Magnetic connector replaces crocodile clip

March 2011 Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors

WIKA has developed a magnetic fast connector that simplifies the configuration and calibration of pressure and temperature transmitters. The innovative magWIK guarantees quick connection and is suitable for plug connectors up to 2 mm in diameter. It is easy to use, even under difficult operating and installation conditions, and enables a stable connection for configuration via HART, FF, Profibus and proprietary protocols.

The magWIK has a robust design with the connection contacts of the transmitter output made via a magnetic coupling. This coupling can easily be separated, to allow the appropriate terminals can also to be connected in succession. The new fast connector is available on its own, or it can also be ordered together with a transmitter or a calibration instrument.
