New HARTING Slim, EasyCon connectors serve rail industry’s need for more flexibility

March 29, 2018 By Mary Gannon Leave a Comment

HARTING has expanded its rugged Han HPR connector series for harsh environments with more options to help manufacturers of rolling stock assemble the increasingly complex electrical systems of modern equipment. The new Han HPR 22 Slim connector can accommodate up to four 250-A contacts, yet its flat profile is ideal for height-restricted spaces like the underside of a rail car. Its ultra-slim profile leaves room in wiring pathways for other critical systems. Its design was optimized in conjunction with a Viennese customer that needed a connector to fit a roughly eight centimeter gap between a tram body and bogie.

Harting.HPREasyCon_Harting__3b36e6b866HARTING also has added new sizes 16 and 34 to the Han HPR EasyCon line that was launched originally with size 24. EasyCon stands for easy to connect. The two-part hood and mounting housing are ready to be screwed together in a few quick, simple steps, with ample space inside for cables for car-to-car or motor connections, making it easier on installers working right on the equipment.

The dimensionally optimized EasyCon connectors also offer more high current carrying capacity and configuration possibilities than standard Han HPR interfaces. The size 16 can house 2-4 high current contacts (up to 2 x 650 A), suitable for connecting compressors, single wheel drives, and ventilation systems. It also can be configured as a hybrid with power, signal or data modules from HARTING’s Han-Modular lineup, with over 100 inserts to choose from. The size 34 comes in a straight version for traction motor connections and angled version for car-to-car jumper connections. They can accommodate up to four 650-A contacts each and as a hybrid can house up to 12 Han-Modular inserts.
