Overview

EN 3646-011:2006 is a European standard published by CEN that specifies the product requirements for dummy receptacles within the aerospace series of circular electrical connectors featuring bayonet coupling. These connectors are engineered for high-performance applications, operating continuously at elevated temperatures of 175 °C or 200 °C. The standard specifically addresses dummy receptacles designed to fit within this connector family and operable over a wide temperature range from -65 °C to 175 °C or 200 °C. It ensures uniformity, reliability, and compatibility in aerospace electrical systems where these connectors are used.

Key Topics

  • Scope and Application: Defines the characteristics and dimensions of dummy receptacles compatible with bayonet coupling circular connectors, vital for ensuring correct panel mounting and system integrity in harsh aerospace environments.
  • Temperature Rating: Certified for continuous operation at extreme temperatures (up to 200 °C), meeting the thermal resilience demands of aerospace electrical systems.
  • Design and Dimensions: Standardized sizes and tolerances for dummy receptacles, including panel cut-out recommendations, ensure seamless integration with plugs and mating connectors as described in related standards.
  • Material Specifications: Defines materials and surface treatments, such as black anodized aluminum alloy, nickel-plated aluminum alloy, and olive green cadmium plated aluminum alloy, to meet mechanical durability and corrosion resistance requirements.
  • Marking Requirements: Guidelines for product and packaging markings include manufacturer part numbers, manufacturing dates, and trademarks for traceability and quality assurance.
  • Related Standards: Normative references and cross-references to EN 3646-001, EN 3646-002, and EN 3646-008 provide comprehensive technical specifications, performance criteria, and plug definitions, ensuring system compatibility.

Applications

EN 3646-011:2006 dummy receptacles are widely used in the aerospace industry to:

  • Provide electrical connector placeholders or blanks in systems requiring bayonet-coupled circular connectors that operate under extreme temperature conditions.
  • Facilitate maintenance and diagnostic processes by safely capping unused connector positions while preserving environmental sealing and mechanical protection.
  • Support the design and manufacture of aerospace electrical harnesses in aircraft, spacecraft, and related high-reliability environments.
  • Ensure safety and equipment reliability in applications exposed to rapid temperature changes, vibration, and aggressive environmental factors typical of aerospace conditions.

Related Standards

  • EN 3646-001: Technical specifications covering general requirements for the aerospace series connectors operating at 175 °C or 200 °C.
  • EN 3646-002: Performance specifications and contact arrangement details for bayonet coupling circular connectors in aerospace applications.
  • EN 3646-008: Defines plug product standards compatible with dummy receptacles described in EN 3646-011.

Adherence to EN 3646-011:2006, alongside its related standards, ensures aerospace connectors meet stringent European aerospace industry requirements for electrical and mechanical performance under elevated temperature conditions.
