Hirschmann Circular Connector, 3 + PE Contacts, Cable Mount, M22 Connector, Socket, Female, IP67, CA Series

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 an integrated strain relief to ensure a secure cable connection. 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
• Cable clamp by means of integrated reducing strain relief which maintains IP67 sealing
• Cable clamping range 6 - 12mm
• Overall body length 61mm

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.

Attach this circular mount connector from Belden Hirschmann to your cable to allow for effective data transmission. It's straightforward to connect to a wire using the screw termination method, where the cable's conductors are tightened into place. The Hirschmann connector comes in three parts that push and twist together securely. You can take them apart again easily for maintenance and repair, or to replace a faulty or damaged component without wasting the others.

• Durable polymer housing resists physical wear from friction and impact trauma to ensure the connection remains protected over time
• Temperature range of -40°C to +90°C during operation for use in environments exposed to harsh cold or extreme heat
• Silver contact plating prevents rust from forming and causing corrosion in the connection

• Waste handling vehicles
• Machine part production
• Process automation
• Factory conveyers
• Aircraft manufacturing

Yes, this industrial connector has an IP67 (ingress protection) rating. This means its seal has been tested to ensure no dust gets through and it can withstand water up to a depth of a metre for thirty minutes, so it's well suited to harsh washdown environments such as factories.
