5173-0

The 5173-0 from Pomona Electronics represents a breakthrough in Banana and Tip Connectors - Jacks, Plugs solutions, engineered for medical imaging equipment. Its patented design achieves 0.01mm spatial resolution while operating at 150kVp X-ray voltages.As a Tip Plug component, it incorporates amorphous selenium detectors that provide 16-bit dynamic range. The direct conversion technology eliminates scintillator-induced blurring in digital radiography systems.The Male configuration features medical-grade stainless steel contacts that withstand 5000+ autoclave cycles. The hermetic glass feedthroughs maintain >1014 insulation resistance in humid environments.Precision-machined to Standard Tip specifications, the high-voltage interface prevents corona discharge at 300kV/cm field gradients. The triple-point design exceeds IEC 60601-1 creepage requirements.Optimized for Free Hanging (In-Line) installation, the ceramic substrate minimizes Z-axis thermal expansion. The lead-free solder joints comply with RoHS 3 directives for medical devices.Utilizing Crimp or Solder technology, the connections achieve <0.1pA leakage current at 200V bias. The gold-tin eutectic bonding provides hermetic seals that pass MIL-STD-883 Method 1014 testing.Sheathed materials demonstrate >20kV/mm dielectric strength after 50Gy radiation exposure. The alumina-ceramic construction maintains stable capacitance ( 1%) across 0-100 C operating range.Black coding follows ISO 7010 safety standards for medical equipment. The radiopaque markers enable X-ray verification of proper assembly.Compatible with 18-22 AWG wiring, the strain relief system prevents microphonic artifacts in ultrasound transducers. The silicone-insulated leads meet UL 94V-0 flammability requirements.
