Connectors are used on electrical wiring harnesses and are essentially enclosures (i.e., shells) which house contacts with wires. The electrical connection into the system at the contact termination is either a soldered or crimped connection (the latter removable from the connector with the use of a special tool). The shell and insert may be moisture resistant or a hermetic seal. The inserts in each connector must be oriented for correct mating, and the shell or insert usually contains a keying feature to prevent miss-mating that could damage the connector or result in an electrical problem. 

Connectors can be of a Plug (“male”) or Receptacle (“female”) type. Receptables are also termed as sockets or jacks. Plugs have prolonged connecting pins which fit into the mating sockets. Receptables have mounting features such as a flange with holes. Connectors used in aircraft are mostly those complying with Military Standards (MIL-STD) and Military Specifications (MIL-SPEC).

Different connectors, structured in series, are offered as part of our own branded (AVIATIONEU NEW ERA) product lines to provide cost-effective solutions for a variety of applications. Sourced by quality suppliers, they are available in plug or receptable types.

The KLIXON® 7277 series circuit breakers are the commercial grade version of the 7274 series circuit breakers  which are small, lightweight, low amperage devices that are specifically designed to protect aircraft/aerospace cable and components in airborne vehicles and equipment. The KLIXON® 7277 series circuit breakers are physically and electrically identical to the 7274-2 military grade circuit breakers, with the exception that the 7277 series has wider calibration limits.  Klixon® 7277 series breakers have been designed for applications that do not require the tighter performance characteristics and approvals of 7277-2 series military circuit breakers. 

Originally developed as an alternative to slow blow fuses, the trip–free 7277 series breakers are used extensively as primary electrical circuit protection on general aviation aircraft. The wider calibration limits of the 7277 has also resulted in applications including protection for data processing and telecommunications equipment, computers, flight simulators, construction, material handling and other industrial,electronic equipment. Suitable for use on trainer / simulator applications where all breakers are operated on low ampere control current, different ampere rating inserts (amp ratings on top of push button) can be ordered.

KLIXON® 7277 series circuit breakers' features include:

• Miniature size

• Light weight

• Trip–free design

• Current rating: 0.5 to 20 amps

• High vibration resistance

• Options include: dust boot (part #14500-1 fits 15/32 bushing, part #14500-5 fits 7/16 bushing), auxiliary switch, terminal hardware, longer push button.

Thermocouple and thermocouple extension wires are flexible, insulated wires the first used to link a thermocouple to a temperature control device or make the sensing point (or probe) of the thermocouple while the second to extend a thermocouple signal from a probe back to the measuring instrument reading the signal over long distances.

There are different types of thermocouples conctructed from 2 conductor solid core thermocouple grade specified gauge insulated wires with a positive and negative lead and an insulated outer jacket. Types N, K, E, J, T are base metal thermocouple wires  mostly used while Types S, R and B are precious metal thermocouple wires. Common Thermocouple Wire Types are outlined below while their more detailed presentation and characteristics are included in the Product Description section.

K-Type thermocouple (nickel-chromium (nickel-silicon - nickel-aluminum). Base metal thermocouple with strong oxidation resistance with a temperature measurement capability from 0 to 1300 °C.  Main disadvantages include among others a high-temperature stability of thermoelectric potential lower than of N-type and precious metal thermocouples and a poor short-term thermal cycle stability in the range of 250-500 °C.

T-Type thermocouple (copper-copper-nickel). It has the highest accuracy and good uniformity among the base metal thermocouples and an operating temperature between -200 and 350 ℃.

J-Type thermocouple (iron-constantan ). Suitable for reducing or inert atmosphere for vacuum oxidation, and the temperature range from -200 to 800 °C.

N-Type thermocouple (NiCrSi-NiSi). Features of the thermocouple are strong anti-oxidation ability in temperature regulation below 1300 °C, good long-term stability and short-term thermal cycle repeatability, good nuclear radiation resistance, and low-temperature resistance. 

E-Type thermocouple (nickel-chromium-copper-nickel [constantan] thermocouple). Its thermoelectric potential is the highest among the commonly used thermocouples. Often selected for applications in conditions of high sensitivity, low thermal conductivity, and large resistance that can be tolerated. Less sensitive than Type K to corrosion in atmospheres containing higher humidity.
