Innovative Circular Connectors Allow Simple Mounting

Lapp’s Innovative right–angled A3 swivel base connectors are the latest addition to their Epic® LS1 and M23 range of Circular Connectors. With a patented top cover that allows for simple mounting without the need of any tools and its ergonomic and compact design, assembly couldn’t be any easier. 

For use by machine tool, motion drive and robotics manufacturers the Circon LS1 A3 is suitable for power connections and the Circon M23 A3 is for control signals. Both are unique in the market because of their patented swivel base mechanism that integrate a ratchet concept, protected against vibration, which holds the connector in 15° intervals adjustable over a 330° angle. This swivel mechanism is perfectly designed to allow for a clearly defined and constant movement of force, preventing any unintentional rotation when mounted on the device.

The M23 signal connector and LS1 power connectors comply with the requirements of DIN EN 61984, rated to IP68 and approved to UL, CSA and VDE standards. Both are offered in coupler, connector, and panel mount configurations that satisfy simple cable-to-cable and cable-to-machine requirements. They are ideal for control signal transmission and servo drive encoder feedback applications in the plastics, printing, analytical instrument, robotic and machine tool industries and any other industrial or commercial application where a compact, rugged connector is required.
