71-432194-15S

Overview

The 71-432194-15S is a circular MIL-spec connector manufactured by Amphenol Aerospace Operations. It functions as a plug receptacle within the PT05 series, designed for secure interconnection in demanding environments. The component features a size 15 shell and utilizes a cable mount configuration with a strain relief mechanism to ensure mechanical stability. It complies with environmental standards including EAR99 classification, indicating suitability for general commercial aerospace applications where specific export controls do not apply.

Feature Summary

• Circular MIL-spec design for robust signal and power transmission
• Cable mount construction with integrated strain relief
• Size 15 shell configuration for standardized interface compatibility

Applications

• Commercial aerospace avionics systems
• Aircraft airframe power distribution
• Harsh environment instrumentation connections

Procurement Notes

Verify the exact mating counterpart and contact arrangement before procurement. Confirm that the EAR99 classification aligns with your organization's export compliance requirements. Ensure the cable mount orientation matches the assembly design constraints. Cross-reference the shell size and thread type with existing system interfaces to guarantee physical compatibility.

Selection Notes

Select this component when a circular MIL-spec plug is required for cable-mounted installations. The size 15 designation dictates the physical footprint and contact density. Consider the environmental sealing requirements and operating temperature range relative to the specific application zone. Verify that the strain relief type accommodates the cable diameter used in the harness.

Part Context

This part belongs to the PT05 series of circular connectors from Amphenol Aerospace Operations. The series is engineered for commercial aerospace markets, focusing on weight reduction and simplified installation. These connectors support various interconnect needs across aircraft systems, providing reliable performance in vibration-prone and thermally variable conditions typical of modern aviation platforms.

Replacement Considerations

Check for direct cross-references under the MS17343 naming convention or equivalent MIL-C-26482 variants. Ensure any substitute maintains the same shell size, mounting style, and environmental rating. Verify pinout continuity if replacing an existing assembly to avoid rewiring efforts.
