S ensor devices in aerospace engine applications are increasingly exposed to higher temperature operating environments. Environmental sensors in nuclear power reactors—an extremely high temperature and radiation-rich environment—are also exposed to temperature extremes well beyond the capabilities of conventional interconnect devices. Series 806 micro miniature connectors with Glenair Signature ThermaRex high-temperature inserts are designed to survive and excel in high continuous operating temperature application environments up to 300°C. The Series 806 Mil-Aero ThermaRex product family includes connectors, cables, and accessory wire protection conduit systems. Glenair recommends ArmorLite CF high-temperature corrosion-resistant shielding for hybrid EMC electrical/optical applications. Extreme Temperature “ThermaRex” Series
