Offering design flexibility, Hirose expands waterproof USB connector family with two new versions.
binder presents the 570 series – the Easy Locking Connector (ELC) for use in medical applications. The cable connector which features snap-in locking and an asymmetric hexagon shape in the mating area stands for high safety in operation as well as for a long service life. Biocompatible, non-irritant to skin, and resistant to disinfectants, it is suitable for use in the patient environment.
AutomationDirect has added more color choices for Direct Wire 1kV ALL-FLEX MTW/THHW heavy-duty flexible power cable. This extremely flexible large gauge (8AWG to 500MCM) single-conductor industrial cable is ideal for industrial control panel distribution, VFD power feeds, servo systems, and non-traditional industrial applications including uninterruptable power supply (UPS) and transformer wiring, battery chargers, and marine board applications.
Schaffner develops C14 IEC dual locking power connector that prevents accidental unmating in a wide range of applications.
Circular Plastic Connectors (CPC) are rugged and reliable connector systems suitable for many applications. CPC connectors are polarized for proper mating of connector halves, with removable contacts and a replaceable coupling ring that makes field repair easy. They are designed with a stabilized, heat-resistant, self-extinguishing thermoplastic material. These circular plastic connectors are trusted with their performance reliability and used anywhere signal and power either enter or exit a system.
SCHURTER announces the IEC C14 Connector series 6080 with mating C13 V-Lock power cords for protection against dust and water ingress.
The Shielded RJ45 Connector with Crimp Tail for CAT6A Cable (RJ456A-SC) is the latest pass-through connector manufactured by Jonard Tools and it provides a better and stronger connection. These connectors feature a 50uin gold plated contact surface with a rugged nickel-plated brass housing and a pass-through design which eliminate the need to measure and cut wires before termination.
Recently, Mencom was very pleased to announce that most of their circular connector product lines are now IP69 rated. The products include cordsets, receptacles and accessories for MIN size I, II and III (Brad Mini-Change Connectors), MDC (M12 with A-code), MEC (M12 with B-code), MAC (1/2”-20 with C-code), Ethernet (M12 with D-code), and Network Bus series.
In a southern Germany hospital, 225 patient beds were equipped with new flexible monitors, making the screen position easy to change. However, due to poor quality cabling, the monitors did not withstand the stresses associated with everyday use. HELUKABEL took a closer look at the problem and found a solution by supplying a much stronger cable with greater durability that is typically applied to machine control panels.
Food safety is always a concern for manufacturers and processors of food related items. Even though in the United States sickness from food borne illnesses is at an all time low, manufacturers are always striving to keep their customers healthy and provide quality products. This does not only mean they are concerned with just the raw materials that are going into your favorite foods, but they are diligently upgrading machinery to enhance cleanliness and efficiency.
LAPP’s ÖLFLEX HEAT 260 SC heat-resistant single-core industrial cable now carries UL AWM certification/cRU AWM I A/B. Ideal for applications subject to extreme temperatures, the ÖLFLEX HEAT 260 SC cable features polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) insulation to provide exceptional resistance to acids, alkalis, solvents, oils, other chemicals and UV exposure.
Introducing the PCB terminal blocks with Push-in CAGE CLAMP connection and levers, from WAGO. These terminal blocks allow for push-in termination of solid and ferruled conductors, allowing for intuitive and tool-free operation. Several clamping units can be held open simultaneously, simplifying the connection of multi-core cables, and testing can be performed both parallel and perpendicular to conductor entry.
The new XTV terminal blocks can accommodate the direct insertion of all conductor types: ferruled, solid, or stranded wires. The XTV series is the first product family to feature Push-X connection technology from Phoenix Contact. Push-X operates similarly to Phoenix Contact’s popular Push-in Technology (PT) but uses a preloaded mousetrap design that keeps the leg spring depressed.
Positronic MACH-D D-Sub Connectors are made with finely machined shells that provide excellent EMI protection. This EMI shielding protects against electronic disruptions, guarding data loss, and defends against system failure. The MACH-D design and production process eliminates these concerns, allowing the connector to meet or exceed quality and reliability expectations.
Installation and maintenance procedures in process plants should be carried out precisely and safely, but at the same time as quickly as possible. Manual searches often prove to be a costly and time-consuming obstacle, for example when the required product documentation is not immediately available or information from different manufacturers is available in different formats.
