MS3476W22-55SX

MS3476W22-55SX bayonet coupling connector series, featuring rear-insertable and rear-releasable contacts for easy installation and removal. With a medium size and superior environmental resistance, this connector is perfect for a wide range of applications, both indoors and outdoors. With a recommended operating voltage of up to 1,000 VAC (RMS) at sea level, this connector is built to withstand the toughest conditions. The 3-point bayonet coupling system ensures quick and positive coupling, while the five-key/keyway design eliminates mismating. Visual confirmation of complete coupling guarantees a secure and reliable connection. The rear-insertable and rear-releasable contacts eliminate damage to the front of the connector, which could affect the sealing characteristics. The contacts are qualified to SAE AS39029 requirements and are crimped with standard crimp tools per MIL-DTL-22520. Grommets are made of tear-resistant elastomer and experience no degradation when exposed to a broad range of fluids. Sealing over a range of wire diameters is assured by a triple webbed grommet at the rear of the connector. The closed entry socket side of the insert is designed with a lead-in chamfer and a hard face that will accept a pin contact within pre-established limits. The elastomer interfacial seal on the pin side has raised barriers around each pin to displace into the socket chamfer when mated, providing a positive moisture seal. This connector series is available in various shell styles, including wall mount with either a narrow or a wide flange, jam nut single hole mount, and cable connecting receptacles, along with standard plugs or plugs with RFI grounding fingers, in shell sizes 8 to 24.
