magWIK magnetic connector for sensor configuration/calibration

WIKA is introducing the magWIK magnetic quick connector that simplifies the configuration and calibration of pressure and temperature transmitters. The patented magWIK ensures a quick connection and, at the same time, prevents the contacts from slipping off. WIKA claims that it is now the only company offering a viable alternative to using crocodile clips.

This innovative accessory is suitable for plug connectors of diameter 2mm. It is easy to use, even under difficult operating and installation conditions, enabling a stable connection to be made for configuring instrumentation via Hart, FF, Profibus and proprietary protocols.

The magWIK has a robust design with insulation that is described as unbreakable. A magnetic coupling connects to the transmitter output, so the connection can be made and disconnected quickly and easily. Appropriate terminals can therefore be connected one after the other, or connected to separated points.

WIKA's magWIK magnetic connector is available on its own or it can be ordered with a transmitter or calibration instrument. Follow the link for more information about the magWIK magnetic quick connector.
