Sockets
Sockets are generally used in automation technology to connect sensors and actuators with connectors to splitter boxes.

Even when fastened by hand, a perfect lasting seal of sensor and actuator connections is guaranteed. The integrated end stop protects the O-ring against destruction caused by an over-tightened coupling nut. Even in harsh industrial environments, the connectors are protected against unintended loosening by a special vibration protection. Some types are fitted with highly visible LEDs for operation and switching status indication.

Their high-grade stainless steel nut and food-grade sealing materials

qualify the ecolink EVT and EVF sockets for use in hygienic and wet areas. The sockets are resistant to frequent high-pressure cleaning with aggressive cleaning agents. Thanks to their wide temperature range and their insensitivity to fast temperature changes they are particularly suited for use in the food and beverage industry.

Cable plugs
Cable plugs are frequently used for connecting sensors and actuators with connection terminals to splitter boxes or modules in automation technology.

Even when fastened by hand, a perfect lasting seal of splitter and module connections is guaranteed. They offer high protection against moisture ingress and high material resistance to aggressive liquids.

The ecolink EVT and EVF cable plugs are particularly suited for use in hygienic and wet areas. They are resistant to frequent high-pressure cleaning with aggressive cleaning agents. Thanks to their wide temperature range and their insensitivity to fast temperature changes the cable plugs are particularly suited for use in the food and beverage industry.

Jumper cables
Jumper cables feature a plug and a socket. They are used for the connection of sensors to splitter boxes and modules.

They ensure reliable and permanent sealing of the sensor and splitter connections even when mounted without tools. The integrated end stop protects the O-ring against destruction caused by an over-tightened coupling nut. Even in harsh industrial environments, the connectors are protected against unintended loosening by a special vibration protection. Some types are fitted with highly visible LEDs for operation and switching status indication.
