Han DDD: Secure signal transmission with minimum space requirements
November 26, 2019
The Han DDD industrial connector is currently the most consistent representation of miniaturisation in the robotics sector. The monoblock expands the benefits of the Han D Series to enable the strongest possible transmission on minimum installation space. The triple “D” stands for maximum contact density.
The need for space-saving solutions is a fundamental theme in machinery, robotics and automation. It is what prompted HARTING’s development of the Han D Series, which stands for high contact density and small dimensions. The Han DDD has twice the number of contacts than the previous standard – yet retains the same dimensions and electrical characteristics.
The “Triple D” can transmit signals or power with max. 107 contacts. The electrical power is equivalent to that of its sister product, the Han DD (max. 250 V / 10 A). To simplify handling in automation or robotics, HARTING also offers accessories such as grip panels and guiding pins/bushes.
The higher power density was achieved using the following methods:
– extending the creepage distances between the contacts by inserting attachments to the insulation body;
– using an improved PE connection to free up insulation material space for additional contact chambers;
– employing an offset arrangement of chambers to reduce the distance between the rows of contacts.
The Han DDD can thus optimise the use of interfaces in conventional control cabinets. Space-saving applications are possible in all industrial sectors where electrical connections play a role.
