Ultra Compact Motor Connectors for Small Frame Motors

Small frame motors often have barely enough room for their own wiring. Ultra compact motor connectors from AP Technology deliver the key features of larger circular connectors in a smaller footprint, without giving up secure locking and environmental sealing. They are a good match for small servo motors, actuators and light robotic axes. Designers also value the rotatable mounting, as it allows the cable exit to be set after installation so it can point the right way for the cable route. Ytec and its single version, Itec, were designed for small frame motors that still need the technical features of larger M series connectors. They have a mounted height of only 20mm, rotate through 300° after installation, need only one mounting hole in the motor housing, and use an auto locking quick release fastener with an IP66/67 rating. Mechanical and colour coding prevent mismating. The crown clamp is a screen termination that gives multipole connectors a coax style EMC connection and IP66/67 sealing.

Fan out the screen, push together, turn in, and the clamp is assembled. There is no cutting of the braid and no twisting of the clamping ring and spacer, so assembly takes less time and the screen connection is more consistent. Buying is kept straightforward. There is no minimum order value on stocked products, cable can be cut to the lengths you need, and repeat requirements can be placed on scheduled or call-off orders. Custom labels and packaging are also available, which helps when parts are going straight to a production line or out to a site team.
