Yeonhab MIL-DTL-38999 Series IV Circular Connector Series

The Yeonhab D38999 Series IV connector line is perfect for use in defense and aerospace applications where extreme resistance to vibration and shock is required. Yeonhab's edge is having invested early to localize production of MIL-spec connector lines which positions that manufacturer as a qualified, reliable, cost competitive source with minimal possibility of supply chain disruption.

Yeonhab MIL-DTL-38999 Series IV

The Yeonhab D38999 Series IV is utilized where excessive vibration and shock is part of daily life. Industries served include defense electronics like avionics, radar, communication radios and ground vehicle electronics. Aerospace applications include extreme conditions in flight control and engine monitoring.

Available Configurations

The Yeonhab D38999 Series IV variants include straight plugs, jam-nut receptacles, wall-mount receptacles, feed-through receptacles and hermetic receptacles. Standard shells are available in sizes 9-25 with contact configurations from 6-128 pins or sockets. Mil-spec plating selections include OD cad and nickel.

Design and Functionality

The breech-lock coupling design has a primary and secondary locking system yet only requires a 90-degree rotation to engage and disengage. This breech bayonet blind-mate coupling design minimizes engagement time, making it ideal for applications requiring rapid connector access or modular maintenance. A unique grounding system forms a 360-degree shield inside the shell, grounding the connector when the mating shells meet.

Demanding Environments and Power Requirements

Yeonhab D38999 connectors have an exceptionally wide usable temperature range of -65°C to +200°C ( -85°F to +392° F) and are splash resistant to hydraulic fluid, JP-8 aviation fuel, lubricating oils, and deicing/defrosting fluid. Precision engineered seals give an IP67/IP68 rating.
