WTAV14PD9SYL

Overview

The WTAV14PD9SYL is a rectangular MIL-Spec connector from the AirBorn W Series, manufactured by Molex. It features a straight plug configuration with board mount installation and through-hole termination. The component provides 14 positions in a dual-row arrangement with male pin contacts. Electrical ratings include a current capacity of 5 A and a voltage rating of 1 kV. The housing is constructed from Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS), while contacts are gold-plated copper alloy. It operates within a temperature range of -65 C to +125 C, maintains an insulation resistance of 5 GOhms, and utilizes a 2.54 mm pitch.

Feature Summary

• Complies with MIL-DTL-55302 military specifications for high-reliability interconnects
• Utilizes Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) housing material for thermal stability
• Features gold-plated copper alloy contacts for corrosion resistance
• Supports vertical through-hole soldering for secure PCB attachment

Applications

• Military aerospace electronic systems
• Defense communication equipment
• Space sector instrumentation

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix SYL against official Molex/AirBorn documentation to confirm plating thickness and environmental sealing characteristics. Confirm RoHS compliance status directly with the manufacturer as regulatory requirements may vary by production batch. Ensure mating connectors match the W Series pin/socket orientation standards. Request current lead times and factory order requirements directly from authorized distributors or the manufacturer.

Selection Notes

Select this part for applications requiring a 14-position, two-row straight plug with through-hole termination. Verify that the 5 A current rating and 1 kV voltage withstand capability meet circuit requirements. Ensure the operating environment falls within the specified -65 C to +125 C temperature range. Confirm compatibility with existing MIL-DTL-55302 receptacles in the assembly design.

Part Context
