• Mounting configuration: Panel mount with bulkhead front side nut
• Termination method: Crimp
• Fastening mechanism: Threaded
• Shell material and finish: Aluminum with nickel plating
• Contact finish: Gold plating
• Current rating: 5A
• Operating temperature range: -65°C to 200°C
• Contact material: Copper alloy
• Contact finish thickness: 50.0µin (1.27µm)
• Insert material: Thermoplastic

The D38999/24FC35SN manufactured by Souriau-Sunbank by Eaton meets all critical electrical and mechanical parameters required for direct substitution. Both connectors conform to MIL-DTL-38999 Series III military specifications and maintain identical physical and electrical characteristics necessary for interchangeable operation.

Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The D38999/24FC35SN manufactured by Souriau-Sunbank by Eaton is a direct functional equivalent to the discontinued DTS24F13-35SN. Both connectors meet MIL-DTL-38999 Series III specifications and share identical electrical and mechanical characteristics across all critical parameters.

Product Status Consideration: The D38999/24FC35SN maintains active product status with 994 units in stock, providing immediate availability compared to the discontinued DTS24F13-35SN.

Compliance Differences: The DTS24F13-35SN is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, while the D38999/24FC35SN is RoHS non-compliant and REACH unaffected. Selection between these parts depends on regulatory requirements specific to the end application and geographic market.

Enhanced Features: The D38999/24FC35SN provides IP67 ingress protection (dust tight, waterproof) and shielding characteristics, offering enhanced environmental sealing compared to the environment sealed specification of the DTS24F13-35SN. These additional features do not compromise compatibility and provide improved performance in demanding applications.

Both connectors share identical ECCN (EAR99) and HTSUS (8536.69.4020) classifications, ensuring consistent export control and tariff treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can the D38999/24FC35SN directly replace the DTS24F13-35SN in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both connectors are 22-position receptacles with identical shell size (13-35), mounting configuration (panel mount bulkhead), termination method (crimp), and electrical ratings (5A, -65°C to 200°C). The connectors are mechanically and electrically interchangeable.

Q: What is the difference between "Environment Sealed" and "IP67" ingress protection?

A: The DTS24F13-35SN specifies environment sealed protection, while the D38999/24FC35SN specifies IP67 (dust tight, waterproof). IP67 is a standardized ingress protection rating. The D38999/24FC35SN provides enhanced environmental sealing suitable for submersion in water up to 1 meter for 30 minutes.

Q: Does the shielding on the D38999/24FC35SN affect compatibility?

A: No. Shielding is an additional feature that does not compromise mechanical or electrical compatibility. The shielded D38999/24FC35SN can replace the non-shielded DTS24F13-35SN without modification.

Q: Are there compliance implications when substituting the DTS24F13-35SN with the D38999/24FC35SN?

A: Yes. The DTS24F13-35SN is ROHS3 compliant and REACH affected, while the D38999/24FC35SN is RoHS non-compliant and REACH unaffected. Applications subject to RoHS3 or REACH regulations must verify that the D38999/24FC35SN meets specific compliance requirements before substitution.

Q: What is the contact finish thickness specification, and is it identical between both connectors?

A: Both connectors specify 50.0µin (1.27µm) gold plating thickness on mating contacts. This specification ensures consistent electrical performance and contact reliability across both parts.

Q: Are both connectors rated for the same current and temperature range?

A: Yes. Both the DTS24F13-35SN and D38999/24FC35SN are rated for 5A continuous current and operate across the identical temperature range of -65°C to 200°C.

Q: What is the base product number for the D38999/24FC35SN?

A: The base product number is D38999/24FC. The suffix "35SN" designates the specific shell size (13-35) and contact finish (gold, nickel shell).

Q: Are both connectors suitable for aviation, marine, and military applications?

A: Yes. Both connectors are specified for aviation, marine, and military applications and conform to MIL-DTL-38999 Series III military specifications.
