Ordering the right heavy duty connectors ensures reliability in industrial automation, energy, and machinery. Follow this 7-step process to specify your requirements accurately and streamline procurement.
1. Determine Electrical Ratings
Start by defining your voltage and current needs:
Voltage: 250V to 1,000V.
Current: 10A to 200A continuous load capacity.
2. Select Insert Configuration
Choose pins, plating, and termination:
Pin Count: 3 to 216 contacts (signal/power hybrid options available).
Plating:
Gold: For corrosion resistance (medical, marine).
Silver: Cost-effective for high-current industrial use.
Termination types of heavy duty connectors:
Screw Terminal: Tool-free installation.
Crimp Terminal: Vibration-proof (IEC 61373 compliant).
Cage Clamp: Quick-wire for 0.14–2.5mm² cables.
3. Housing & Hood Configuration
Match hoods and housings to inserts and environmental needs:
Hoods:
Low/High construction for space constraints.
Top/Side cable entry (IP68 glands included).
1 or 2 locking levers (vibration resistance).
Housings:
Bulkhead/Surface mounting or cable-to-cable.
Optional protection covers for unused ports.
IP Rating: IP65 (dust/water jets) or IP68 (submersion).
Thread Compatibility: M12–M40, PG7–PG21, or NPT.
Example: Han E 006 inserts require 6B hoods/housings.
4. Accessories
Enhance functionality with:
Cable Glands: Metal (EMI shielding) or plastic (lightweight).
Hose Kits: For pneumatic-hybrid connectors.
5. Customization (OEM/ODM)
Tailor connectors to your needs:
Logo Engraving: Brand housings or hoods.
Material Upgrades: Stainless steel bolts for corrosive environments.
Color Coding: Match machine safety standards (e.g., yellow for warnings).
6. Order Quantity
Prototypes: 1–5 units for testing (2-week lead time).
