Harwin – Industrial C90 circular connector now with full 360 degree EMC braid protection

Via a new series of screening braid adapters, Harwin has announced that users of its C90 industrial range of circular connectors can now benefit from 360 degree EMC screening.

Fully RoHS-compliant and available from stock in many standard sizes, the new adapters are manufactured in black zinc nickel plated aluminium alloy and enable easy connection of RFI and EMI screening braid to Harwin’s popular C90 connector series.

A choice of termination is available. The first option is a constant-force spring system, allowing termination without special tooling. Alternatively, a Tie-Dex Micro Band system may be used which is easily terminated using industry-standard application tooling. Both termination styles provide full 360 degree attachment of the braid ensuring optimum screening performance, says the company.

Product manager, Paul Gillam, said: “Designed for use in harsh industrial environments, agricultural and construction equipment, these adapters, together with the appropriate braids, provide proven EMC performance. Devices are in stock now for immediate delivery.”
