Guide to Selecting a Connector
In selecting a connector, it first must bedetermined if a non-environmental 97A or B Series 5015 type is required or ifan environmental MS-5015 Class E, F,or R type* is required.If determined that the general duty,non-environmental 97 series is thechoice - then this catalog is appropriateto your needs
The following 8 steps apply to for-mulation of a part number.**
How many wires are yougoing to connect?What gauge?
These two questions are important,because they indicate which insert youneed. There are literally hundreds tochoose from.
The insert arrangements for soldercontact connectors are illustrated onpages 6-11. The inserts most oftenused are highlighted on these pages.
Here’s an example of how to choosean insert arrangement. Say you want toconnect eight 16-ga. wires, - first findthe section of arrangements contain-ing 8 contacts. Insert number 20-7 isthe one you want because it containseight 16-ga. contacts and it is one ofthe most often used. The one youchoose might depend on your space orvoltage requirements. The voltagecapacity of each insert is listed underits diagram.
If you have more than one wire sizeto connect, the method is essentiallythe same. Actually, the insert configu-rations for multiple-size wires are a lotmore flexible than they appear. That’sbecause you can always solder asmaller wire to a larger contact. How-ever, soldering a large wire to a smallcontact isn’t recommended because ofsize and current requirements.
What if several identicalconnectors have different functions?
Here’s a situation to watch out for. Youhave four identical receptacles on apanel. One carries high current loads.
The others have low current functions.A plug mated with the wrong receptacle(cross-mating) could ruin your valu-able equipment.
To avoid cross-mating, you canorder identical inserts positioned inboth the plugs and receptacles at vari-ous angles from standard. These varia-tions from standard position are calledalternate insert positions, and aredescribed on page 12.
What kind of receptacle do you need?
For Wall Mounting Use a wall recep-tacle, type 3100. The elongated back ofthis receptacle extends through thickwall material. It is threaded to acceptstandard hardware fittings.For Unmounted Applications Usethe cable receptacle, type 3101.For Box or Panel Mounting Use thebox receptacle, type 3102. This recep-tacle’s back is short to conserve space.It is not threaded on the back end andis used when no accessories such asclamps are needed.
What kind of plug do you need?
For ordinary situations The straightplug, type 3106 meets most connectorrequirements. However . . .when space is critical you may wantto consider using an angle plug, type3108. This type plug lets the cableenter your equipment at a right angle.
Do you need a plug with a Solid or Split back shell?
You can get both straight and angleplugs in solid or split back shelldesigns. With the solid shell you havegreater strength and you save space.On the other hand, the split shelldesign lets you quickly inspect the sol-der terminals when you need to. Thisfeature could be important if you’ll besubjecting the connector to rough han-dling and heavy use.
The designation to use for solidshell construction is the letter A. Thisdesignation letter goes immediately
after the main shell type number: forexample, 3106A or 3108A.The designation for split shell construc-tion is the letter B; for example, 3106Bor 3108B.
Because of application, receptaclesare made in solid backshell construc-tion only. Their designation is 3100A,3101A. (See how to order for soldercontact connectors, page 19.
Which connector gets the socket? - the receptacle or the plug?
You’re at the point where you desig-nate which inserts are used with whichshells. Either pin or socket inserts canbe used with plugs or receptacles.
Here’s a good rule of thumb. Orderthe sockets for the connector at the“hot” side of the circuit. By having sock-ets at the power source, there’s littlechance that a wayward finger or screw-driver will short the circuit or cause per-sonal injury.
The designation for sockets is sim-ply S in a part number, following theinsert code number. For pins, the des-ignation is P. Therefore, the 20-7Pinsert would have pin contacts, whilethe 20-7S insert would have socketcontacts.
What type of plating is pre-ferred?
If you prefer the standard olive cad-mium, non-reflective, electrically con-ductive finish, then no suffix number isrequired. Other plating variations areavailable, including environmentallyfriendly zinc alloy. See how to orderinstructions for the various plating fin-ishes offered for 97 Series solder con-nectors on page 19.
Do you need anyaccessories?
Accessories - cable clamps, protectioncaps and chains, conduit adapters, andpanel gaskets are shown on pages 33-39.
* If an environmental type MIL-5015 E, F or R Class is required, then thecatalog that should be consulted is 12-020, MS/Standard MIL-5015Cylindrical Connectors. See www.amphenol-industrial.com for on-linecatalogs or contact Amphenol, Sidney, NY.
** These steps are for solder type connectors which are described indetail on pages 3-19. If a crimp type connector is needed, the samesteps apply, however, you should consult pages 20-29 for details on 97Series connectors with crimp contacts.

