Connector System Saves Space

June 4, 2010
Just 16mm wide, the 713 Series MCS Mini-HD Double Row Connector System is said to trim front-panel space by up to 40%.

The system is a low-voltage wire-to-board connector for control circuits such as I/O interfaces and sensor cables. A high-density design provides rear-side Cage Clamp terminals that allow factory or in-field wiring. It offers exclusive locking, disconnection and marking features. Select models carry a dual-purpose lever that doubles as a lock and disconnection aid. The connector system provides hands-free wiring for conductors 28-16 AWG. Mating halves are 100% protected against mismating, says the vendor, with additional coding available. Separated pin slots are designed to prevent damage and make the headers touch-proof when unplugged (IP20). The system accommodates 6-36 poles in three variants: standard connector, lever-equipped and screw-interlock for vibration-prone applications.
