19 August 2011
Fast, reliable turn around on Amphenol, Souriau parts; new microsite www.ttieurope/38999
TTI, Inc., the global distributor of passive, interconnect, relay & switch and discrete components, has announced that its new European connector assembly facility is now QPL-approved to build Amphenol 38999 connectors. As detailed in a new microsite, www.ttieurope.com/38999, the company offers fast delivery on low volume and prototype order quantities, and is also able to satisfy scheduled volume business.
TTI opened its facility near Munich, Germany last November, mirroring its well-established US facility which performs over 30,000 circular connector assembly operations per day with a defect rate of less then 25ppm. The company’s new European operation is QPL-approved for Amphenol’s MIL-DTL38999 Series I and III, and SJT circular connectors, offering all shell sizes, layouts types in cadmium olive drab and electroless nickel plated finishes. TTI also offers all required connector accessories including, backshells/adapters, boots, contacts, terminals, and heat shrink tubing.
Comments Ros Kruger, Marketing Director, Europe – Military, Aero and Space, TTI, Inc.: “By investing in modern tooling we have been able to reduce assembly time and our operators have been trained by Amphenol Socapex and our experienced North American team so we can guarantee the highest quality levels. TTI’s stocking policy enables us to offer all shell types and layouts for Series I and III, SJTs for PC tail, power, signal and coax contacts. Our new microsite, www.ttieurope.com/38999, details our capabilities and product offerings and has a comprehensive part number search engine to help you find the parts you need and on-line data-sheets.”
TTI has also announced that its new European connector assembly facility can now assemble Series I and Series III 38999 circular connectors from Souriau, the manufacturer of high reliability interconnect solutions for severe environments such as the Aerospace, Defense / Space, Heavy Industry (Railway & Mass Transit, Nuclear, Oil & Gas) and Industrial Equipment markets.
Souriau’s 8D 38999 Series III family, the screw-coupled version of MIL-C-38999, is targeted at extreme environments. Devices feature: a high contact density of up to 128 contacts (#22D); quick screw coupling with self-locking mechanism; and a high resistance to harsh environments.
Souriau’s 8LT product family is qualified in accordance to MIL-DTL-38999 Series I. Originally designed to meet the high performance needs of the aerospace industries & military applications, it is also now used in varied applications needing extremely reliable interconnections with high density contact arrangements in a miniature circular shell.
Comments Ros Kruger, Industry Marketing Director, Europe – Military, Aero and Space, TTI, Inc.: “Having the European connector assembly facility means that we can offer our customers a very fast turn-around on these items. We match the quality of our manufacturing partners, such as Souriau, with a commitment to excellence at our facility outside Munich so our customers can be assured that their hi-rel applications are using the very best interconnection solution. TTI will not only be assembling the popular Aluminium Nickel and Olive Drab Cadmium plating types (F/W) but also Green Zinc Cobalt (ZC) and the new Black Zinc Nickel (Z) products to comply with the latest RoHS directives. Black Zinc Nickel types can be guaranteed to offer the same electrical and physical characteristics as the cadmium solution, particularly in terms of salt spray resistance (500 hours). Additionally, RoHS Zinc Nickel 38999 connectors can be mated with cadmium devices without generating a galvanic couple - the same is true of accessories such as adaptors.”
In the near future, TTI will also be supporting the Stainless Steel firewall (K/S) and Composite (M/J) shells from Souriau too.
