• Control Circuits
• Medical Equipment
• Power Management
• Chemical Industry

Thanks to their screw locking system and integrated strain relief, these robust universal connectors are protected to IP67. This means they are completely protected from solid matter ingress, such as dust and or sand. It also means the connection is protected against water and liquids, even to the point of temporary submersion.

The connector housing is constructed from impact resistant plastic, and offers a high level of resistance to vibration and impact stresses. With this level of protection the CA series of universal power and signal connectors are suitable for outdoor conditions and harsh industrial environments.

• Screw locking connector for quick and secure connection
• Easy Assembly suitable for in the field work
• Robust glass-fibre UL94V-0 housings
• Intermateable with industry standard connectors
• Integrated screw holes for panel mounting

Q: Is this connector easy to use?

A: The cable connector pieces assemble by screwing together, requiring no special tooling. However, the connector terminates by solder, meaning wires must be soldered on to the contacts. The panel mount/chassis mount sockets and plugs are secured by simple screw holes.

Q: Are there accessories available for these connectors?

A: There is a dust cap designed to maintain IP rating on both plugs (RS 115-2023) and sockets (RS 115-2045) when they are unconnected.

Maintain high-quality data transfer with this circular mount connector from Belden Hirschmann. You can secure it to a cable using the screw termination method – simply tighten the wire in place on the conductor strip, ensuring a firm hold. This mount connector's three-component design is easy to assemble. Just push it in place and it will retain its firm grip during use. You can easily take the connector apart for repair and replacement of individual parts, reducing waste.

• Copper-zinc (CuZn) contacts with gold and silver plating to prevent corrosion
• Polyamide (PA) housing keeps its shape in heavy-duty applications and provides high-strength protection
• Operating temperature range of -40°C to +90 °C for use in challenging environments
• Straight body positions cables in line with the socket, making them easy to identify

• Articulated robots
• Car assembly lines
• Programmable automation
• Stretch-wrapping machines

Yes, the connector has an IP67 (ingress protection) rating. This indicates that it's dust-tight and the interior cable is protected against the effects of immersion in water at depths between 1cm and 1m for 30 minutes.
