Lapp Cable has introduced the latest addition to the Epic LS1 and M23 range of circular connectors. These innovative right-angled connectors feature a patented top cover that allows for simple mounting and an ergonomic design that facilitates easy assembly.
For use in machine tool, motion drive and robotics applications, the Circon LS1 A3 are designed for power connections and the Circon M23 A3 for control signals. Both are unique in the market because of their patented swivel base mechanism and integrated ratchet concept, which holds the connector in 15 intervals, adjustable over a 330 range. This swivel mechanism is designed to prevent any unintentional rotation when mounted on equipment subject to sudden impacts or vibrations.
The M23 signal connector and LS1 power connectors comply with the requirements of DIN EN 61984, rated to IP68 and approved to UL, CSA and VDE standards. Both are offered in coupler, connector, and panel mount configurations that satisfy simple cable-to-cable and cable-to-machine requirements. They are suited to control signal transmission and servo drive encoder feedback applications in the plastics, printing, analytical instrument, robotic and machine tool industries or any other industrial application where a compact, rugged connector is required.
M23 signal connectors are available in seven housing arrangements that can accommodate three different keying positions. Inserts are offered in a choice of seven contact configurations for mounting male or female, crimp or solder contacts. Common to all arrangements are a rugged nickel-plated zinc body, plastic contact insulation body and gold plated electrical contacts. Cable mounted arrangements also include an integral EMC shield ring and a built in Skintop gland.
They are offered in a variety of insert configurations with either crimp or solder contacts available clockwise or counter-clockwise orientation. Used in combination, they connect one cable with another (cable coupler) or a cable to fixed wiring in a control enclosure or on a machine, instrument or motor.
A colour coding system provides positive identification and visual differentiation in multiple connector installations whilst colour coded keying rings ensure correct mating selection inapplications where several connectors are mounted in the same location.
LS1 power connectors are available in five housing arrangements and two contact configurations. Common to all arrangements are a rugged nickel plated zinc body, plastic contact insulation body and gold plated electrical contacts. Like the M23 connectors, cable mounted arrangements also include an integral EMC shield ring and the highly regarded Skintop gland.
