The CONEC SlimCon series is a very compact version of IP67 D-SUB connectors. The special feature is a small, one-piece zinc die-cast housing.
The connectors are designed for rear panel mounting and are in mechanical contact with the surrounding sealing surface on the panel. Sealing to the housing is achieved via a black seal. The circumferential sealing surface ensures that there is always uniform contact pressure on the seal. This prevents the seal from being overpressed, ensuring secure installation and consistent sealing during operation.
The housing cut-out for the CONEC SlimCon series corresponds to that of other IP20 D-SUB connectors, so no new cut-outs are required and it is possible to convert from standard IP20 systems to the IP67 system of the CONEC SlimCon series. The one-piece zinc die-cast housing makes the new CONEC SlimCon D-SUB connectors – similar to the CONEC Solid Body series – an extremely mechanically robust interface with reliable IP67 protection. Due to its design, however, a reduction in the occupied surface area of 48% to 52% is achieved compared to a standard IP67-protected D-SUB connector.
The CONEC SlimCon series is available in housing sizes 1-3 with the standard pole numbers 9-, 15-, 25-pol as well as the high density pole numbers 15-, 26- and 44-pol. The 2W2C, 5W5 and 7W2 layouts are available as combination connectors. Other housing sizes and pin counts are available on request.
In addition to the variant for rear panel mounting, a variant with an open threaded insert is also available. This variant offers the option of overmoulding by the customer and therefore an overmoulded cable version with IP67 sealing. A suitable lifting screw is also available.
All in all, the CONEC SlimCon series is ideal for industrial and harsh environments thanks to its small design and one-piece zinc die-cast housing.
