38999 S II MIL-DTL-38999 Features and Application Series II Features and Application Closed-Entry Socket Insert Hard dielectric socket face has lead-in chamfers for positive alignment of pins (even partially bent within pre-established limits) with sockets. MIL-DTL-38999 Series II connectors feature a bayonet coupling mechanism with lower profile design and Interfacial Pin Insert Seal Raised moisture barriers rear-removable crimp contact retention system. around each pin, which mate into lead-in chamfers of hard face socket insert, provide individual contact sealing. Inter- These connectors were designed for military and commercial facial seal is never touched by service tools. applications where the prime requirements are lower profile and lighter weight. Elastomer Wire Sealing Grommet Sealing over a wide range of wire diameters is assured by a triple wire seal in Reduction of both size and weight were achieved through the each cavity at the rear of the connector. use of thinner shell walls and length restrictions. These design restrictions reduced the RFI attenuation characteristics and the Superior Contact Stability Rear release crimp contact scoop protection, while yielding an excellent general purpose, system features a stamped beryllium-copper retaining clip lightweight connector. Compared to Series I, Series II connec- captivated by molded-in shoulders of each contact cavity in tors achieve up to 20% reduction in mated pair length, up to the insulator. A rear-inserted M81969 plastic tool expands 39% reduction in outside diameter and up to 40% reduction in the tines beyond the shoulder, releasing the contact. weight (128 pin mated pair). Shell Polarization Alternate key/keyway positions prevent This family of connectors is offered in six receptacle-mounting cross mating of adjacent connectors having same insert styles. They include square flange receptacles, for both front arrangement. and rear panel (wall) mounting square flange receptacles, for both front and rear panel (box) mounting square flange recep- tacle with extended grommet, for front of panel (box) mount- ing and jam nut receptacles which incorporate O ring seals, designed for rear panel D hole mounting. Plugs are available in two designs, with and without RFI grounding. Fifty-two insert arrangement per MIL-STD-1560 are tooled and qualified to MIL-DTL-38999 Series II, utilizing 3 to 128 M39029 contacts. Contacts come in sizes 22D, 22M, 22, 20, 16 and 12, terminating wire sizes from 28 to 12 gauge. These connectors are available in wide range of shell materials and finishes. Aluminum shells are offered in electroless nickel, bright cadmium, anodized, and olive drab cadmium. Other fin- ishes such as zinc cobalt are available upon request to commer- cial callouts only. In addition, we offer passivated stainless steel shells with standard environment-resisting inserts (commercial callouts only). Universal I/R Tool A single, expendable plastic tool is used for both insertion and removal of contacts. www.conesys.com 22 sales aero-electric.com 38999 S II MIL-DTL-38999 Performance Specifications Series II Performance Specifications Shell-to-Shell Conductivity Maximum potential drop shall not exceed: Operating Temperature Range With RFI spring fingers, finish F = 1.0 millivolt, while Finish B: -65C to +175C (-85F to +347F) finishes A and B = 2.5 millivolts.
