ZDA-A-26-S Connectors, Interconnects

D-Sub Connectors are a type of connector widely used in many industrial applications. Among them is the ZDA-A-26-S, which is a locking type, resilient-locking connector. This type of connector is commonly used to connect I/O and signal ports in factory automation and other harsh environments. It comes equipped with a locking mechanism that ensures a secure connection between two devices and allows them to be safely removed and attached without losing signal integrity or causing any kind of damage.

The ZDA-A-26-S is designed to withstand extreme temperatures, vibrations, and dust. Its operating temperature range is from -40 to +85℃ and it has an IP67 environmental protection rating. It has excellent electrical characteristics, with a current rating of up to 14 Amps and an impedance of 30 Ohms. The insertion life is rated at 10k cycles and the rated voltage is 30V.

One of the benefits to using the ZDA-A-26-S is the locking system that comes with it. This is an important feature that helps to ensure a secure connection when it’s used with heavy machinery or in a high-vibration environment. The locking mechanism uses a pair of hooks which are engaged when two components with the same locking system are inserted into the connector. This allows them to be securely connected and also prevents accidental disconnection in extreme conditions.

In terms of connectivity, the ZDA-A-26-S has a co-axial contact which can be used to connect two devices together. This contact is insulated and can provide a reliable signal connection up to 25 metres in length. The diameter of the contact is 0.8mm and it is rated for up to 250 volts.

The working principle of the ZDA-A-26-S is quite simple. It works by creating an electrical contact between two devices by using a locking mechanism. Each device is equipped with two hook connectors that are inserted into the connector when two components with the same locking system are inserted into the connector. This ensures a reliable connection between the two components and prevents accidental disconnection. In addition, it also has a co-axial contact that allows a reliable signal connection up to 25 metres in length.

Overall, the ZDA-A-26-S is a great choice for harsh environments such as factory automation applications. It’s well-designed for extreme temperatures, vibrations, and dust. It also has a reliable locking system and a co-axial contact to ensure a secure and reliable connection. Additionally, its current rating of up to 14 Amps and its rated voltage of 30V make it a great choice for industrial applications where power and signal stability are essential.
