Features and Application
Bayonet and Threaded Coupling
Features and Application
MIL-DTL-83723 Series III family oers connectors with
bayonet and threaded coupling including lanyard-release
quick-disconnects. ese connectors combine the best features
of MIL-DTL-26500 and NAS 1599 miniature connector
specications. ey are intermateable with both bayonet and
threaded 26500 connectors (exception: shell size 8, threaded
coupling only) and have the added advantage provided by the
rear-release contact retention system.
AE833 connectors are widely used on commercial, military
and aerospace systems requiring general-purpose, miniature
cylindrical bayonet or threaded coupling connectors. In
addition, Series III threaded connectors with self-locking
plugs are well suited for engine applications.
is family of connectors (bayonet as well as threaded) is
oered in wall mount receptacles as well as jam nut mounted
receptacles which incorporate “O” ring seals, designed for
rear panel “D” hole mounting.
Series III bayonet-coupling plugs are available in two designs
- with and without RFI grounding. readed coupling plugs
are oered with and without RFI grounding, self-locking
and RFI/self-locking. In addition we oer quick-disconnect
(lanyard release) plugs, which mate with threaded receptacles
via an adapter.
irty-one insert arrangements per MIL-STD-1554 are tooled
and qualied to MIL-DTL-83723 Series III, utilizing
2 to 61 M39029 contacts. Contacts come in sizes 20, 16 and
12, terminating wire sizes from 24 to 12 gauge.
ese connectors are available in wide range of shell materials
and nishes. Aluminum shells are oered in electroless nickel,
olive drab cadmium and black anodic. Other nishes such as
zinc cobalt are available upon request to commercial callouts
only. In addition, we oer passivated stainless steel shells
with both standard and rewall-rated inserts, and for highly
corrosive environments, nickel-aluminum-bronze 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.
Shell Polarization – Alternate key/keyway positions pre-
vent cross mating of adjacent connectors having same insert
arrangement.
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.
Interfacial Pin Insert Seal – Raised moisture barriers around
each pin, which mate into lead-in chamfers of hard face sock-
et insert, provide individual contact sealing. Interfacial seal is
never touched by service tools.
Elastomer Wire Sealing Grommet – Sealing over a wide
range of wire diameters is assured by a triple wire seal in each
cavity at the rear of the connector.
Superior Contact Stability – Rear release crimp contact
system features a stamped beryllium-copper retaining clip
captivated by molded-in shoulders of each contact cavity in
the insulator. A rear-inserted M81969 plastic tool expands the
tines beyond the shoulder, releasing the contact.
