Belden PowerCinch modular power distribution system
10 March, 2010 byBelden has introduced PowerCinch, a modular power distribution and motor control connection system for machinery applications that has been developed under the Lumberg Automation brand.
Turck 7/8-16UN explosion-proof feed-through receptacle
10 March, 2010 byThe 7/8-16UN minifast explosion-proof feed-through receptacle is CSA certified as a secondary conduit seal. This quick-disconnect solution can serve as a secondary conduit seal to prevent gas migration or as a boundary seal, when used with a Turck CSA certified cordset. The receptacle may be applied in Class I, Division 2 locations without the use of intrinsically safe circuits or in Class I, Division 1 locations with intrinsically safe circuits.
Harting Han Q 4/2 connector
25 February, 2010The Han Q 4/2 connector used in automation and drive technology is now available with wiring technologies that dispense with the need for special tools. The power contacts are connected with the help of a standard hex key. The two signal contacts feature the Han-Quick Lock termination technology that requires no more than the use of a standard screwdriver.
Harting RJ Industrial 10G RJ45 connector
25 February, 2010The Harting RJ Industrial 10G is an RJ45 connector requiring no tools for connection. It features a design suitable for future 10 Gb ethernet use, and the connection is made reliably and quickly using proven insulation displacement terminal technology.
Harting Han 3 HPR hood
25 February, 2010The Han HPR series is primarily used in electrical connections in vehicles, as well as in applications with harsh climatic conditions or wet areas, or where sensitive connections require protection or shielding.
Harting Ha-VIS preLink ethernet extension connectors
25 February, 2010Harting Ha-VIS preLink is designed for use with a wide range of mating faces such as RJ45 to IP20, RJ45 PushPull according to IP65/67 or M12, and is also compatible with future 10GbE transmission rates.
Harting Han 3 A plastic housing
25 February, 2010The Han 3 A plastic housing with integrated cable clamp is 25% shorter than the standard version and can be combined with many existing contact inserts in the Han 3 A range.
Turck BL Compact modular I/O system
15 January, 2010 byTurck’s BL Compact system is a modular I/O solution for collecting a variety of signals in a single, rugged node on a network. Rather than routing all signals through a control cabinet, this device makes it possible to obtain analog, digital, thermocouple, RTD, serial, RFID or a mixture of signal types in a compact, on-the-machine device over DeviceNet, CANopen and Profibus-DP.
Rotating connectors
02 November, 2009Mercotac rotating connectors use a design principle unlike the sliding, brush contact of a slip ring. The connection is made through a pool of liquid metal molecularly bonded to the contact, which provides a low-resistance, stable connection.
Power connectors
21 September, 2009Turck has announced the A-Size 3- and 4-pin 7/8 16UN powerfast connectors, providing up to 600 V and 15 A of power in a time-saving, modular wiring design. These IP67-rated connectors are manufactured to handle high current applications for machine power distribution, while delivering resistance to vibration commonly associated with conveyors, motors and material handling applications.
Quick disconnect sensor-cordset combination
25 June, 2009 byTurck has expanded its range of FM approved 12, 18 and 30 mm 3-wire DC barrel sensor and cordset combinations. Now, quick disconnect sensors may be used in Class I, Division 2, Groups A, B, C and D environments when equipped with a Turk lokfast guard. Turck sensors with potted-in cable for use with conduit are also FM approved for these locations.
Modular docking connector system
25 June, 2009 byThe Han-Modular system now allows ‘blind’ insertion by automatic processes. The newly developed docking frame makes it possible to set up a modular docking connector without a housing. This allows the modular system to be used in insertion processes that are not hand-guided. With Han-Modular, users can select and assemble their customised connectors themselves.
Shielded cordsets
25 June, 2009 byTurck is now offering the option to completely shield M8 picofast cordsets by connecting a braided shield directly to the coupling nut. This provides a cost-effective and reliable connection with 100% cable and connector shielding, which protects against electromagnetic and radio frequency interference.
IP68 snap connectors
09 June, 2009 bySwitchcraft has expanded its EN3 range with moulded cord and inline connectors that mate by ‘snapping’ together.
Food-safe stainless steel connectors
01 April, 2009 byUntil now, many machines and devices in the processing industries, particularly food and beverage, have been permanently wired due to the environmental conditions. Highly resistant to aggressive substances, the Han-Inox housings made of high-grade stainless steel have been developed for applications in these areas.
