Heavy-duty connectors provide more space for wiring
Phoenix Contact's new tall sleeve and surface mounting housings for Heavycon Standard B-series connectors are particularly suitable for modular applications. Their taller design and larger cable outlets in M50 format provide more space for wiring. This also means larger cable diameters and cable bundles can be connected conveniently.
The robust housings are made from high-quality die-cast aluminium and are highly resistant to corrosion. They withstand vibrations and high mechanical strain, and have a reliable seal rating of up to IP66/IP67. In addition, the conductive surfaces and seals provide reliable EMC protection.
The tall connectors are available in sizes B6 to B24 and are all connection-compatible with the market standard. With the new corresponding contact inserts for high-position applications, up to 46 signal contacts can be easily connected in one B24 connector. With Push-in connection technology, installation is direct and tool-free. The compact clamping chamber of the Push-in contact inserts provides high packing density, which previously could only be achieved with a conventional crimp connection.
