Intermateable with
MIL-DTL-5015 connectors

A new range of high reliability, rugged, RoHS-compliant Circular Connectors released by Harwin meets the high standards of Mil-DTL-5015 yet is priced to be cost-effective for commercial and industrial applications.

For use in harsh and demanding environments the rugged high specification, cadmium-free range also features free plug, panel mount and cable connector orientations in a number of popular shell and layout options. These cost-effective solutions will offer benefits in power generators, fixed and portable industrial equipment, control cables, machine tools and robotics to name a few market areas.

Paul Gillam, Product Marketing Manager at Harwin commented: "Commercial and industrial product designers are often faced with the challenge of choosing a rugged, high reliability connector for use in harsh and demanding environments that may require full environmental sealing. With low product cost and RoHS compliance being placed high on the list of requirements up to now it has not been an easy task to select an ideal connector. Harwin's new range of RoHS-compliant, low cost, circular connectors now offer an effective solution in these challenging conditions.”

A new Datamate connector offers up to 96 contacts combined with low insertion force. The M83 three-row connector incorporates specially-designed female contacts that require a mating force of only 0.2 to 1N, yet delivers the same high-reliability performance as existing Datamate connectors. Conforming to BS 9525-F0033 M83 connectors can withstand high levels of shock, acceleration and vibration in addition to a large number of mating cycles, all without loss of performance. M83 connectors can combine mixed signal, power and coax contacts.

New 8, 12 and 16-way versions of Harwin’s rugged Hot Shoe connector technology enable rapid and simple connection, yet tolerate mating misalignment and resist dust, water, and chemical ingress. Previously available only in custom configurations, standard Hot Shoe connectors employ spring-loaded contacts, which maintain a positive contact force against the mating half of the connector, ensuring reliable connection even under the most demanding conditions.

Flexible, high-quality cable harness from Harwin addresses the needs of OEMs in high-reliability applications such as military, aerospace, medical and industrial controls. The assemblies are based on Harwin’s high-reliability Datamate interconnect range but can also include components from other manufacturers as well as high-specification crimping. Harwin cable harnesses have been developed for use in aircraft control panels, undersea exploration equipment, military communication systems and flight-line safety checks.

New J-Tek Hood Kits from Harwin allow customers make their own robust cable assemblies based on Datamate high-reliability connectors. The kit comprises a J-Tek Datamate connector with a hermaphroditic-style hood and pre-fitted jackscrews. Separate screws are provided for joining both halves of the hood to provide a very strong and ergonomic connection. The hood kits eliminate the need for a special over-moulding on cable assemblies and are available in 6-, 8-, 10-, 12-, 14-, 20-, 26-, 34-, 42- and 50-way versions and can be used in any cable-to-board or cable-to-cable assembly requiring J-Tek Datamate connectors.
