Overview
SIST EN 3660-008:2010 is part of the Aerospace series of European standards, specifying cable outlet accessories for electrical and optical connectors. This standard focuses on self-locking, style C, 45° angled, shielded (cone grounding), unsealed cable outlets with clamp strain relief, which are essential for ensuring reliable cable terminations in demanding aerospace environments. The outlined cable outlets facilitate the termination of individual and/or overall cable screens within a thickness range of 0.8 mm to 4.8 mm, making them versatile for a range of aerospace connector applications.
Key Topics
- Self-Locking Mechanism: Provides anti-decoupling features to maintain stable, secure connections even under vibration or mechanical stress.
- 45° Angled Outlet, Style C: Enables efficient cable routing in confined or complex installation areas.
- Shielded (Cone Grounding): Enhances electromagnetic compatibility by enabling grounding of cable screens, supporting signal integrity and protection against interference.
- Unsealed Design with Clamp Strain Relief: Offers mechanical support and strain relief for cables but is not intended for fully sealed applications.
- Material and Finishes:
- Class N: Aluminum with electroless nickel finish
- Class W: Aluminum with olive drab cadmium plate
- Class K: Stainless steel, passivated finish
- Temperature Classifications:
- Class N: -65°C to 200°C
- Class W: -65°C to 175°C
- Class K: -65°C to 260°C
- Compatibility: Designed for use with connectors specified in EN 3660-002, ensuring interoperability within aerospace systems.
Applications
These cable outlet accessories are primarily intended for:
- Aerospace Systems: Utilized in aircraft wiring harnesses and avionics systems where high reliability, shielding, and mechanical strain relief are critical.
- Military and Defense Equipment: Suitable for mission-critical systems requiring robust connector accessories capable of withstanding extreme environmental conditions and mechanical stress.
- Electrical and Optical Network Integration: Used in environments where both electrical and optical signal integrity and electromagnetic shielding are essential.
- Equipment with High Vibration Exposure: The self-locking, anti-decoupling design is particularly valuable where persistent vibration might otherwise compromise connection stability.
Key practical benefits include improved electromagnetic compatibility, robust mechanical connection, and consistent performance across a wide temperature range.
