851 Connectors

SOURIAU 851 Connectors feature a positive bayonet coupling mechanism to ensure a reliable mechanical and electrical connection between mating halves. A helical locking ring on the plug couples with three dowel pegs on the receptacle for rapid locking. The orientation and location are confirmed by a system of five raised keys on the plugs, which couple with corresponding slots on the receptacles. Connectors with different angular positioning of the insulator relative to the shell can be provided to prevent mating of adjacent connectors with the same contact arrangements.
