55/0224-22-0/9

Overview

The TE Connectivity Aerospace, Defense and Marine part number 55/0224-22-0/9 is a multi-conductor cable designed for specialized applications. It features two conductors with a wire gauge of 22 AWG. The conductor material consists of nickel-aluminum alloy with chromium plating, utilizing a stranded configuration of 7/30 strands. Insulation is provided by ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE). The cable includes a braided shield made of tinned copper, offering an 85% coverage rate. The outer jacket is also constructed from ETFE and is white in color. Key dimensional specifications include a jacket diameter of 0.159 inches (4.04 mm) and a thickness of 0.0120 inches (0.305 mm). The component is rated for operation up to 150°C.

Feature Summary

• Constructed with nickel-aluminum alloy conductors insulated with ETFE for high-temperature stability.
• Features a tinned copper braided shield providing electromagnetic interference protection.
• Utilizes ETFE for both insulation and outer jacketing to ensure chemical and thermal resistance.

Applications

• Thermocouple wiring
• Aerospace interconnect systems
• Defense electronic assemblies

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific manufacturer part number against official TE Connectivity documentation to confirm compatibility. Ensure that the nickel-aluminum alloy conductor composition meets the electrical requirements of the target thermocouple circuit. Confirm that the ETFE insulation rating aligns with the maximum operating temperature of the installation environment. Cross-reference shielding coverage specifications with system noise immunity standards before finalizing procurement.

Selection Notes
