss.
Cadmium plating provides exceptional corrosion resistance and durability, especially in harsh environments. Be aware of regional RoHS/REACH guidance; while cadmium offers protection, ensure you meet applicable environmental requirements by using appropriate finishes and documentation for your application and site regulations.
