Connectors for harsh environments

No matter whether tractors, excavators or heavy construction machinery, the IVCM (Industrial Vehicles and Construction Machines) segment places high demands on connectors. The CONEC overmolded DT valve and VSS Superseal connector series offer optimum protection even in harsh environments such as underground mining, at low temperatures or in dusty, hot conditions.
Connector technology
The DT and VSS Superseal connector series are designed as cable to cable connection and are latched and locked via a latch with the mating connector. This connection is used to create a fast and secure sealed connection. The CONEC overmoulding ensures that the protection class IP67 / IP69K is fulfilled for the entire connector when mated. The overmoulded DT connector series is optionally available with an LED for signal status indication and protective circuitry against switching and interference voltages.

ISOBUS series

To extend the CONEC product range in the field of connection solutions for agricultural and construction machinery, the connectors for ISOBUS are included in the ready-made and overmoulded design. The overmould provides a continuous IP67 protection of the housing up to the hybrid cable and is suitable especially for harsh environments like agriculture, construction and mining industries. Connection is done via bayonet locking. Currently, three different cable variants are available which are specifically designed for agricultural applications.

M12x1 connector with plastic screw/nut

The M12×1 connectors overmolded with colored (blue, green, yellow, red, white, black) sleeve elements facilitate the assignment of complex cabling for applications in the municipal and agricultural sectors. Since the plastic materials used are resistant to weak acids, bases, alkaline solutions and alkaline cleaning agents, the area of application is where the chemical environment does not permit the use of zinc die-cast cable glands and stainless steel elements are too expensive. The M12x1 connectors, overmoulded with plastic screw elements, are available in 4, 5 and 8-pin versions, both axial and angled.

Junction system type S, M, L

The new CONEC junction system provides a flexible way to integrate moulded branches/outlets in electrical connection lines such as e.g. cable harnesses. This ensures that the continuous lead sheathing retains its full functional integrity even at the splice site (at the junction system). The junction system is at least IP67-protected, electrically tested at the factory and thus offers a robust, tamper-proof way to electrify machines in a safe way. The PUR moulding provides good resistance for applications in the agricultural industry. CONEC provides three different sizes of junction systems (S, M and L). Since the junction system is designed for cable entries and exits, there are almost unlimited possibilities to combine different connector systems. ds
