The PV connector is designed to meet the rugged requirements of MIL-C-26482, Series 2/MIL-C-83723 Series I*, the specification which delineates the critical requirements of space-age applications. PV connectors have been used extensively on major aerospace programs requiring general-purpose, miniature cylindrical bayonet coupling connectors such as Space Shuttle, Apollo, ATM, OWS Minuteman, Skylab, Thor-Delta, Titan IIIC, and Viking. The PV series is an important member of the Universal Interconnect System (UIS) - the only system that can perform all interconnection missions. This system is adaptable for use with connectors of all shapes and sizes, including circular and rectangular configurations. standard, miniature and subminiature sizes. UIS is a rear servicing system that evolved from the LITTLE CAESAR? rear release contact retention assembly, pioneered and developed by ITT Cannon. Since this time, ITT Cannon, and its licensees, have supplied to industry over 250 million interconnections utilizing this system.
