LEMO announces the expansion of its field-proven M-Series connectors with a new HY vacuum-sealed model, available in a variety of sizes and contact configurations. This new fixed socket model is designed for applications that require a vacuum-tight environment in harsh environments.
Thanks to innovative potting materials, the new HY models are capable of vacuum sealing with ultra-low leak rates over a wider temperature range. At the same time, the tail end of the PCB is optimized, and even the high-density contact configuration can make PCB routing easier. The ground pins have also been improved and can now be secured using standard ground pins or special anti-vibration threaded holes.
This new addition to the M product family offers the highest density ratchet coupling connectors for customers requiring vacuum-tight integration. Ultra-low leak rates combined with a wide temperature range allow for unmatched performance in optical terminal enclosures or high-altitude applications.
