MIL-PRF-83536/16C
NOTES:
1. Dimensions are in inches.
2. Metric equivalents are given for general information only.
3. Unless otherwise specified, tolerance is ± .010 (0.25mm).
4. This relay shall not operate or be damaged by reverse polarity. Semiconductors shall not be used for this
purpose.
5. Permanent magnet drive consists of a permanent magnet with its flux path switched and combined with the
electromagnetic flux.
6. Terminal numbers shall not appear on the header. There shall be affixed to the relay a legible circuit diagram
that identifies each terminal location specified.
7. Back EMF suppression circuit: JANTX or equivalent screened semiconductors shall be used. Back EMF shall
be 42 V dc maximum. Relays using suppression devices shall continue to operate should the suppression
circuit be in a failure mode.
8. Socket pin terminals shall provide the operational, environmental, and interface characteristics to provide a
reliable interconnect to gold-plated contacts. Terminals shall be gold plated. One system for gold plating that
may be used is ASTM B488, type 3, class 1.25 with a nickel underplate of 50 to 150 microinches thick. The
gold plating system shall enable the product to meet the performance requirements of this specification and
shall be approved by the qualifying activity.
9. Track mount base, knob, latching pin and post shall be corrosion resistant. One way of ensuring corrosion
resistance is to nickel plate stainless steel 303 with 100 microinches minimum thickness in accordance with
McDonnell Douglas P.S. 13112 (Deutsch Relays, Inc. Patent number 3,790,915 or equivalent 100 microinches
thick minimum.
10. Track mount relay shall be capable of mating with MIL-DTL-12883/51 "Bracket and Socket Assembly",
configuration 1. The latching pin shall be capable of withstanding an axial pull of 35 pounds, in a direction
away from the knob, without any degradation. The rotation of the knob mechanism shall be restricted such
that the latching pins cannot be placed on the side opposite the MIL-DTL-12883/50 bracket cutouts.
11. Indicated terminals shall be identified by contrasting beads.
12. Gasket shall provide a reliable seal between the relay and mating socket that will meet the environmental,
operational, and interface requirements of the relay with the mating socket. The gasket shall have shore
hardness 30 to 45. Gasket material according to SAE-AMS3332 has been considered acceptable.
