Mini-Circuits’ ACUDIAL-N Series connector Gage kit is a push on type gage designed to measure the center contact pin location from the outer conductor mating surface of type N female and male connectors per MIL-PRF-39012 class 2. Refer to dimensions A(MP) and B (MF) in Figure 1. A(MP) and B(MF) dimensions are termed as interface matting dimensions. The ACUDIAL-N Gage kit consists of: 1. a dial indicator assembly graduated in 0.001 increments with integral female and male measurement bushings. 2. female and male master gage 3. Instruction manual all contained in a solid wooden instrument case (8.5 x 7 x 3.5 inches) Before checking the interface dimensions of any connector the dial indicator is set to zero by means of a master gage. After zeroing , the connector is engaged on the on the male or female bushing of the gage depending upon the gender of connector The resultant reading is the actual deviation from the nominal (mean) dimension as indicated in following table 1. APPLICATION All the coaxial connectors mounted on device cables or any test equipment should always be gaged before mating to insure compliance. Such check helps in averting interfered matting and to assure proper electrical performance and produce accurate test data and preventing damage to the device being tested. The ACUDIAL-N Gage kit is the right tool for all of these situations, and can also be used for performing production checkout, incoming inspections, routine quality control, and general laboratory operations.
