MHV Connectors

MHV Connectors

mhv
MHV (Miniature High Voltage) connectors are bayonet locking interconnects used for high voltage applications up to 5000 volts.

They are similar in size to, but not designed to mate with the BNC interface. MHV connectors conform to MIL-STD-348 and offer a quick-connect functionality that is used where transmission of high voltage is required.

Features and Benefits
  • Used for high voltage applications up to 5000 volts DC
  • Quick connect functionality
  • Conforms to MIL 348 standards
  • Nickel plating
Applications
  • Transmission Lines
  • High Voltage Power Supplies
  • Nuclear Control Instrumentation
  • X-Ray
