• 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.

This circular connector is designed for industrial applications, featuring a robust panel-mounted socket with a flange configuration. With 6 contacts plus protective earth, it supports cable diameters ranging from 6mm to 12mm, making it suitable for various electrical setups. The socket offers reliability and durability in challenging environments, operating within a temperature range of -40°C to +90°C.
