LIGHTWEIGHT CODE RED HERMETIC SEAL SERIES 806 MIL-AERO CONNECTORS
CODE RED LIGHTWEIGHT HERMETIC CONNECTOR TESTING AND VALIDATION
Connectors utilizing CODE RED hermetic encapsulant sealing underwent a grueling qualification test and validation process to prove material durability and hermeticity. Validation testing including 100 cycles of thermal shock
IAW EIA-364-32 Test Condition A -65°C to +200°C while maintaining hermeticity followed by 1000 hours of thermal aging at 200°C. Additional tests included:
PC Tail Receptacle 806-028
PC Tail Receptacle with El Ochito Octaxial Contacts 806-043
APPLICATION NOTES:
• DWV, DWV at altitude • IR, IR at temperature • Highly-Accelerated Life Testing (HALT) • Insert and contact retention
• Mating durability • Random vibration at temperature IAW MIL-DTL-38999 • Hermetic seal at 30 psi
1. Fuel Cells: Although CODE RED exhibits outstanding resistance to caustic chemicals and fuels, its use in fuel tanks/fuel cell applications is not recommended 2. Cryogenics: CODE RED has been tested and qualified to -65°C IAW MIL-DTL-38999 3. Sustained High-Operating Temperatures: CODE RED has been tested and qualified to +200°C IAW MIL-DTL-38999 4. High Radiation: Exposure to no more than 6 Megarads
The entire qualification test cycle was repeated successfully a second time with new parts to validate complete reliability.
