Screened Hybrid Connectors for Noisy Industrial Environments

Screened Hybrid Connectors for Noisy Industrial Environments can be approached as a practical engineering requirement: the component or assembly must suit the equipment, its operating conditions and the way it will be installed. In this application, the priority is combined connections designed with screening in mind where drives generate interference. AP Technology works with UK and international manufacturers, subcontractors and systems integrators on specialist interconnection requirements.

Applications and engineering considerations

Consider variable speed motor installations and industrial plants: poor matching of the cable, connector and installation arrangement can cause rework even where each individual component is sound. Intercontec hybrid connector solutions combine power and signal contacts in a coordinated connection architecture. AP Technology discusses M23 723 htec and M32 Twintec appro

Choosing a suitable specification

Key details to confirm include termination method, cabling segregation and EMC design. Designers should also review the operating environment, connection orientation, service life expectations and the complete mating or cable system. A hybrid interface can reduce separate connection points, but electrical and mechanical details become more important. Review the power requirement, digital feedback protocol, signal contacts, shielding and the correct matching cable before making a choice.

Supply and technical support from AP Technology

AP Technology can bring together the connector, cable and custom assembly discussion for motor and drive manufacturers. Its expertise is particularly relevant where single-cable technology must suit a specified controller, motor and installation method. At enquiry stage, it helps to provide the equipment manufacturer, intended duty, operating environment and any legacy connector or cable reference. Where the requirement is bespoke, a wiring schedule or drawing is particularly valuable.
