Working Principle

The 040-0060-000 circular connector accessory is designed to work in conjunction with a variety of other connectors. Its design consists of a polymeric housing with multiple terminals designed to accept a range of pins or slots depending on the application. The connector has a strain relief designed to reduce wear on the cable from the loads of the application. The coating applied to the surface helps protect the connector from corrosion and wear, making it suitable for outdoor and extreme environments.

When connecting, electrical current is applied to the terminals and energizes the pins in the attached connector. The pins push the pins of the connector together, creating a solid connection. The strain relief helps to reduce strain on the cable, allowing for a stronger and more reliable connection. The polymer housing helps to reduce vibration from torque and other loads.

Conclusion

The 040-0060-000 circular connector accessory is a versatile and reliable solution for many different applications. Its strain relief protects the cable from wear, while its corrosion-resistant coating makes it suitable for a range of environments. Its easy to install design makes it an ideal option for many different applications, including audio/video signal transmission, automotive and industrial automation, communications and networking, and medical and professional security systems.
