TV Breakaway Fail Safe Connectors
quick-disconnect with an axial pull of lanyard
Amphenol Tri-Start Breakaway Fail Safe Con-
nectors provide unequalled performance in
environments requiring instant disengage-
ment.
Designed to provide quick disconnect of a
connector plug and receptacle with an axial
pull on the lanyard, the “Breakaway” Fail Safe
connector family offers a wide range of
electrical and mechanical features:
• Instant decoupling and damage free
• Completely intermateable with standard
• Inventory support commonality through the
Breakaway un-mating is initiated by applying a
pull force to the lanyard which causes the oper-
ating sleeve on the plug to move away from the
receptacle. Coupling segments on the plug then move
away from the mating receptacle while expanding, thus releasing the receptacle.
After completion of the un-mating sequence, spring compression returns the
sleeve and segments to their original positions. Un-mating of the plug may also
be accomplished by normal rotation of the coupling ring without affecting the
breakaway capability.
The Tri-Start Breakaway Fail Safe connector features which provide EMI/EMP
shielding in excess of MIL-DTL-38999 Series III requirements:
• Solid metal-to-metal coupling
• EMI grounding fingers
• Conductive finishes
Amphenol Breakaway Fail Safe connectors are qualified to MIL-DTL-38999/
29, /30 and /31 (for MIL-STD-1760 Stores Management applications). In fact,
Amphenol offers more qualified Breakaway shell size and insert combina-
tions than any other QPL supplier.
custom breakaway connectors including those with:
• Highly durable non-metallic operating sleeves in a variety of lengths and
• Increased pull-force capability
• Low-profile designs
• Custom lanyard lengths and backshells
• Low force separation capabilities
• Low insertion/separation force contacts
• Non-cadmium finishes