Potting (438 Construction)Potting constructions actually exceed the Type “E” requirements ofmilitary specifications for moisture-proof connectors. These con-structions replace the back shell completely with a lightweightthreaded retainer ring permanently staked to the shell.
To seal the back of the connector, potting compound is injected intoan expendable polyethylene potting form and allowed to cure orset. When the form is removed, the resilient hemispherical shapedinsulation extends well into the connector. It forms a chemical bondto the inner and outer walls of the plug, to the back of the insert,around the soldered connections and well out along the leads.
Not only is the back shell eliminated, but also the cable clamp. Thesolder joints are completely and individually protected by the resil-ient mass which surrounds them and resists transmittal of vibrationto the soldered connections. The completed assembly is not onlymoisture-proof, but also pressurized and resistant to salt water, air-craft lubricating oil and jet fuels.
Expendable Potting FormsFor companies not using their own potting molds, expendable poly-ethylene forms can be provided. These expendable forms need notreatment before use. Though designed to be discarded, they canbe left on assemblies after potting. Nylon potting forms to be leftpermanently on the assembly are also available. These forms aresupplied with construction (824) and (871).
How to OrderTo order connectors in constructions for potting, use the standardMS nomenclature (MS3100A, MS3101A, and MS3106A construc-tions are available), but substitute “97” for “MS”, drop the “A” suffixfor type of back shell, and add the application deviation (XXX) asshown on the chart. Example: 97-3106-28-16S (438).

Amphenol® MS/Standard MIL-5015 Connectors
MS/Standard MIL-5015 Type ConnectorsAmphenol has long been the accepted leader in providing MS/StandardMIL-5015 type connectors. When a Mil-Spec 5015 connector isrequired, these connectors provide well-proven electrical capability.They are tested to strict adherence to military specifications, and theyare offered in a very broad range of product styles and options. Featuresinclude:
• medium to heavy weight cylindrical with resilient inserts• environmental resistant• threaded couplings, single key/keyway shell polarization• operating voltage to 3000 VAC (RMS) at sea level• 5 shell styles, 19 shell sizes, 280 contact arrangements• solder or crimp contacts (non-rear-release type),
Within the MS/Standard family there are five mil-spec classes to meetdifferent requirements:
A – Solid Shell – for general, non-environmental applications.C – Pressurized – for use on pressurized bulkheads or pressure barri-
ers; limits air leakage regardless of type and class of plug matedwith them.
E/F – Environmental Resisting with Strain Relief – designed for applications where the connector will be exposed tomoisture, vibration, and rapid changes in pressure and temperature.
R – Lightweight Environmental Resisting – shorter in length, lighter in weight than the E & F classes, the MS-R offersa high degree of reliability under adverse conditions: recommended for new design applications.
See online (www.amphenol-industrial.com) or ask for Amphenol catalog 12-020 which gives detailed information onthis family of connectors.

Amphe-PowerTM 5015 ConnectorsAmphenol offers the MIL-5015 connector family that can be enhancedwith high amperage RADSOK® contacts. They use the AC threaded shells which are a MIL-5015 type.Design characteristics of the Amphe-Power 5015 connectors are:• The RADSOK contact handles up to 150% higher amperages than standard
contacts• The RADSOK contact has a twisted hyperbolic, stamped grid configuration
within the socket. This design ensures a large, coaxial, face-to-face surface area engagement. As male pin is inserted, axial members in the female half deflect, imparting high current flow across the connection with minimal voltage loss.
• Contact arrangements have RADSOK sockets in sizes 0, 4 and 8 with standard contacts in sizes 16 and 12.The contacts available in RADSOK and the amperages are as follows:
• Size 8 AWG can handle currents up to 69 amps.• Size 4 AWG can handle currents up to 120 amps.• Size 0 AWG can handle currents up to 250 amps.• For availability of size 12 RADSOK that handles currents
up to 35 amps, consult Amphenol.)
The RADSOK design - socket cylinder within female contact has twisted hyperbolic grid.
Provides higher amperage capa-bilities with low insertion force and low temperature rise.
• AC threaded 5015 styles include: solid shell for general, non-environmental applications; pressurized style for use on pressurized bulkheads or pressure barriers; environmental resisting style with strain relief; lighter weight and shorter environmental resisting style
