CABLES & CONNECTORS PRODUCTS CABLE PROTECTION SOLUTION CRAFTED FROM DISCARDED OCEAN FISHING NETS
To help address dangerous marine pollution, ABB Installation Products has pioneered industry-leading cable protection crafted from 50% recycle-based polyamide using primarily recovered fishing nets. A sustainable alternative to conventional
plastic-based systems used to protect critical power and data cables, ABB’s PMA EcoGuard PA6 RPPA conduit requires less energy and
water to produce, reducing 30% of upstream Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions and 50% of net freshwater use. High-performance wire and cable protection
is essential to powering electrical systems and production environments safely and reliably. PMA EcoGuard PA6 RPPA conduit, part of ABB’s EcoSolutions line of innovative and
HIGH PERFORMANCE MIL-AERO CONNECTORS
Available from Powell Electronics, Series 806 Mil-Aero connectors from Glenair meet key performance benchmarks for applications such as commercial and military aerospace, industrial robotics, transportation systems and more. These are designed for use in harsh vibration, shock and environmental settings, as well as high- altitude, unpressurised aircraft zones with aggressive voltage ratings and altitude immersion standards. They feature numerous mechanical design innovations including durable mechanical insert retention, radial seals and triple-ripple grommet seals. In addition, the reduced thread pitch and re-engineered
ratchet prevents decoupling problems, which solves one of the major problems of shell size 9 and 11 MIL-DTL-38999 Series III connectors. Glenair Series 806 Mil-Aero connectors
feature size 22HD and 20HD contacts as well as size 8 power and high speed El Ochito, quadrax, and fibre optic options. The devices also offer up to twice the number of contacts with no reduction in performance. Independent laboratory
testing has demonstrated that the connectors meet, and in many
cases even exceed, the requirements of the MIL- DTL-38999 specification.

BAYONET COUPLING CONNECTORS MEET MIL-DTL-26482
Connectors for demanding environments – including defence equipment, avionics, marine and naval equipment, medical systems, industrial automation, machine building, test and measurement, high performance communications systems and instrumentation – are available from Weald Electronics. The LMH range of bayonet coupling connectors provide a cost-effective combination of price,
size, weight, contact size, robustness and reliable quick-connect. These are designed to perform to the requirements of MIL-DTL-26482 (previously MIL-C-26482) Series 1 and Patt 105. LMH series connectors are also manufactured to IECQ-CECC spec BS/CECC 75201-003 and BS 9522 F0017. These are available for signal and power applications and are manufactured with bonded insulators and contacts that are 100% pressure-tested during assembly to provide a reliable environmental seal even when unmated. Key features of the Weald LMH connectors include: • Nine shell sizes and 25 shell styles • Contact arrangements from two to 61 ways • Maximum current rating of 45A • Peak working voltages up to 1500V – DC or AC. • Accessories include J sealing glands, protective caps and screen termination. Standard LMH connector shells are made from aluminium alloy with a choice of high corrosion resistance plating finishes. These include the popular RoHS compliant nickel or black zinc nickel and, predominantly for defence applications, olive drab and RoHS compliant zinc cobalt finishes may be specified. Accessories include LMA19 series backshells and LMD series protective caps.

binder is expanding its M12 portfolio to include panel mount connectors with a continuous M12x1 mounting thread, which are now equipped with assembled wires. In addition to the previously offered dip-soldered versions, this variant is now available in a second termination type. With these products, binder is targeting
applications in automation technology, such as process automation, sensor and actuator technology, and robotics. Here, the panel mount part is particularly suitable for installation in confined spaces, as it can be attached directly from the front, the company explains. Larger fastening threads for the coupling nut typical with M12, such as M16x1.5, are not required with this product. There is also a new sealing concept. The connector body is pressed into the panel mount connector sleeve on the connection side rather than the male connector side as before. Thus, the seal is made on the front side instead of on the rim of the male connector body, which ensures constant tightness of the design under industrial conditions. The male panel mount sleeve is made of lead-free brass and is a sustainable solution. It has been provided with a specific inner contour to securely fix the male receptacle. This contour also acts as a receptacle anti-rotation device. On request, the body of the male panel mount
connector can be pressed into the sleeve in 45˚ increments according to customer specifications. While moulding is possible, it is not necessary. For use in electromagnetically exposed environments, a shield plate may also be attached to the sleeve on the connection side. The panel mount connector can optionally be
attached with an anti-rotation device by means of a flattening on the M12 thread.
