SOURIAU – SUNBANK Connection Technologies
Cost-Effective ARINC 600 Connector
As part of its commitment to ensure ongoing customer satisfaction, Souriau develops solutions to reduce the cost of its connectors without sacrificing their high performance. One example is its new Cost-Effective ARINC 600 connector with harpooned contacts. Like its predecessor, this connector conforms to the ARINC 600 standard but costs as much as 25% less.
After analysing the growth value, Souriau noted a low repair rate for ARINC 600 connectors. This observation enabled the company to simplify the product's design: the inserts are both one piece and unmarked and the harpooned contacts are prefitted. The Cost-Effective ARINC 600 connector comes available with 150-point inserts or 100-point inserts. Standard inserts and harpooned-contact inserts can be combined in the same shell.Cost-Effective ARINC shells are interchangeable with Standard ARINC shells and thus mate perfectly with standard plugs.
