Phoenix Contact is extending its range of reflow-solder-capable PCB terminal blocks (MSL1) to include the 2.5 mm² cross-section. The new PCB terminal blocks made of heat-resistant plastic are designed for currents up to 32 A and voltages up to 400 V, and are suitable for connecting ferrules up to 2.5 mm² and both rigid and flexible conductors up to 4 mm².
Sealcon’s A2F cable gland features an innovative design that saves space with its smaller footprint along with the weight and cost savings that go with that. It is available in Metric or NPT threads and comes with an O-Ring on Metric thread Options. The O-Ring groove protects the O-Ring seal from damage. The A2F cable gland has IP66, IP67 and IP68 (5bar) ratings.
Phoenix Contact is extending its portfolio with PCB terminal blocks for PROFINET-compliant data transmission. Each of the 4-position PCB terminal blocks have been designed specially for the connection of twisted pair cables with cross-sections of 0.14 mm² to 4 mm². The conductors are connected via spring- or screw connection technology. Printed or color-coded connection points allow you to assign the conductors easily.
The hybrid terminal blocks from Phoenix Contact enable different connection technologies to be used for the interior and exterior sides of your control cabinet. The matching combination of simple Push-in connection on the interior control cabinet side and classic screw connection on the end-customer side provide you with practical solutions.
Signal interface modules provide the most compact and reliable connectivity solution for automation I/O signaling, while minimizing labor and overall costs.
With IE’s SmartCenter™ platform and line of integrated smart components the digital mine of the future has arrived today.
TE Connectivity (TE), a world leader in connectivity and sensors, introduces its Mezalok High-Speed Low-Force (HSLF) XMC connector to support data rate speeds up to 32+ Gb/s for improved signal processing on embedded computing applications.
Using an L32 B connector allows users to replace two size 16 B interfaces — saving up to 40% of installation space. This makes it possible to transmit power, signals and data with fewer interfaces and fewer components. It also cuts the time required to assemble interfaces.
Altech Corporation introduces their CY Series of screw clamp terminal blocks featuring a universal and flexible push-in jumper system.
For delivering versatility, flexibility, and optimum conductivity, Mencom offers our new 1 3/8” PMIN Power Series Field Wireable Circular Connectors
Designed for tight industrial spaces and with best-in-class torsion tolerance, Cat 6A High Flex cables deliver reliable, robust performance for high movement applications in harsh environments. The DataTuff Cat 6A High Flex Industrial Ethernet Cables provide the reliable, high performance data transmission needed in today’s highly automated industrial operations.
The LÜTZE wiring system product family has been expanded to include the new EMC click elements for AirSTREAM rail profiles. Like the previous click element for hat profiles, the shield clamps and spring shield clamps of the premium EMC accessories can be used. Shielded cables of all kinds from 10-50 mm can be installed safely and tidily. The EMC click elements can be clicked into the AirSTREAM rail profile or in the DIN hat profile without tools.
Using an L32 B connector allows users to replace two size 16 B interfaces — saving over 40% of installation space. This makes it possible to transmit power, signals and data with fewer interfaces and fewer components. It also cuts the time required to assemble interfaces. The resulting lower weight also benefits a number of other applications, e.g. in robotics. The solution not only saves space, it also makes a contribution to lower consumption – and thus stands for sustainable product design.
(Waseca, MN) Cinch Connectivity Solutions, a Bel group company, recently announced the expansion of the Type N Connectors with four straight cabled, crimp type configurations operating to 4 GHz. Type N Connectors are typically used where high power and high-performance requirements are both required. These connectors have a rugged brass construction and nickel finish, intended to support larger, low loss cable types.
Electrical control panels are an integral part of any automated manufacturing process. While control systems are a fundamental aspect of electrical engineering, many people aren’t aware of the key control panel components required to function safely and reliably.
The Sealcon Twilock-S connection system is an extremely simple and highly reliable quick fastening system. Sealcon’s Twilock-S metric circular plug-in connectors mate to Speedtec by Intercontec/TE Connectivity making adaptivity between these two connector systems technically possible. All it takes is just one click, a slight twist and the plug-in system goes from “Open” to “Close”; making it child’s play to plug in a connector even where access is quite difficult.
