The D38999/20WC8PA is a mid-range connector designed and manufactured by U.S. electronics accessory manufacturer Amphenol for use in a variety of applications, from harsh environmental conditions to harsh service environments. This article will provide a brief overview of the D38999/20WC8PA’s application field and working principle.

Application Field

The D38999/20WC8PA is a robust circular connector system with a wide range of applications. These applications can range from mil/aero to military, from medical electronics to industrial, from telecommunications to instrumentation. As a result, it can be used in a variety of situations, such as data communications, instrumentation, high temperature, high pressure, medical applications, aviation and defense systems, and many other applications.

These connectors are designed to be resistant to harsh environmental conditions such as vibration, shock, moisture, dust, and other factors. The dielectric strength of the connectors is in excess of 500 volts per mil, far exceeding the maximum requirements of many applications. In addition, the connectors are also designed for high performance in demanding service environments. The pins and sockets feature antifriction and locking features to ensure maximum reliable performance.

Working Principle

The D38999/20WC8PA connector system is comprised of two components; the male plug and the female receptacle. The plug is internally threaded and the female receptacle has an externally threaded neck with an annular groove. The male plug and female receptacle are mated using the two-step threaded mechanism. The male plug is first screwed into the female receptacle, causing the annular groove on the inside of the neck of the female receptacle to expand and compress the O-ring to create a watertight seal.

The two parts are then locked with the locking device on the female receptacle. This device consists of two parts; the retainer with a flip-seal and the lock ring with two lobes. The retainer is attached to the outside of the female receptacle and the lock ring is inserted onto the inside. Through the use of a small cotter pin, the lock ring is securely attached to the retainer, thus creating a highly reliable, vibration and shock resistant assembly.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the D38999/20WC8PA connector system is designed to a wide range of applications, including military, mil/aero, industrial, medical electronics, telecommunications, and instrumentation. It is robust and highly resistant to environmental conditions such as vibration, shock, moisture, dust, and other factors. The working principle of the connector system is the two-step threaded mechanism followed by the locking device for a reliable, vibration and shock-resistant assembly. Therefore, the D38999/20WC8PA is a reliable and highly flexible connector system for multiple applications.
