IP rating for MIL-STD circular connectors
IP rating for MIL-STD circular connectors
(OP)
We use some MIL-STD-38999 connectors (Amphenol, Glen-Air, etc.) and I'm trying to figure out an IP## (ingress protection) rating for them. For example, how does the IP rating compare for a non-environmental M85049/36 backshell vs. an 'environmental' M85049/17 backshell? I'm not seeing a clear definition of environmental in DTL38999.
Are there any tricks to figure out the conversion from MIL-STD to IP?

If a particular 38999 type connector met the IP ratings, then it might be mentioned explicitly. Example see pg 2.

As it was mentioned above, I see Amphenol does have an Aqcuacon series that is immersible.
