Overview

The DIN EN 3660 series of standards describes the characteristics of cable outlet accessories for circular and rectangular electrical and optical connectors for aerospace applications. The new edition of Part 063 defines a range of cable outlets, style K, straight, shielded, sealed, self-locking (anti-rotational), heat shrinkable boot, and / or metallic bands for use under the following conditions: Associated electrical connector(s): EN 3660-002. Class N in EN 3660-001 corresponds to class F in EN 3660-063. Temperature ranges: Class F (N): -65 °C to 200 °C (see note above); Class K: -65 °C to 200 °C; Class W: -65 °C to 175 °C; Class T: -65 °C to 175 °C (Nickel PTFE plating); Class Z: -65 °C to 175 °C (Zinc Nickel plating). Associated electrical accessories: prEN 3660-033 Metallic band (for shield termination). These cable outlets are designed for termination of overall shielding braid and / or individual cable shields. They accommodate/permit the termination of heat shrinkable boots. This standard differs from the previous edition DIN EN 3660-063:2010-10 as follows: a) the scope has been extended to metallic bands and temperature range classes T and Z; b) the normative references have been updated and extended; c) Figure 1 has been revised and the legend extended; d) Table 1 has been extended and values were partly changed; e) in Table 2 the column for G has been omitted and existing values have been changed; f) Table 3 has been expanded to include classes T and Z, in Tables 3 and 4 length code letter A and additional values have been included, existing values have been changed; g) limit dimensions have been included for distance D in Table 5; h) Figure 3 and Table 6 have been revised and partially changed; i) material and plating were included for classes T and Z in 4. 5 were included; j) in Table 7, classes T and Z have been included and the tightening torques changed; k) the newly included classes T and Z have been taken into account for the tests in Table 8, tests according to EN 2591-214 and EN 2591-423 and additions have been included for the remaining tests in some cases and/or changes made; l) 5.2, special tests and in particular Figure 4 have been changed; m) the identification block in Clause 6 has been extended to include information for decoupling protection. The standards of the EN 3660 series are prepared by ASD-STAN, Department of Electrical Engineering, with the collaboration of German experts from the Aerospace Standards Committee (NL) at DIN. AeroSpace and Defence Industries Association of Europe - Standardization (ASD-STAN) has been declared responsible by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) for preparing European Standards (EN) for the aerospace sector. By agreement of 3 October 1986, ASD became the Associated Organization (ASB) of CEN. The responsible German standardization committee is Working Committee NA 131-04-03 AA "Elektrische Verbindungselemente" ("Electrical connectors") at DIN Standards Committee Aerospace (NL).
