Introduction

Power Entry Connectors – Inlets, Outlets, Modules – provide a safe, reliable and continuous flow of power and data from a source to a device. 6EC4 is an efficient connector system that enable fast and easy installation of a projector, notebook, and other electronic equipment. This article explains the application field and working principle of 6EC4 connector.

6EC4 Application Field

The 6EC4 connector is designed to address the need for power and data connection ports solutions in industrial and commercial applications. This versatile and high quality power connector is compliant with the IEC 60309 standard and meets requirements for specific categories of applications, such as power entry for electrical switching devices, control equipment\'s, weighting machines, lab test equipment’s and other electric devices. The device has also been tested according to UL 1059. The 6EC4 connector allows for the installation of a power cord on a pivotable base system. The base plate is designed with holes so that the cord is able to move freely and plugs and sockets of different wattage and circuit specification can be used. In addition, the modular design makes the connector suitable for a wide variety of applications, including on-site maintenance applications.

Working Principle of 6EC4 Connector

The 6EC4 connector is based on a common power and data connection system that works on the principle of electrically connecting a plug and a socket in unison. Power entry into the device involves attaching the appropriate power connector to the appropriate socket. For example, a 12 V DC plug can be attached to a 12 V DC socket to generate an electrical connection.The 6EC4 connector is designed to protect against shock and over heating during the plugging and unplugging of power and data cables. It relies on a special twist and lock mechanism to provide safe connections and to prevent accidental disconnections. The device also incorporates safety features such as a fuse for protection against power spikes and overloads. The 6EC4 connector also features a built-in latch that prevents accidental disconnections. This latch is important for providing a secure and reliable connection. The latch is also designed to be released with a simple pull or slide motion. The connector is also designed with an ergonomic indicator that quickly shows whether the plug has been securely locked to the socket or not.

Final Thoughts

The 6EC4 Power Entry Connector is ideal for a variety of industrial and commercial applications. It is designed for easy installation and provides the necessary safety features for the protection of personnel and equipment. The twist and lock mechanism provides secure and reliable connections as well as convenience. It is also suitable for applications such as on-site maintenance.
