Acceptance Testing
All filter connectors undergo extensive acceptance testing to
assure product quality. An outline of standard accep­tance
testing performed is as follows:
Mechanical Inspection
• Dimensional inspection of shells, keys, keyways and
mount­ing surfaces by either in-process inspection of compo-
nents or inspection of final assemblies.
• Visual inspection of contacts, inserts and seals, gaskets and
surface finish of shells and hardware.
Electrical Tests
• Insulation resistance of filter contacts is checked 100% at the
working voltage and to the test limit listed for each fil­ter in
the filter selection data table.
• Dielectric withstanding voltage is tested on 100% of filter
contacts at the voltage listed in the filter selection data table.
• Capacitance is tested 100% at 1KHz.
Special Tests/Processes
In addition to the standard acceptance testing and processes,
the following additional production testing and processing can
be provided upon request:
• Attenuation testing (through 100 MHz)
• Leakage inspection
• Thermal cycling/shock
• Burn-in
• De-gassing
Consult Amphenol Aerospace for further information.
Qualifications
Amphenol® filter connectors have been qualified and are on
periodic requalification to specification BSF-1 (available from
your Amphenol representative). This is patterned after
MIL-DTL-38999, modified to include mechanical and
environmental testing and electrical parameters important to
filter connector performance.
These acceptance tests, along with exhaustive in-process
inspection and testing, give Amphenol® filter connectors their
reputation for reliability.
