Mencom Announces New MIL-Spec Industrial 5015 Equivalent Circular Connectors

Oakwood, GA, April 13, 2016 --(PR.com)-- The MIL-Spec 5015 series was originally designed for severe aeronautical and tactical service applications. Due to the rugged and versatile design, these connectors are widely used in a range of commercial and industrial applications, such as factory automation, robotics, instrumentation, medical equipment and power applications.

Because they are becoming more common place in industrial applications that need the ruggedness of the MIL-Spec design, but do not need the military specifications, Mencom has designed, and now offers an Industrial Equivalent, to the MIL-Spec 5015 connector series, in order to meet the strong demand from various industries.

Mencom MIL-Spec circular connectors include completely over-molded cord sets and pre-wired & epoxied panel mount receptacles. This plug and play design simplifies the installation for the user and eliminates the risk of incorrectly wiring the connector.

The end-user no longer has to assemble the connectors or mess around with soldering, unless they prefer our field installable version. The standard connectors are provided with the familiar North American Color Codes recognized in the industrial market, but customer specific cables and color codes are possible upon request.

Initial offerings:
• Size 10SL with 2 and 3 pin inserts
• Size 14S with 2, 3A, 3B, 3C, (different pin orientations) 4, 5, 6, & 7 pin inserts
• Size 16S with 2, 3A, 3B, 5, & 7 pin inserts
• Size 18 with 3, 4, 5A, 5B, 5C, 5D, 6, 10A & 10B pin inserts

Mencom MIL-Spec circular connectors are available in 4 shell sizes in 10SL, 14S, 16S and 18, which are fully intermateable with existing 5015 style connectors.

Each shell size allows for a variety of pin counts and configurations. These connectors use threaded couplings to mate and provide IP67 protection.
