Connectors for the use in switch cabinets. Designed for use in protected switch rooms and switch cabinets, the Han-Snap® series, permits the installation of connectors in enclosed areas while conforming to the required IP protection class. The Han-Snap® range consists of plastic elements to facilitate the rail or panel mounting of a wide range of HARTING multi-pole connector inserts. Han-Snap® parts offer latching and strain relief options coupled with various mounting configurations; also many useful accessories are available. Note:. A connector mounted with Han-Snap® elements does not offer finger safe protection to the relevant standards. In this case protection against electric shock must be provided by the installation methods of the user. The fixing of the PE terminal must be conducted on equal side of the connector insert to avoid ground interruptions. The Han-Snap® system is ideal for connectors within closed electrical operating environments. These can be rooms, cabinets or termination boxes. The Han-Snap® components are an innovative design which offers the following advantages and characteristics: - Reduction of material and assembly costs; - Fast and easy installation; - Preassembly of Han connectors; - Secure and rigid mounting of Han connectors; - Frequent use of latching systems is possible (up to several thousand cycles). The Han-Snap® elements are compatible with the standard inserts and terminal block connectors of the following series: - Han D®, 40 and 64 pins - Han DD® - Han E® - Han® EE - Han® EEE - Han® ES - Han Hv E® - Han® Hv ES - Han® HsB - Han® HsC - Han-Com® - Han-Modular® With the Han-Snap® adapter the following standard inserts are compatible (named series Han A as follows): - Han D®, 15 and 25 pins - Han A®, 10 and 16 pins The Han-Snap® elements are a mechanical system for the mounting assembly and security of Han connectors. Normally the elements are assembled to the connector insert using the standard insert fixing screws. If coding is required the standard fixing screws may be replaced by either code pins or guide pins and bushes. On free connectors the wires or cables can be secured to the strain relief element with standard cable ties of 5 mm width maximum.
