Rugged Circular Connectors for Sensors in Braking Systems and High Shock, Vibration Applications

Overview

Safety critical applications with high vibration and extreme temperature need especially designed, robust and reliable connector systems which must work under extreme temperature, mechanical shock and vibration, difficult access, water or dirt and dust ingress, and fretting corrosion.

Smiths Interconnect has designed specialized connectors that withstand this wide range of challenges thanks to the highly reliable Hyperboloid contact technology and their specific compact and ruggedized design.

The connector system provides EMI shielding protecting critical signal integrity and ensures space saving and safe and secure connection.

The key features of the connector are the highly reliable Hyperboloid contact technology, which is specially designed for high shock and vibration applications and minimizes service requirements, therefore yielding lower total lifecycle expenditure. Discover how the connector's compact and ruggedized design ensures space saving and safe connection with a secure locking coupling nut for critical applications, with high level of vibrations and shock in five axes as brakes, boogies sensors, gangway crossing cables, high temperature sensors; the EMI shielding protecting critical signal integrity (SIL4 transmissions). Explore the easy cabling and availability for custom configurations with limited parts and accessories as cable back shell.
