Housing-to-housing connectivity is assured using a center coupling screw, which may be a simple alignment feature or a multi-keyed jack screw and nut. Modules are made out of ULTEM, a rugged Polyethermide plastic which is highly resistive to chemicals, stable through temperature and humidity variation, and with FAA FAR25 approved flammability and toxicity characteristics. Internally, stainless steel retaining clips ensure reliable locking under all operating conditions. Modules are rear insert, allowing cabling to be accomplished separately from panel mounting.
Each module may have an environmental rear seal of silicone elastomer, which is bonded to the housing using APCD’s proprietary Epoxy sealant, proven superior in over 30 years use in the M81714 military module market. An interfacial seal front seal provides module to module sealing when mated, ensuring IP67 level performance. Typical applications include wing actuators, power generation and control, Ethernet distribution networks, electronic load management systems, and galleys.
