In the current economic climate ways of reducing operating costs is always high on the agenda. Therefore reducing overheads by minimising stock holding, reducing time spent on design and using components that are quick and easy to assemble all contribute to savings.
The new Heavycon Evo industrial plug-in connectors offer opportunities in all these areas.
Being able to combine the cable glands in both vertical and horizontal orientation on the same sleeve housing allows users to reduce the number of different housings required by 70% compared to aluminum housings. The matching cable glands for clamp sizes M20 to M40 can be freely combined with any sleeve and base element in sizes B6, B10, B16, and B24, therefore minimising the number of variants.
The addition of the new range of PT contact inserts offers the benefit of assembling ferruled or solid core cables without tools, using Phoenix Contact’s proven push in technology.The combination of reduced wiring time, together with stock holding and increased availability all combine to reduce costs.
Heavycon Evo will also interface with the industry standard sized aluminum die-cast heavy duty connectors. Standard B series contact inserts from either PxC or other manufactures are also supported.This interchangeability allows opportunities for phased migrations to a full PxC solution.
This new range of high quality plastic industrial plug connectors can be installed in temperatures from -40 °C to +100 °C and include leading PE contacts. The use of fiberglass-reinforced polyamide fully compatible with industry standards enables failsafe use in a wide range of applications.
