Product catalog summary
Technical Specifications
The MIL-DTL-38999 Series III filtered connectors are designed for high-density applications, offering configurations with shell sizes ranging from 9 to 25. They are built to withstand 500 mating cycles and operate in temperatures from -55°C to 125°C. The connectors feature quick mating, tri-start, self-locking couplings, and are available with platings that endure 500-hour salt-spray exposure. These connectors are suitable for EMI/RFI reduction in noise-sensitive applications such as avionics and communications.

Filter Performance
The connectors offer various filter types, including C, L, T, and Pi-type filters, which are optimized for specific frequency, voltage, and impedance requirements. The Pi filter provides superior high-frequency performance compared to the C filter due to its sharper roll-off.

Electrical Ratings and Capacitance Codes
The maximum operating voltage for Pi and C filters is 200VDC, with a current rating of at least 3.0 amps. The capacitance codes range from 53 pF to 18,000 pF, with attenuation minimums specified per MIL-STD-220.

Part Number Configuration
Part numbers are configured based on shell size, contact style, insert arrangements, class, shell type, series, polarization, termination type, filter type, and capacitance code.

Insert and Shell Arrangements
Various shell and insert arrangements are available, with specific service ratings and total contact numbers detailed in the document. Custom shells and inserts can be discussed with Cooper Interconnect.

Mechanical Drawings
Detailed mechanical drawings for box-mount and jam-nut configurations are provided, specifying dimensions and thread types for each shell size.

Insert and Contact Ratings
The document outlines suggested operating voltages and test voltages at various altitudes for different service ratings. Recommended contact ratings are provided for various wire sizes.

Polarization Tables
Polarization tables specify keyway ID letters and corresponding angular positions for different shell sizes.

For further customization and specifications, Cooper Interconnect can be contacted directly.

Electrical Ratings and Capacitance Codes The C lter is a low inductance, feed-thru capacitor. It is used to attenuate high-frequency signals. The Pi lter consists of two capacitive elements and one inductive element. The Pi Filter provides better high-frequency performance than the C lter due to sharper roll-o and is designed for high source and load impedances.
