Circular connectors are electrical connectors, typically circular in shape, that aim to join two or more electrical circuits with each other. Backshells and cable clamps are two types of circular connectors often used in various applications. BLL1ASL18029XW is a backshell and cable clamp used for specific applications. This article provides an overview of the applications of BLL1ASL18029XW and its working principle.

Applications

BLL1ASL18029XW is a cable clamp and backshell designed for the popular MIL-DTL-38999 series III connectors. MIL-DTL-38999 is a high-performance, three-piece, bayonet-style connector system with greater wear resistance and durability than other circular connectors. The BLL1ASL18029XW is designed for thermoplastic elastomer hose (TEH) and single jam nut applications on a broad range of MIL-DTL-38999 connected devices. It is available in standard sizes and an array of customized versions.

BLL1ASL18029XW is often used in electronics, telecommunications, and industrial applications. Its primary uses are for military and aerospace systems, where its durable design makes it ideally suited for harsh or rugged environments. Its precise design improves sealing integrity and prevents moisture ingress, making it suitable for marine applications. It is also used in data communication systems, test benches, broadcast studios, oil and gas industry, and medical equipment.

Working Principle

BLL1ASL18029XW cable clamps are designed to reduce impedance by providing shielding to reduce and absorb electromagnetic interference. The backshell aids in the stabilization of the connector assembly during mechanical shock or vibration, preventing wire chafing and providing strain relief protection. It also provides a uniform transition between the cable assembly and the connector.

The BLL1ASL18029XW includes wire-clamp cable clamps and jam nuts. The cable clamps consist of a polyamide lever and housing and two stainless steel clamp arms. The stainless steel arms provide a secure connection, ensuring a robust grip on the cable. The jam nuts secure the connector to the device, providing additional stability to the connection and prevention of accidental disconnection.

The BLL1ASL18029XW is designed to create a secure connection between two cable assemblies. It provides shielding against EMI and prevents abrasion of the cable due to vibration and shock. With its durable design and ease of installation, it is a superior connector for rugged applications.
