Panel Interface Connectors

Oct. 14, 2009
Connecting to programmable devices without opening the enclosure is both a time-saver and a safety consideration. New panel connectors come in over 30 configurations.

AutomationDirect’s expanded ZIPport product line includes panel interface connectors in over 30 configurations. Designed to be mounted on the outside of electrical control panel boxes, the interface connectors act as pass-through connections, allowing the operator to interface with programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and other programmable devices without opening the control box.

Panel interface connectors are available with single, duplex or GFCI power outlets, as well as a no-power option. Designed for frame sizes six to 48, communications connectors available include D-sub, RJ45, RJ12, USB, Ethernet, and Data Highway; and units are available in various combinations needed for the typical control panel. A standard reset 3 Amp circuit breaker limits power output of the unit.

ZIPport panel interface connectors are NEMA and UL approved and are RoHS compliant.
