High Voltage 05, 5G and REDLE K-S Series - Lemo

® ®5G Series ConnectorsHigh voltage cylindrical connectors of the new 5G serieshave been specifically developed to meet the requirementsof the “ATLAS” experimental nuclear research programmeat the CERN.The 5G series contains 50 miniature HV 12kV d.c. (testvoltage) contacts. These crimp contacts are removablefrom the shell and are inserted in a PEEK insulator. Thesame HV contacts are used in the 05 series.The actual mating is provided by the LEMO Push-Pullsystem, renowned for its reliability worldwide and a redsafety nut to secure the connection.Two keying alternative (code R or W) are available.The compact design of these connectors makes themideal for applications where minimal mass and spacesaving are critical factors.InterconnectionsStraight plugFixed socketDANGERDANGERFGPHLEMO’s Push-Pull Self-Latching Connecting SystemThis self-latching system is renowned worldwide for its easy and quick mating and unmating features. It provides absolutesecurity against vibration, shock or pull on the cable, and facilitates operation in a very limited space.DANGERDANGERThe LEMO self-latching system allows the connectorto be mated by simply pushing the plug axially into thesocket.Once firmly latched, connection cannot be broken bypulling on the cable or any other component part otherthan the outer release sleeve.When required, the connector is disengaged by asingle axial pull on the outer release sleeve. This firstdisengages the latches and then withdraws the plugfrom the socket.For added security a safety nut (shown in red) canprevent disengagement by blocking the motion of theouter release sleeve.8
