The Han B industrial connector housing is also suitable for up to IP67. HARTING standard housings are said to offer the user optimal protection against outside physical influences. The existing Han B housing product range provides IP65 protection when locked and mated. The bulkhead-mounted housing surpasses this level with greater IP67 protection.
The housing’s special flange prevents water from penetrating into the connector and consequently offers suitable protection for the contact points in the housing interior. At the same time, the circumferential collar offers protection while also preventing the seal from sliding off inwardly or outwardly, and consequently offers solid support. The IP67 housing also has a stable seal that is able to offset uneven sections, which provides additional protection against penetrating water.
No extra costs arise when the IP67 bulkhead-mounted housing is installed, as the cut-out corresponds to the dimensions of the existing Han housing portfolio. The bulkhead-mounted housing is locked with the company’s Han-Easy Lock levers, which allow a high contact pressure level when closed and consequently also provides optimal sealing between the hood and the bottom housing.
The IP67 flange is a systematic addition to the company’s housing program and one that raises the protection level in application against outside influences. The housing’s potential applications range from wind turbines, cranes and switching stations to the rail sector. In all of these areas, operational reliability is ensured also under extreme conditions.
