The upside of having this large number of components from which to select the ideal connector solution for your application can sometimes have the downside of perhaps having too much to choose from.<\/p>\n<p><!--more-->For this reason Phoenix Contact has made it as easy as possible to make your selection by:<\/p>\n<p><strong>1-<\/strong>Laying out the catalogue 2 Heavycon heavy duty connectors in a very logical straight forward format.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2<\/strong>-Offering popular sizes\/configurations <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phoenixcontact.com\/online\/portal\/gb?1dmy&amp;urile=wcm%3apath%3a\/gben\/web\/main\/products\/subcategory_pages\/Plug-in_connector_sets_and_pre-assembled_sleeves_P-20-08-03\/daea61d8-aef0-473b-8d43-881b6b3f810d?cpn=blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">all in the same box<\/a> (effectively a kit in a box of all the parts required for a complete heavy duty connector)<\/p>\n<p><strong>3<\/strong>-And now we are pleased to announce the launch of our online heavy duty configurator.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright\" title=\"Heavycon configurator\" src=\"https:\/\/www.phoenixcontact.com\/assets\/images_ed\/local_gb\/web_content_1col\/pic_con1_gb_0018765_en.jpg\" alt=\"Heavycon configurator\" width=\"220\" height=\"248\" \/>You can configure the modular connectors in \u00a03D visualisation by using a drag-and-drop function. You can then download your configuration solution as a 3D file, e.g., in STEP-format. The advantage is that all configured connector components are contained in the 3D file.The product list can be exported, e-mailed or ordered directly.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of the configuration, you will also receive a solution ID, which you can send directly from the configurator to e-mail. You can access the configuration again at any time by entering the solution ID in the search field on our website, so you can always access your previous work\/solutions.<\/p>\n<p>More components are being added all the time. You can access the HEAVYCON configurator easily by using the web code #0003 into our website search or by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.phoenixcontact.com\/online\/portal\/gb\/pxc\/content_pages\/!ut\/p\/z1\/1ZVNc5swEIZ_Sw4-alZ8wxHT1sQZT2Knrg0XRkiCKmMEkQUO_fWVk05vwdegi6Sd99U-uwct5HCEXJJB1ESLVpKTuWe5X4T2Q5KuXGuz-pHYON6l6_vtox_7ewd-QZZA5uDwYdzCYUq93XmQTz_24cefrBjf8mfGH3wqsDw4DIJfYC9b1ZjiniGHvKOCQeaFDsU8rBALOEUuq2wU-r6FStfFTsAjEtnOVX1INsV2_31nMtFOQnbhJW0ZvzKb9J1qWU_1N645vTYQMq16DpniTCgT-klUzbWxtr3UaoQU30IOvhryNG_qzYs3smfGa82L9wnPjHdm_fW-XH_Xt_5oM1HEy-trHkNOW6n5m4ZjXXK5wCbxAjdEmOO_rOf_p8JoK1H3iuhWLfC5LynRvG7VWHSk5kb4m5NhRKzXJnLqayTk1SMNYqvORYdsjHC4wCWLMGV2hALL4ciNSIBCaleIEoeVoVMSHjAzh_KpMt4n2btgYlQ9c1mslsXTMVktoWvkKFC2HjZx6n5sXt2El7hqkvJPvEQTsdPQpZf47u4vbacUhw!!\/dz\/d5\/L2dBISEvZ0FBIS9nQSEh\/?cpn=webcode_0003&amp;productDetection=true&amp;redirectTarget=country?cpn=blog\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" class=\"broken_link\">following this link.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more information, contact Scott by email <a href=\"mailto:smulholland@phoenixcontact.com\">smulholland@phoenixcontact.com<\/a> or telephone 07908 583375.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Scott Mulholland, Product Manager- Industrial Components Anyone who has ever tried to configure a heavy duty connector from the main components (hood, base, inserts, glands etc) will know that the number of components to choose from is huge.
