MIL-DTL-83517A
3.6 Coupling proof torque. When tested as specified in 4.5.3, the coupling mechanism (threaded
types) shall not be dislodged, and the connector shall meet the requirements of 3.5. The interface
dimensions of the connector shall remain as specified (see 3.1 and 3.4).
3.7 Contact gaging. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.4, the contact dimensions shall
be gaged as specified and the contact dimensions shall stay within the specified tolerance (see 3.1).
3.8 Permeability of nonmagnetic materials. When connectors (except hermetic-sealed) are tested as
specified in 4.5.5, the permeability (µ) shall not be greater than 2.0.
3.9 Seal (see 6.5 for definitions).
3.9.1 Hermetic-sealed connectors. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.6.1, the leakage
rate shall not exceed that specified (see 3.1).
3.9.2 Pressurized and weatherproof connectors. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.6.2,
there shall be no leakage as detected by escaping air bubbles.
3.10 Insulation resistance. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.7, the insulation
resistance shall not be less than that specified (see 3.1).
3.11 Center contact retention (where applicable see 3.1).
3.11.1 Axial force. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.8.1, the center contacts shall
withstand the axial force specified (see 3.1). The center contact shall meet the applicable mating
dimensions (see 3.1).
3.11.2 Torque. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.8.2, there shall be no rotation of the
center contact (see 3.1).
3.12 Dielectric withstanding voltage. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.9, there shall be
no evidence of breakdown or flashover.
3.13 Corrosion. When connectors are tested in 4.5.10 , there shall be no exposure of the base metal
on the interface or mating surface, and they shall meet the requirements of 3.5.
3.14 Voltage standing wave ratio (VSWR). When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.11, the
VSWR shall not exceed that specified over the frequency range specified (see 3.1).
3.15 Radio frequency (RF) transmission loss. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.12, the
transmission loss shall not exceed that specified (see 3.1).
3.16 Radio frequency (RF) leakage. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.13, the total
leakage shall not exceed that specified (see 3.1).
3.17 Connector durability. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.14, they shall show no
evidence of severe mechanical damage and the coupling device shall remain functional. Connectors
3.18 Contact resistance. When connectors are tested as specified in 4.5.15, the contact resistance
shall be as specified (see 3.1).
