Schuster Electronics Offers Hirose HR30 Series...

Hirose Electric Co. has expanded its popular HR30 Circular Connector Series by developing an option that accepts a user-specified over-molded strain relief. The over-mold feature is ideal for demanding applications that require durability and environmental protection, in a cost effective package.

Medical, marine, communications, security, and industrial markets will benefit from the simplified assembly and reduced overall costs of the over-mold strain relief. Additionally, the over mold capability prevents damage caused by tampering or unauthorized assembly. This HR30 product enhancement is available in all shell sizes and enables customers to specify multiple over-mold strain relief designs including straight, right angle, and 45°. The HR30 series has a lightweight design with simple push-pull operation and is available in solder or crimp termination.

"The HR30 has been one of Hirose's more popular series for the past 10 years," said Rick van Weezel, vice-president of sales and marketing for Hirose Electric USA. "This over-mold capability adds design flexibility to a robust and proven product."

Insulation resistance is 1000 MW at 100 Vdc, with a maximum contact resistance of up to 30 mW, at 1 ADC. Current rating is 5A (3 positions) and 2A (6, 10, 12 positions), with a voltage rating of 100 Vac (3 positions) and 30 Vac (10 and 12 positions). Operating temperature ranges from -25°C to +85°C.

FEATURES & BENEFITS:

• Small size
  • Short in length when fully terminated and mated.
• Water and dust protected
  • IP67 protection rating: Complete protection against dust penetration and against water penetration when submerged 1 meter deep for half hour. Mated with corresponding connector or protective cap.
• Simple pull lock release
  • Built-in lock/release mechanism securely locks mated connectors while allowing quick disconnection by simply pulling on the plug’s release collar. Molded-in grooves prevent hand slippage when pulled. The round configuration of the collar allows easy side-byside panel mounting and will not snag on objects when the cable is pulled-out.
• Light weight, corrosion resistant
  • Glass reinforced thermoplastic compounds and noncorrosive components are used in all assemblies.
• Contact protection and self- alignment
  • Multiple polarizing keys protect the contacts from missalignment or attempted insertion of the wrong connector, while assuring correct mating between the corresponding connectors.
• Visual alignment indicators
  • Permanent alignment indicators in a contrasting color on all connectors aid in correct alignment and engagement.
• Built-in cable strain relief
