Heavy-duty connectors suit motors and machinery
The HTS heavy duty connector series from Tyco Electronics is being extended with a new range of plastic connectors for motion-control, industrial machinery applications (eg transportation belts/equipment, pumps and positioning equipment) and electrical motor drive applications (eg cabinets and control panels, power supplies and heating controls).
Highly-reliable and cost-effective HG-Q.4/2, HG-Q.8 and HG-Q.10 series connectors are available in standard and EMV shielded versions and benefit from double-sided cable entry as well as proven standard hoods. Exclusive HG-Q.10 motor connector housings for direct mounting on motor devices are available in seven standard sizes and are suitable for HG-Q.10.Bu.C socket housings. HG-Q.4/2 and HG-Q.8 connectors are available with straight and right-angled hoods and cable-to-cable coupler housings.
With an operating temperature range from -40 up to +125degC, the new HG-Q series connectors conform with Desina and ISO 23570-3.4 standards and meet IP65 specifications when in the locked position. EMV protection in the plastic housings is achieved using standard HG-Q-gland fittings instead of expensive shielded gland fittings.
The range of HG-Q series connectors also includes accessories such as glands for 4.0 up to 15.5mm cables, flange seals and coding accessories, as well as standard tool and die sets.
