M12 Male Connectors for Direct Integration
Automation components make considerable contributions to efficiency increases in production but are also subject to extreme cost pressure. To save costs, this M12 connector version can be "directly" integrated, meaning that the device housing thus becomes part of the connector since it can be produced in a single operation with the coding and the locking thread.
Potential savings: fully-automatic SMT soldering process and saving of threaded parts as well as their assembly share.
The coding is determined by means of the injection-molded or die-cast housing. Refer to the IEC 61076-2-101 for the dimensions for this. The sealing of the housing is performed via an O-ring, the assembly of which is optional. In addition, the turned contact seals the insulating body by means of special contours. The entire system is thereby water-proof, even when unconnected. Tightness with regard to casting compounds typically exists. This, however, must be tested in the respective project with the respective casting compound. Considerably different coefficients of expansion of the materials may lead to the necessity of the use of THR technology for better absorption of the forces that may affect the solder joints with casting technology due to temperature cycles and loads from vibrations and shocks.
ERbic CANbus
The redesigned ERbic connectors use the latest ERNI D-Sub connectors and the housing dimensions have been reduced to a compact design with a form factor adjusted to Siemens PLCs.
Features
• All parts are pre-assembled, only 1 mounting screw
• Extremely flexible due to:
- Spring clamp terminal
- Changeable cable clamps for different cable diameters fom 6 to 9 mm (8 mm pre-assembled, 7 mm enclosed)
• Best quality due to use of the new ERNI D-Sub connector generation
• Externally connectable termination resistor
• Optional diagnostic-interface
• Extra metallic stamped shield connection for optimal shield contact
• Processible with only one tool (screwdriver)
• Exchangeable ID plate for manuel or automatic labeling
• Due to the red lever the switch setting is well visible
• Compact design
• Large area for customer-specific labeling, neutral version or with custom company-logo
Technical Data
• Interface connector: D-Sub, female class 2
• PU connection: D-Sub, male class 2
• Cable termination: 2 x horizontal cable outlets can be covered by blind plate
• Cable diameter: 6 – 9 mm
• Cross section of cage clamp: 0.08 – 0.5 mm2 (0.75 mm2)
• Data transmission rate: max. 1 MBit/s (CAN-Spezification)
• Temperature range: -20 °C – +70 °C
• Permissible humidity: max. 75% at +25 °C, non-condensing
• Protection class: IP 20
• Housing material: Thermoplast UL94V-1
• D-Sub screw #4/40 UNC: slottet head screw
• UL approval: in preparation
• CE marking: ERbic connectors are passive components and do not need to be identified with CE marking acc. to EU directives.
ERbic Profibus
ERNI Electronics continuously expands its well established ERbic field bus connectors for the Profibus, CANbus and SafetyBus standards. Redesigned and easy to use Profibus switch versions with or without a programming interface are now available. The new field bus connectors benefit from the latest ERNI Type 8 D-Sub connector generation offering high precision, stability and contact reliability.
With the new ERbic Profibus versions the external dimensions have been reduced. The compact design offers a form factor adjusted to Siemens PLCs. All enclosed parts are preassembled. An exchangeable cable strain relief for cable diameters from 6 – 9mm (8mm premounted) is available. To meet various application requirements different well established cable connection techniques are offered, such as IDC terminals (provides fast connections and replaces the dismantling of the bus wires), cage clamp or screw terminals. The bus connectors can be imprinted using the standard ID plate.
The variable connection techniques and cable strain relief provide customers with highest flexibility for field bus connections. The new ERbic Profibus devices need only a standard screwdriver for assembly/disassembly and provide a perfect visibility of switch status due to red lever. There is a large area for custom labeling, while neutral versions and variants with custom company logo can be supplied.
The new Profibus connectors are designed for data rates up to 12Mbit/s in applications according to IP20. The complete in-house production ensures the proven ERNI quality across the total process chain from design, construction, assembly, soldering to inspection.
Features
• All parts are preassembled
• Use of the latest ERNI Type 8 D-Sub generation
• Exchangeable cable strain relief for cable diameters from 6 – 9 mm (8 mm premounted)
• Stamped, metallic cable-shield-connection
• Only a standard screwdriver is needed for disassembly
• Exchangeable label for hand- or machine-marking
• Perfect visibility of switch status due to red lever
• Compact design with form factor adjusted to Siemens PLCs
• Large area for custom labeling, neutral version or with custom company-logo
• Very easy to use
MiniBridge Cable-to-Cable Connection
With this expansion, the ERNI MiniBridge product line opens the door for several additional fields of application. The PCB cable system is predestined for the connection of decentral function units such as front plate displays, buttons, motors, fans or fuses. The target sectors are the automotive industry, industrial automation, aircraft industry, mechanical engineering, medical technology and consumer electronics.
With the MiniBridge female connector, cable connections could previously be created from PCB to PCB. Now this point-to-point connection can be made within the cable run.
This offers additional advantages. Previously, a PCB connection was required on at least one side of the cable. But now this connection can be omitted due to space or assembly reasons, for example. Units of a device must often be preassembled in such a way that a PCB is no longer accessible. Or alternatively, these are connections that manage without a PCB.
Solution: The MiniBridge cable-to-cable connection
ERNI offers both an IDC female connector and an IDC male connector for this cable connection; these are designed for the connection of flat cables or discrete wires.
Features
• Pitch 1.27 mm
• Number of pins: 6
• High current carrying capacity, depends on cable used, e. g. AWG 26 > 3.7 A per contact @ 20 °C, temp. limit 125°C
• Termination:
IDC, flat cable AWG 26, 7 stranded wires
IDC, discrete wire AWG 30, 7 stranded wires
• Modules:
Female connector, 180° cable outlet
Male connector, 180° cable outlet
