Posted for "Jeffrey Liegner, MD" <liegner@earthlink.net>:

Which cannon plugs (or AMP plugs or whatever manufacturer) have people found
successful going through the pressure bulkhead (firewall)? I've got a 31 wire
bundle going through and am having a hard time sealing it against the interior
PSI.

Exact information requested.

Archives are silent on this one.

[Jeff, you might want to check out http://www.spacecraft.com/... they have lots of great connectors that accommodate multiple wire gauges with all sorts of pin combinations.  Just be prepared to pay dearly for them.  Once you've got the bulkhead-side of the connector populated and functionally tested you might want to pot the interior side with 5-minute epoxy or tool handle dip compound or roofing sealant (all non-corrosive cures) to hold back the pressure. <marv>   ]
