Interconnection


Miniature waterproof plastic connectors

8 August 2007 Interconnection

The HR30 connector series from Hirose is designed for test and measuring equipment, portable devices, instrumentation, industrial devices, recreational equipment, I/O applications and other applications requiring use of lightweight, corrosion-resistant quick-mate/release cable connections.

The connectors are protection rated to IP67, providing complete protection against dust and water penetration when submerged 1 metre deep for half an hour, when mated with the corresponding connector or protective cap. The built-in lock/release mechanism securely locks mated connectors, while allowing quick disconnection by simply pulling on the plug's release collar. Moulded-in grooves prevent hand slippage when pulled. The round configuration of the collar allows easy side-by-side panel mounting and will not snag on objects when the cable is pulled out.

Multiple polarising keys protect the contacts from misalignment or attempted insertion of the wrong connector, while assuring correct mating between the corresponding connectors. Permanent alignment indicators in a contrasting colour on all connectors aid in correct alignment and engagement. Glass reinforced thermoplastic compounds and non-corrosive components are used in all assemblies.
