Housings / Enclosures

ERNI offers three different types of connector housings for D-Sub connectors acc. to DIN 41 652 and MIL C-24308: KSG 200, fully insulated housing with inner shielding plates; KSG 185, a housing with snap-in latches and/or screw locking & integrated coding; KSG 183, a housing with snap-in latches.
All three types of housings are two-piece designs which allow the wiring of the female or male connectors prior to the housing assembly. With the KSG 185, it is possible to lock the two housing halves with snap-in latches. A screw for vibration-proof applications is also available. The connector halves of Series KSG 183 and KSG 185 are screwed together after wiring. For applications with screw locking, the KSG 185 offers locking parts for thread types M3 and #4/40 NC-2 A.

ERNI offers the industry's widest array of cable housings, strain reliefs and guide elements. These complementary items to the DIN 41612 / IEC 60603-2 connector family are available for all popular types including B, C, D, F, H, Q and R and 1/2 sizes. The cable housings offer rear and two sided exit options, with strain relief for wire, jacketed cable or flat cables. The guide elements are available with keying and screw lock features for applications including: edgecards, backplanes front panel, rear panel and other 19" Eurocard subrack mounting applications.

The IDG-A enclosure is designed for modern applications in housing management equipment, measurement relays, modular time switches, light switching units and for modules in decentralized automation. This new slimline enclosure permits easy snap-on assembly onto DIN-rails with an installation width of only 17.5 mm. The snap together design permits ease of assembly and soldering of the complete PCB (with the terminals and components). Simply insert the PCB and snap together the bottom and the top parts. Easy cable termination via screw terminals or pluggable termination. You can install 2 or 3 smaller PCBs vertical to the bigger PCB. The vertical PCBs allow for the use of components requiring additional height (like transformers, relays, etc). The hinged transparent cover allows easy adjusting and protection of any switches and/or signalling devices.

The IDG-B DIN enclosures are fully insulated and fulfill the requirements of the machinery and car industry. The enclosures have the installation width of 35 mm for the IDG-B2, 70 mm for the IDG-B4, 105 mm for the IDG-B6 and 157 mm for the IDG-B9. They are designed to easily snap onto DIN-rails. Three different versions of the housing cover allow customer specific solutions. Commercially available PCB mounted terminal blocks, pluggable terminal blocks, or user specific connectors may be accomodated. The transparent front cover protects switching or signalling devices.

LDG-A miniature enclosures are engineered for quick and easy installation for standard DIN-rail or screw mounting. These non-metallic enclosures are ideal for housing electrical, electronic and electromechanical devices such as sensors, controllers, power supplies, monitors, timers and many other small electronic components. These enclosures, with a standard depth of 75mm (approximately 3") and an approximate height of 100mm (4"), come in a range of sizes (width) from 22.5mm (approximately 1") up to 224.7mm (approximately 9"). A simple snap-in cover and pre-assembled terminal housing block, for as few as 12 connections or up to 70 connections, make up the ERNI enclosure offering. Selective loading, pluggable termination, special colors and other special options and customizations are also available. These enclosures meet universal electrical standards including UL and CSA.

The LDG-S series of enclosures are fully insulated enclosures according to the specifications of the machinery and the automotive industries. Designed for easy snap-on assembly onto DIN-rails by an integrated snap-on clip. These enclosures facilitate economical device assembly with optimal utilization of space. For the termination of the conductors of the cable 2 enclosure versions are availible:

• pluggable terminals for easy servicing and exchange (commercial pin headers on the pcb).
• screw terminals for a fixed termination of the conductors.
