Product catalog summary
Overview
This document provides comprehensive information on LEMO's high voltage single contact connectors, specifically the Y, S, E, and 05 series. LEMO is renowned for its circular Push-Pull connectors, offering a wide range of configurations suitable for medical, telecommunications, and military applications.
Connector Features
LEMO connectors are distinguished by their precision and modular design, featuring a Push-Pull self-latching system for secure connections resistant to vibration and shock. They are UL recognized and RoHS compliant, ensuring safety and environmental standards are met.
Y Series Connectors
Designed for high voltage applications, the Y series connectors operate between 5 to 50 kV. They offer a favorable size-to-voltage ratio and use materials like PEEK and silicone rubber for insulation. Models vary in features such as safety locking rings and watertight or vacuumtight capabilities.
Technical Specifications
The document details technical characteristics including endurance, humidity resistance, operating temperature range, and protection index. Connectors are designed for over 1000 mating cycles with high insulation resistance. Specific models are detailed with voltage ratings and material compositions.
Materials and Treatments
Components are made from materials such as brass, beryllium copper, and special bronze, with surface treatments including chrome, nickel, and gold plating. Insulators are made from PTFE, PEEK, and silicone rubber.
Applications and Recommendations
Recommended cables for different models are specified, including color, standard, and outer diameter. These connectors are ideal for high voltage applications in scientific research, particularly in nuclear research environments.
Conclusion
LEMO's high voltage connectors provide reliable and secure solutions for demanding applications, emphasizing safety, durability, and compliance with international standards.
Specifications and Procedures
1. Ensure the contact is correctly positioned and secure by gently pulling it. Wrap the drain wire around the shell crimp back end.
2. Slide the crimp ferrule over the cable shield until it rests against the connector shell and crimp using the LEMO crimping tool DPH.99.005.2K.
Safety Instructions
1. Shock and Fire Hazard: Incorrect wiring, damaged components, or foreign objects can cause short circuits and electric shock. Never disconnect mated components while live.
2. Handling: Inspect connectors for damage before installation. Only trained personnel should perform assembly using proper tools.
3. Use: Connectors with exposed contacts should not be live. Voltages above 30 VAC and 42 VDC are hazardous.
4. Test and Operating Voltages: Maximum operating voltage depends on standards. Test voltage is 75% of the mean breakdown voltage.
5. CE Marking: Indicates compliance with European safety directives, applicable to complete products, not components.

Y series (HV single contact) This family of single contact connectors are high voltage connectors designed for operating voltages ranging from 5 to 50 kV. They offer a great deal of security. The long housing permits a mechanical mating long before the contacts are engaged, thus ensuring safe mating. Furthermore, the socket in the series 3Y can be provided with a microswitch to prevent power from being turned on before the plug is mated.

Requirements in the field of nuclear research have given LEMO the opportunity to design a new generation of high voltage unipole connector in this Y series. They are mainly characterized by their extremely favourable size/test voltage ratio. The use of insulating material such as PEEK and silicone rubber in a new design of insulators allows to propose connectors withstanding up to 52 kVDC in the 3Y series.
