MS27508E14B35S 37-Pin MIL-DTL-38999 Circular Socket

MS27467 Circular Connectors

MS27508E14B35S Circular Socket for Marine and Offshore Electrical Integration

The MS27508E14B35S is a 37-pin circular socket connector engineered for the demanding conditions of marine and offshore electrical systems. Manufactured to MIL-DTL-38999 Series III standards, it provides dependable signal continuity and mechanical reliability under vibration, temperature fluctuations, and moisture exposure.

Its 37-contact insert arrangement supports efficient distribution of sensor signals, monitoring data, and control circuits across integrated shipboard systems. The Shell Size 14 housing balances wiring capacity with installation footprint, making it suitable for compact control cabinets and instrumentation modules.

Designed with a corrosion-resistant aluminum shell and sealed interface, the connector achieves IP67 protection when mated, safeguarding internal components from water ingress and environmental contaminants.

Application Scenarios

• Marine bridge instrumentation and navigation electronics
• Propulsion and engine diagnostic systems
• Shipboard communication infrastructure
• PLC-based automation and alarm control panels
• Offshore monitoring and distributed control equipment

Key Selection Considerations

When evaluating the MS27508E14B35S for your application, consider the following decision points:

• Contact density: The 37-pin arrangement suits multi-signal integration but requires careful planning of wire routing and termination to maintain serviceability.
• Environmental sealing: IP67 protection is achieved only when mated; unmated connectors should be protected with appropriate caps to prevent contamination.
• Temperature range: With an operating range from −65°C to +200°C, the connector performs reliably in exposed deck installations and high-temperature engine compartments.
• Mating compatibility: Confirm the corresponding plug configuration and keying arrangement to ensure correct mating with your existing cable assemblies.

Configuration and Mating Dependencies

The MS27508E14B35S is a socket (female) connector with a 37-pin layout. For proper system integration, verify the following with your engineering team:

• Mating plug series and shell size compatibility
• Contact termination method (crimp or solder) and required tooling
• Cable entry orientation and backshell requirements
• Panel cutout dimensions and mounting hardware

Suitable and Unsuitable Applications

Suitable for: Marine bridge electronics, engine monitoring, shipboard control panels, and offshore distributed instrumentation where MIL-DTL-38999 Series III performance is specified.

Not recommended for: Applications requiring unmated waterproof performance, high-current power distribution beyond the contact rating, or environments where the specified temperature range is exceeded. For related MIL-DTL-38999 options, review the MS27467 Circular Connectors series or explore the 12G Series Circular Connectors for alternative configurations.

Inquiry Checklist

To receive accurate matching and configuration support, please provide the following information with your inquiry:
