Circular Connectors - Accessories

GMA.0B.025.DB is a circular connector with angular key for quick mate/unmate applications. It features a unique design, with a diecast hood housing and a threaded coupling ring for a robust environmental seal. This type of connector is ideally suited for applications where high reliability, convenience, and rapid connection/disconnection are critical. In this article, we’ll discuss the application field and working principle of the GMA.0B.025.DB.

Application Field

The GMA.0B.025.DB is commonly used in panels and control systems for industrial, medical, and communication applications. Its robust sealed design makes it a great choice for industrial and transportation environments, including oil and gas, oil refinery, mining, and other hazardous applications. It’s also suitable for medical equipment, communications devices, and military applications. Its small size and light weight make it a good choice for mobile or portable applications.

Working Principle

The GMA.0B.025.DB utilizes a die-cast hood housing and a threaded coupling ring. The connector is keyed to ensure connection integrity and to prevent accidental mating with incompatible connectors. The threaded coupling ring creates a robust environmental seal when mated and twisted. Once twisted, the coupling ring and hood housing is compressed together, providing a secure connection and environmental seal. Disconnection is simple and easy; simply press the unlock buttons on either side of the connector and twist the connector until it separates.

The GMA.0B.025.DB is a reliable and convenient connector solution for robust and harsh environments, temperatures, and altitudes. It features two contacts and is rated for IP67 and UL/CSA approved for use up to 600 Volts. This connector can also be installed in both “in front” and “behind” panel configurations. It utilizes quick mate/unmate snap rings, eliminating the need for external tools.

Conclusion

The GMA.0B.025.DB is an ideal choice for applications where quick connection/disconnection, high reliability, and a robust environmental seal are needed. It offers a secure connection in hazardous locations and is IP67 rated with UL/CSA approval for use up to 600Volts. This connector can be mounted both in front and behind panels, and utilizes quick mate/unmate snap rings for easy connection and disconnection without the need of external tools.
