Circular Connectors from ITT Deliver True Modularity
December 6, 2021
ITT’s connector business has launched its ruggedized, modular circular series Veam MOVE-MOD™. The flexible design delivers power, signal, and data in a single connector by utilizing a range of snap-in modules with various contact layouts to match individual system requirements. The modular nature of these connectors give long-term flexibility to adapt, convert and expand connectivity post-design-in by simply swapping out modules
Developed for use in harsh environments, these ultra-durable connectors are suitable for a wide range of applications, including rail, heavy and off-road vehicles, alternative energy and infrastructure, robotics, and other industrial equipment.
One key advantage the circular MOVE-MOD series has over its rectangular equivalents is its suitability for size-restricted applications. In comparison to standard rectangular connectors with equivalent pin counts, MOVE-MOD has a condensed footprint. Toolless assembly and installation combined with ultra-secure bayonet coupling that features visual, tactile, and audible secondary locking confirmation ensure MOVE-MOD is a fast and easy solution to work with.
The series is available in two ultra-harsh-environment, RoHS and REACH compliant plating options that deliver 500-hour salt spray resistance. The first option is the proprietary Blue Generation® plating is a high-performance Zinc Nickel formulation that is conductive and offers excellent RFI shielding. While the second option, Black Hard Anodized plating, is a popular non-conductive option, also for use in extreme environments.
