used. When using wires which do not cor-
respond to these specifications the wire dia-
meters and outer dimensions of the insulation
indicated in below table have to be adhered to.
The connectors are designed for individual
wiring. Spray water and moisture resistance are
only guaranteed if wires according to MIL-W-
5086, LN 9251 (for AWG diameters), TL 6145-

In the table on pages 7 – 14 the contact arran-
gements are listed by shell sizes. The shell size
and the contact arrangement number are given
in the designation printed in bold typefaces: the
digits following the dash are the contact arran-
gement number (see Part Number Explanation
on page 5).
Alternate Insert Positions
Alternate insert positions can be offered to prevent
mismating of adjacent identic connectors.
Contact Arrangements
The standard insert position is without designa-
tion. The four alternate positions are designated
W, X, Y and Z (see diagram below).
Furthermore, the number of contacts and the
AWG wire sizes are included in the table. The
recommended wire sizes are shown on this page,
the electrical data on page 4.
Please note:
All MS qualified insert positions are listed on
pages 7 – 14. Other positions than normal are
not available from stock.
