12-pole version connector
02 January 2017
The recently introduced HEC harsh environment connector from binder is now available in a 12-pole version. Known as series 696 the HEC connector is protected to IP68, IP69k, withstands high-pressure washing, has excellent resistance to UV, temperature fluctuations, acid rain, salt spray, ozone and other pollutants.

Suitable for agricultural, construction, process engineering, water purification and recycling equipment, traffic and signalling systems and similar applications, the HEC range has a secure, fast, three-point bayonet locking system while a robust coding mechanism prevents incorrect orientation and provides over 1000 mating cycles. The connector uses a variety of crimp contacts to achieve a secure vibration proof termination.
The new version has 12 silver-plated crimp contacts rated to 5A and 250V to complement the existing eight-pole hybrid version with four signal contacts and 3 +PE both of which can accommodate a variety of wire gauges.
