Pluggable feed-through housing eases cable installation
Harting is introducing a robust pluggable feed-through connector housing to its Han-Yellock connector family that eases the laying of cable through different rooms in industrial environments. The new panel feed-through not only facilitates handling, but also offers considerable robustness along with an IP 67 degree of protection in the plugged-in condition.
As well as being pluggable, the Han-Yellock feed-through systems features a bulkhead-mounted housing which has been complemented by the addition of a metal housing whose shape is similar to the upper part of the housing of the standard Han-Yellock connector.
Ease of handling results from the fact that cable sets can be completely pre-assembled and installed with the flange at the point of penetration. The robustness achieved by this arrangement means that the housings are impact resistant on both sides of the connector and provide IP 65 and 67 degrees of protection for inserts when mated.
The Han-Yellock feed-through housing is suitable for use in modular production lines consisting of machines in multiple rooms. The high IP protection class also makes this type of feed-through particularly suited for harsh environments where connections are exposed to fluids or dust.
