For Harsh Environments, Commercial and Industrial

Over-Molded Cables | Receptacles | Field Wireables | Accessories

The original U.S. Department of Defense circular connectors were developed in the 1930s for severe aeronautical and tactical service
applications. These early connectors were referred to as “Type AN” (Army-Navy). This series set the standard for modern military
circular connectors. Today, these connectors are often called Military Standard, “MIL-STD”, “MIL-SPEC”, “MIL-EQUAL” or “MIL-EQUIV”
connectors. They are commonly used in aerospace, industrial, marine, commercial, and automotive applications.

As a result of their acknowledged ruggedness and durability, they have become widely accepted in industrial applications. Mencom
has designed, and now offers an Industrial Equivalent, to the MIL-Spec 5015 connector series, in order to meet the strong demand
from various industries.

• Motorized Conveyors

• Factory automation

5015 Industrial MIL-SPEC EquivalentApplications

Mencom MIL-Spec circular connectors include completely over-molded
cord sets and pre-wired & epoxied panel mount receptacles. This plug and

play design simplies the installation for the user and eliminates the risk

of incorrectly wiring the connector. The same size connector may offer a
choice of contact sizes and arrangements that allow for power, signal, or

combinations of both to perfectly t your application.

The end-user no longer has to assemble the connectors or mess around

with soldering, unless they prefer our eld installable version. The standard

connectors are provided with the familiar North American Color Codes

recognized in the industrial market, but customer specic cables and color

codes are possible upon request.
