Grounding of AN Series, Bendix and RF-Type Connectors to an enclosure bulkhead in a manner that will reduce the ingress or egress of EMI/RFI interference can be accomplished through the use of these connector gaskets.
Table 4 depicts the gasket dimensions for the various connector shell sizes. This table also gives the ordering part numbers for the four materials offered in Table1.
The material and physical parameters listed in Table 1 are intended as a guide in determining which product is best suited for the application for which the connector is being used. The choice of elastomer and metal combination used for grounding is dependent upon the environment in which the equipment will be operating.
Hundreds of different sizes of connector gaskets have been manufactured by MAJR and are availble upon request. We can also custom make a connector gasket to your specifications.
Design Data - Dimensional Characteristics
EMI/RFI Shielding Connector Gasket — Figure 1
Figure 1 shows an outline drawing of the typical connector gasket. The tabular dimensions for each of the standard connector gasket sizes are in Table 4.
For Connector Gaskets (D-Sub), see page 8 and substitute -03 for Multicon; -05 for Radthin.
Materials Selection
Connector gaskets can be supplied with a woven and ground aluminum wire impregnated with either neoprene or silicone.Operating environmental conditions will determine the choice between neoprene or silicone. Silicone can be used over a temperature range of -60°F to 500°F (-51°C to 260°C) see table 2. Both products are .020 inches thick (.51 mm). For applications where joint unevenness is in excess of .002 inches, the multicon embedded wire gasket is recommended (see Table 1).
