Weald Electronics introduces the robust and durable LMG Heavy Duty series of circular connectors
Weald Electronics Introduces Durable LMG Heavy Duty Circular Connectors
Weald Electronics, a UK-based manufacturer, has announced the availability of their LMG Heavy Duty range of circular connectors. These connectors are specifically designed for use in harsh or hazardous environments, such as mining, marine, and geophysical applications.
The LMG Heavy Duty connectors boast a heavy-duty and water-proof design, ensuring reliable operation even in extreme conditions involving moisture, dust, and mechanical stress. Their robust construction is suitable for environments with mechanical vibration and potential exposure to corrosive elements.
Compliance with high standards is another key feature of these connectors. They meet industrial, military, and demanding field application requirements, offering a secure and stable connection that withstands physical and environmental challenges typical of hazardous spaces.
The LMG Heavy Duty connectors come with six contact arrangements, ranging from 2 to 19 contacts. They are environmentally sealed from IP67 to IP69K, providing protection against dust, water, and high-pressure water jets.
Two connector types are available: threaded coupling in brass only, and staple coupling in brass or stainless-steel construction. The staple coupling versions of the LMG Heavy Duty connectors can be secured with a hammer, working similarly to hydraulic connectors using a large metal staple for quick and secure locking. This design makes it easy to visibly confirm whether the connectors are locked, even under adverse conditions.
The conventional screw coupling versions of the LMG Heavy Duty connectors have a coarse ribbed coupling nut for easy handling with protective gloves. These connectors also have high shock and vibration capabilities, making them ideal for use in rugged environments.
It's worth noting that Weald Electronics holds IECQ - CECC, ISO, and QPL approvals. They also offer a backshell outlet accessory set for various cable types, and a wide range of backshells is available for the LMG Heavy Duty connectors.
Lane Electronics, a franchised distributor for several leading electrical and electronic connector manufacturers, serves as the sales channel for Weald Electronics products. However, the availability of Weald Electronics' accessories through Lane Electronics has not been specifically stated.
In summary, the Weald Electronics LMG Heavy Duty connectors combine ruggedness, environmental sealing, and mechanical reliability, making them well-suited for demanding and hazardous settings where failure is not an option. Their primary applications focus on the mining and marine industries, geophysical exploration, and other industrial automation sectors requiring durable, waterproof, and high-reliability connectors for critical instrumentation and control systems.
