Locking clips add security for 620 and 720 series circular connectors
Two small, circular connectors series from binder are now available with locking clips, to increase security and safety. They have been developed in response to increasing demand in snap-in connection. The binder 620 and 720 series connectors are sub-miniature and miniature connectors designed for automation and medical applications. Both of these connector categories are seeing an increased demand for fast acting mating and other mating options, reports binder.
The binder 620 and 720 Series are subminiature and miniature connectors designed for use in automation engineering and medical applications where there is a growing demand for fast-acting mating and other mating options.
binder’s snap-in connectors are designed for a secure and reliable connection in conventional applications. The locking clips are designed for use where pronounced physical stress is present. An example would be where there is stress due to cable tension. They can also be used in applications where the connections cannot, under any circumstances, be interrupted either by unintentional or even unauthorised loosening, for example, suspended lighting in street lights, cable extensions in cable ducts as well as safety testing where users need reliable protection against accidental or malicious separation of the connection.
The locking clips have three snap-in lugs which provide the user with a clearly audible click when latched. For simple use, connecting and disconnecting is easily possible using one hand, says binder.
For even more security, the locking clips can be fastened using cable ties and importantly, the new accessory can be reused several times. The clips are available in black or white versions for clearer identification of the installation or to match a corporate identity or conform to the environment.
Franz Binder specialises in circular connectors for automation technology. The traditional family-owned business has its company headquarters in Neckarsulm, Germany and has 16 affiliated companies, two system service providers and an Innovation & Technology Centre.
