Single-ended cable assemblies allow easy ordering and connection with reduced lead times
LONDON, UK, 19 March 2019 – RS Components (RS), the trading brand of
Electrocomponents plc (LSE: ECM), a global multi-channel provider of
industrial and electronic products and solutions, has introduced a new
range of pre-wired, single-end-terminated cable assemblies ( https://uk.rs-online.com/web/c/connectors/power-connectors/heavy-duty-power-connector-kits/?applied-dimensions=4293626763,4294423028,4294430581
) based on HARTING’s popular Han series of connector components. The
assemblies use a range of commonly used cable and connector combinations
to provide a quick and easy way of addressing many basic cabling
requirements. They are available exclusively from RS Components.
By eliminating the need for customers to assemble their own
connectors from basic components, the new pre-wired cable assemblies
reduce not only the complexity of the ordering process but also lead
times and labour, allowing faster connection to end user equipment. They
also allow customers to reduce the level of cable inventory held on
site.
The new pre-wired connector range comprises 6-way (plus earth) and
10-way (plus earth) single-ended assemblies with either 1.5 mm2 or 2.5
mm2 wire gauge, available with 1m, 3m or 5m lengths of cable ready for
direct wiring into end user equipment. HARTING Han 6B and 10B series
hoods, 6E and 10E inserts, silver plated crimp contacts, and cable
glands are incorporated in the assemblies.
The control cable is finished in RAL7001 silver-grey polyurethane
and conforms to DIN EN 50525-1 (VDE 0285-525-1) standards, with easily
identifiable number coded cores clearly indicating core-contact
termination within the connector housing. The cable is highly resistant
to abrasion and tearing, and offers excellent bend radius
characteristics.
Both the 6-way and 10-way versions are rated to 500 V according to IEC61984, with a current rating of 16 A.
The HARTING Han series cable assemblies are now shipping exclusively from RS in the EMEA and Asia Pacific regions.
