Product catalog summary
Overview
The document provides a detailed overview of Sub-miniature D (Sub-D) connector systems, including their specifications, variations, and applications. Developed in 1952 by ITT Canon, these connectors are widely used in computer peripherals and industrial applications.
Specifications
Sub-D connectors come in various configurations such as standard, high current, high density, mixed power, and mixed coaxial versions. They are standardized by DIN 41652, MIL-C-24308, and IEC807-2, and are designed for high vacuum (HV) and ultra-high vacuum (UHV) environments. Key specifications include:
  • Pin diameter: 1.0mm (standard), 0.7mm (high density), 3.6mm (mixed power)
  • Leak rate: <5x10-10 mbar-l/s He
  • Temperature range: -200°C to 250°C
  • Test voltage: 500V DC
  • Maximum current: 3A to 20A depending on the version
Sub-D Variations
  • Standard Versions: 9 to 50 pins, suitable for 3A per pin.
  • High Current Versions: Continuous use with 6A per pin, short-term up to 10A per pin.
  • High Density Versions: More pins in the same shell size, 26 to 78 pins.
  • Mixed Power and Coaxial Versions: High power pins (up to 20A per pin) and coaxial pins.
Applications and Components
Sub-D connectors are used for signal connections and low current applications. Allectra offers components like air side connectors, feedthroughs, vacuum side connectors, pins, housings, and cables. Sub-D feedthroughs are available on CF, KF, and ISO-K flanges.
General Recommendations
For optimal performance, use Allectra's high vacuum or ultra-high vacuum connectors on the vacuum side. Select appropriate cables and connectors for high current versions.
General Specifications
High Current Sub-D feedthroughs are specified for HV and UHV environments with leak rates of 5x10-10 mbar-l/s for UHV and <1x10-9 mbar-l/s for HV. Compatible connectors, pins, and cables are crucial for high current applications.
High Current Sub-D Feedthroughs
Available on CF and KF/ISO flanges, with options for single or multiple feedthroughs. Custom configurations are advised. Compatible with standard versions but require specific high current components.

Procedures
  • Gender Changers: Available for air and vacuum sides, ensuring 1:1 connection with feedthroughs.
  • Crimp Pins: Offered in standard, high current, and small versions, suitable for various wire diameters.
  • Thermocouple Feedthroughs: Designed for various thermocouple types, minimal measurement error.
Standards and Compliance
Connectors comply with DIN 41652 part 2 and MIL-C-24308 standards. High-density connectors tested for 500V DC and 3A per pin.
Recommendations
For high accuracy temperature measurements, use Platinum Resistance Thermometers (PT100). Welding Sub-D feedthroughs requires expertise.

SUB D FEEDTHROUGHS-2

SUB-D OVERVIEW [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] The Sub-miniature-D connector system was developed in in 1952 by ITT Canon. The name comes from the DShape of the housing around the pin arrangement. It was the major connector for computer peripheral connections and is widely used for industrial applications. There are several variations available: 4 Power High Voltage - The Standard Design with 9 / 15 / 25 / 37 / 50 Pins (pages 1.4- 1.7) These sizes also define the shell sizes A (15-pin) to E (9pin) for the other versions. As the name system is not straight forward,...

4 Power High Voltage Useable connectors: On the air side, all standard connectors can be used. The only limitation we know are exotic housing designs. On the vacuum side, the use of High Vacuum or Ultra High Vacuum connectors supplied from Allectra is assumed. High Density connectors with 15*), 26, 44 and 68*) pins have a different pin layout on air and vacuum side. So here the air side connectors cannot be used on the vacuum side. *) not yet offered All components for the vacuum side: - Flange with feedthrough - Crimp pins - UHV compatible connector (front and back part) - Screws for connector...
