Overview - EN 4644-201:2015 (Locking and polarizing hardware)
EN 4644-201:2015 is a European product standard in the EN 4644 aerospace connector series. It specifies the central coupling mechanism (locking and polarizing hardware) for size 2 disconnect housings used with modular rectangular electrical and optical connectors with rectangular inserts rated for continuous operating temperatures of 175 °C (or 125 °C). The document is part of the ASD‑STAN / CEN body of standards for aerospace electrical equipment and plug-and-socket devices.
Key topics and requirements
- Scope: Central coupling mechanism for size 2 disconnect housing within the EN 4644 modular rectangular connector family.
- Hardware types covered: Centre coupling screw and nut (including fixing nut) used for coupling and polarization.
- Dimensional specification: Detailed centre coupling screw and centre coupling nut dimensions are provided (see figures in the standard).
- Mass limit: All locking and polarizing hardware items have a maximum mass of 20 g.
- Designation example: The standard provides a designation convention (e.g., EN 4644-201MS) indicating standard number, material type (M = metallic), and polarizing type (S = centre coupling screw; N = centre coupling nut).
- Marking: No marking is required on the centre coupling mechanism.
- Technical specification linkage: For full connector technical requirements, EN 4644-001 (Part 001: Technical specification) is referenced and must be used in conjunction.
Practical applications and users
Who uses EN 4644-201:
- Aerospace connector designers and manufacturers specifying locking and polarizing hardware for high-temperature modular rectangular connectors.
- Procurement and quality teams ensuring component compliance and interchangeability within the EN 4644 connector family.
- Systems and avionics engineers selecting ruggedized electrical and optical connectors for aircraft and aerospace platforms operating at elevated temperatures.
- Test laboratories and certification bodies validating connector hardware to EN 4644 series requirements.
- Maintenance and repair organizations needing correct replacement parts and designation information.
Practical benefits:
- Ensures mechanical compatibility and polarization across modular connector assemblies.
- Simplifies supplier communication and procurement through standardized designations.
- Reduces design risk by referencing standardized dimensions and mass limits.
