From Hirschmann, this CA series universal signal and power connector is robust and reliable. The circular connectors attach to cables by solder termination, and have integrated screw holes to attach to panels or chassis. These field attachable bullet connectors feature a screw-locking system that ensures a secure and sealed connection, with a coarse thread that offers quick latch and disconnect.

The Hirschmann CA series industrial connectors are all-round connectors ideal for demanding environments. Whether it is plant engineering, agricultural technology or control and drive technology, these compact and tough connectors are suitable for a variety of control cable applications.

• Control Circuits
• Medical Equipment
• Power Management
• Chemical Industry

Thanks to their screw locking system and integrated strain relief, these robust universal connectors are protected to IP67. This means they are completely protected from solid matter ingress, such as dust and or sand. It also means the connection is protected against water and liquids, even to the point of temporary submersion.

The connector housing is constructed from impact resistant plastic, and offers a high level of resistance to vibration and impact stresses. With this level of protection the CA series of universal power and signal connectors are suitable for outdoor conditions and harsh industrial environments.

• Screw locking connector for quick and secure connection
• Easy Assembly suitable for in the field work
• Robust glass-fibre UL94V-0 housings
• Intermateable with industry standard connectors
• Integrated screw holes for panel mounting

Q: Is this connector easy to use?

A: The cable connector pieces assemble by screwing together, requiring no special tooling. However, the connector terminates by solder, meaning wires must be soldered on to the contacts. The panel mount/chassis mount sockets and plugs are secured by simple screw holes.

Q: Are there accessories available for these connectors?

A: There is a dust cap designed to maintain IP rating on both plugs (RS 115-2023) and sockets (RS 115-2045) when they are unconnected.

Use this circular connector plug from Belden Hirschmann with your electrical cable for protected, high-quality current transmission. The cable is held in place using a screw locking system, which ensures connections remain permanent and trouble-free. Thanks to its straight body shape, the connector holds the cable in a straight line from the socket, making cable identification simple even in a complex setup. The three internal pins mount to a socket and are protected by the hooded housing.

• Strain relief controls bend on the cable to prevent it from fraying or cracking
• IP67 (ingress protection) rating indicates the connector is dust-tight and protected against immersion in water of depths up to 1m for 30 minutes
• Polymer body has high tensile and compressive strength, preventing breakages in heavy-duty environments

• Machining applications
• Automotive assembly lines
• Construction machinery
• Agriculture equipment

This connector requires some straightforward assembly before it's ready to use. Its separate components push together and can be taken apart again if any maintenance or checks are required.
