Radiall EPX E Connectors (Later Model MD-11s)

Anybody have a catalog that shows the inserts for these connectors?

The Douglas Wiring Standard Practices Manual doesn’t have a graphic that shows how the pins inserts are laid out.

Believe it or not Radiall customer support only had a catalog for EPX-A and B series.

I'm comparing wire lists with connector layouts to find spare pins to add new wiring.

I think the -E series are environmental, but hate to assume they are similar to A & B series.

Assume = reaction support in the hangar.

Thanks

Hi,
we've an old catalog that shows the inserts for the EPX connectors. -E is, as you already said, environmental. If you still need a copy tell me where to send it to.

phlamp,

The original issue is resolved, but I would like a copy of the catalog. We have about six aircraft with these connectors on the MAR rack.

How do list members discretely exchange contact info? I see public posting is discouraged.

Phil,

Is it possible to still get a copy of the Radiall catalog for the EPXE connectors?  Thank you for any assistance you may be able to render.

Bill

Yes. We've the April 2000 Edition of the EPX catalog. You may get in touch via http://www.plampert.net/mailform.php

I am currently designing in the EPX series on a new project.  According to the 1998 catalog I have, the inserts for the EPX family were not originally keyed for the double insert.  i.e. one insert fit anywhere. In the current catalog you have to use an A insert and a B insert in the double shell.  The keyway in the original EPX's was only used to prevent inserting the insert 180 out.

I don't know if the current "A" insert will fit into both sides in the older housings.  Based upon what I see in the newer and older catalogs I would "assume" it does.

And yes, the E indicates environmental seals.
