Teledyne Reynolds Quality Assurance Levels

​ High Voltage Cable Assemblies Our parts are space-proven and undergo extensive screening (see 'Screening' tab). Examples of space-qualified products are shown below. Single-Pin 600 Series – Rating 5kVDC Frequently applied to power systems, photomultipliers, scientific instruments PeeWee Series – Rating 12kVDC Used in many space TWTs 311 Series – Rating 15kVDC Frequently applied to power systems, photomultipliers, scientific instruments Multi-Pin 1807 Series – Rating 15kVDC Often used in Electric propulsion applications High Voltage Wire & Cable Offered as a shielded or non-shielded cable variant and rated up to 18kVDC, our high-performance High Voltage Cable for space applications is optimised for the harsh conditions of Space. With a 3µm silver plated copper conductor, our cable has excellent 'Red Plague' resistance, is inherently low outgassing and has excellent dielectric strength whilst remaining small, lightweight and flexible.

Custom Screening

Confidence in Teledyne Reynolds products is confirmed through an extensive test regime in accordance with an agreed Acceptance Test Procedure. For further assurance, subject to customer requirement, Lot Validation of a manufactured batch can also be performed. In addition, all products are provided with a comprehensive supporting data pack.

Typical Screening tests include:

• Pre-assembly visual inspection of components
• In Process Visual and Radiographic Inspection (Solder Joints)
• Mating verification
• Room Temperature Electrical Tests
• High and Low Temperature Electrical Tests
• External Visual Inspection

Typical Lot Validation test include:

LV 1

• Sinusoidal Vibration
• Random Vibration
• Bump
• Climatic Sequence – Dry Heat
• Climatic Sequence – Damp Heat
• Post Environmental Test Visual Inspection
• Room temperature Electrical Tests
• High & low temp. Electrical Tests
• External Visual Inspection

LV 2

• Endurance
• Rapid Change of Temperature
• Electrical Measurements at High and Low Temperature
• Partial Discharge
• External Visual Inspection

Typical Data Pack include:

• Radiographic inspection report for all solder joints

Reynolds UK Products Enable NASA Mars
Perseverance Rover

We’re delighted to be part of the SuperCam instrument, a combined camera, laser and spectrometer designed to look for organic compounds that could be clues of possible past life on the planet. It is able to make measurements and identify chemical and mineral targets as small as a pencil point from up to 20 feet away. More information he​re.

Our partnership was with IRAP, the French Institut De Recherche En Astrophysique Et Planétologie, key contributors to the SuperCam instrument. This is part of a long-standing collaboration which includes parts on the Solar Orbiter mission. More information from IRAP here.

Reynolds PeeWee connectors were chosen because of their small size, high performance and space heritage. They were evaluated extensively for suitability for use on the Martian surface before selection.

Reynolds UK Provides Critical High Voltage Interconnects for ESA’s Solar Orbiter SPICE Instrument

Making use of special variants of our Hi/Mate-D’s, the SPICE instrument is making groundbreaking measurements to trace the layers in the Sun’s atmosphere from the corona down to a layer known as the chromosphere. Read more about it here.

Heritage

Our products have a long heritage in space in both European and US programmes and can be found on satellite payloads and launchers, including:

• International Space Station
• Rosetta
• BepiColombo
• Exomars
• Solar Orbiter
• Hubble Space Telescope
