7. MIL-DTL-83723 Series II connectors are thread
coupled with rear release, rear removable, crimp
contacts. Hermetic connectors are available with non-
removable solder type contacts (Figure 1).
8. GROMMET SEALING PLUGS. The grommets of
environment resisting connectors are designed to accept
sealing plugs in accordance with MS27488 to be used
where unwired contacts are placed. The connector
when ordered as a unit will have sealing plugs enclosed
to equal 15 percent of the number of contacts but not
less than one.
9. MATING SEAL. Plugs and receptacles with pin
inserts have a resilient face with individual pin barriers
to seal against the hard face socket insert. The resilient
interface seal provides individual contact seals in mated
condition between each contact and shell.
