Motor adaptor eases connector installation

To ease the installation of industrial connectors onto motor junction boxes an adaptor allows an angled connector to be fitted to a standard PG 13.5 cable entry with a choice of mountings.

A new adaptor designed to ease the installation of industrial connectors onto motor junction boxes has been introduced by Harting. The new Han 3A adaptor allows an angled connector to be fitted to a standard PG 13.5 cable entry with a choice of mounting positions. The circular nickel-plated brass adaptor plate contains 12 holes, allowing the housing to be turned in steps of 30deg after termination.

This ability to orient the connector in a number of different positions makes it an attractive option for motor manufacturers or installers who are often faced with fitting connectors into restricted spaces.
