Overview
SIST EN 2997-008:2009 is a European standard published by CEN that defines the product requirements for plugs in the aerospace series of circular electrical connectors. These connectors are coupled by a threaded ring mechanism and are designed to be fire-resistant or non-fire-resistant. This standard focuses specifically on plugs used in aerospace applications where operating temperatures range from -65 °C to 175 °C continuous, 200 °C continuous, and peak temperatures up to 260 °C. It forms part 008 in a comprehensive series that addresses various components such as contacts, receptacles, and protective covers.
Key Topics
- Scope: Specifies characteristics, dimensions, materials, and performance requirements for circular plugs with threaded ring coupling used in aerospace electrical systems.
- Classes and Models: Defines multiple plug classes based on material (aluminium alloy, stainless steel), corrosion resistance, fire resistance, and temperature ratings, such as Class W (aluminium alloy, 175 °C) and Class KE (stainless steel, 260 °C peak).
- Dimensions and Mass: Precise plug dimensions and maximum weights for each housing size ensure compatibility and performance under aerospace conditions.
- Materials and Surface Treatments: Use of corrosion-resistant materials like cadmium-plated aluminium alloy and passivated stainless steel, with attention to salt mist resistance.
- Marking and Identification: Plugs must include a unique identity block, date of manufacture, and manufacturer’s mark for traceability and compliance verification.
- Interchangeability: Ensures plugs are compatible with associated contacts, filler plugs, rear accessories (EN 2997-002), and receptacles (EN 2997-003 to EN 2997-007), facilitating system integration.
Applications
EN 2997-008 plugs are critical components in aerospace electrical systems where reliability, fire resistance, and temperature tolerance are paramount. Typical applications include:
- Aircraft Electrical Systems: Providing secure and stable electrical connections in avionics, power distribution, and control circuits.
- Military and Defense Aerospace Equipment: Meeting stringent environmental and operational requirements for defense-grade aerospace connectors.
- Spacecraft and Satellites: Supporting electrical connectivity in extreme temperature conditions and demanding mechanical environments.
- High-Temperature Industrial Aerospace Systems: Ensuring fire-resistant connections in environments exposed to elevated temperatures or potential fire hazards.
Use of these standard plugs guarantees interchangeability, durability, and safety across a wide range of aerospace platforms and systems.
