Amphenol Aerospace High-Temperature Series III Connectors
Amphenol Aerospace High-Temperature Series III Connectors are an ideal solution for interconnects and electrical wire assemblies near high-heat sources. These connectors are designed for applications with higher temperatures, such as hypersonic weapon systems, small-module nuclear reactors, and other advanced aircraft. Series III connectors are built to operate at temperatures up to +300°C for longer durations, with continuous duty at +260°C assured. Due to the utilized high-heat materials like alumina ceramic inserts and high-temperature elastomeric seals, these connectors can beat the heat.
These high-temperature connectors outperform standard mil-spec D38999 connectors under similar high-heat circumstances. The Temper-Grip socket contacts come standard, ensuring a ruggedized connection even during firewall testing at more than +1093°C. Amphenol Aerospace High-Temperature Series III Connectors are suitable for high-heat applications that require durability, reliability, and resistance to extreme heat.
