May 21, 2012 - LQ Mechatronik-Systeme releases W-TEC 15 universal power cable.The ready-made, unshielded W-TEC 15 power cable with extruded, extremely compact pin-and-socket connectors reduces the complexity of different types of cables used on products. It contains six 2.5 square millimetre wires. This design allows a nominal 16 amp current at 630 volts in constant use on the three power contacts and 10 amps on the two auxiliary contacts.
The W-TEC 15 cable is also light, making it ideal for use in energy chains. The fully-automatic extrusion-coating of the pin-and-socket connectors provides excellent protection against dust and liquids and also makes it tamper-proof. Thanks to these features, the product is ideal for all kinds of applications, particularly for manufacturers of assemblies, equipment and machinery. The pin-and-socket connectors have a quick locking device for easy assembly. The plug is securely locked by turning the fastener less than 90 degrees.
A vibration protector prevents the pin-and-socket connector coming loose. LQ has also produced sockets in two different models to suit the standardized, ready-to-use cable. These are available with integral thread and mounting flange for easy attachment to motors and assemblies.
