TE Connectivity has launched a circular hybrid connector (CHC), which combines power supply and data into a single connector allowing for increased design flexibility. It is suitable for use in controllers for hydraulic and pneumatic valves.
The CHC has eight power and four data contacts, designed for real-time machine automation applications that require a high-performance data connection and power up to 10 A. The connector claims to offer reliable connection technology to meet the demanding durability and quality requirements of real-time Ethernet applications in industrial automation. Using a retrofit platform, the product also offers optional inserts with 11 contacts plus PE (protected earth).
The connector meets the VARAN standard (Versatile Automation Random Access Network), the Industrial Ethernet-based protocol used in factory automation. Typical applications include welding, stamping, milling and injection moulding operations eg, it supports fast changeover times of moulds in moulding machines, while simplified cabling reduces installation time.
