Model 176A07 High Temperature Pressure Sensors
PCB manufactures high temperature and cryogenic pressure sensors for rocket motor and gas turbine testing. When mounted to an engine combustor, the hazardous area certified 176A07 dynamic pressure sensor provides continuous reliable combustion dynamics data monitoring to help control instability, which can damage components in the combustion chamber and downstream equipment.
Model 66162ANZ1 Two-Wire ICP® Embeddable Accelerometers
PCB’s 66162ANZ1 accelerometer includes built-in signal conditioning microelectronics for straightforward operation and seamless connectivity to data acquisition systems. Applications for vibration and shock measurements to 5,000 g include shock and impact detection of packages or components and bearing and gear mesh vibration measurements for predictive maintenance and condition monitoring.
Model 72 Endevco Surface Mount High Shock Sensors
The Endevco model 72 series are low mass accelerometers suitable for SMT mounting. The accelerometers are intended to be used in a wide range of acceleration, vibration, and shock applications from 2,000 to 60,000 g's. They are ideally suited for embeddable on-board shock recorders, and for ordnance fuze, safe and arm applications. This accelerometer is ideal for measuring long duration shocks.
Model 8530BM8 and 8530BM9 Endevco Miniature Piezoresistive Blast Pressure Sensors
Endevco miniature piezoresistive blast pressure sensor models 8530BM8 and 8530BM9 feature fast rise times for shock wave and blast pressure measurements. They have a high output for excellent signal-to-noise ratio and measure both static and dynamic pressure. Endevco pressure sensors feature excellent linearity, high shock resistance, and high stability during temperature transients up to 200°F.
Model EX357E92 High Temperature Charge Mode Accelerometers
PCB Piezotronics model EX357E92 is a hazardous area certified accelerometer for vibration testing of aircraft gas turbine engines, industrial turbines, rocket propulsion systems, and exhaust systems. UHT-12™ is a proprietary crystal designed for more accurate, lower noise measurements at elevated temperatures without pyroelectric noise spikes (up to 1400 °F).
MOV - Metal Oxide Varistor Connectors
Offer the versatility of a standard connector with transient protection for sensitive circuits. Internal housing of the MOV sleeve offers weight and space savings over other protection methods available today and eliminates costly and bulky exterior suppression mechanisms in appropriate situations. Sleeves are presently available in contact sizes 22, 20, and 16.
MPO Field
Amphenol SOCAPEX’s MPO Field solution enables users to transform a standard MPO patchcord into a robust connector designed to resist the harshest environments. The MPO patchcord is integrated into a metallic plug based on MIL-STD-38999 Series III, shell size 13 Military connector, to protect it from shocks, dust and fluids. There is no requirement for field termination.
MRC (Multi-Media Ruggedized Connectors)
Micro-miniature solution ideal for communications systems running Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0/USB 3.0, HDMI, and 10 Gigabit Ethernet when specified and designated to a specific configuration.
MS-5015 Connectors
This series, qualified to SAE AS50151, is the original ruggedized harsh environment, threaded coupling, metal, power, and signal connector. With over 230 insert arrangements ranging from 1 to 85 contacts per connector and up to 150 amps possible with a standard operating temperature from -55°C to +125°C.
MS Connectors
MIL-C-5015 features threaded couplings and single key/ keyway polarization, representing maximum simplicity in design. Applications include military ground support equipment, ordnance, and shipboard installations. Amphenol Industrial Operations manufactures five classes(A/B/E/F/R) of connectors to meet different requirements.
