Hybrid connector cuts occupied mounting space
Summary
It is an IPX6/IPX7 waterproof connector (when mated) with lock lever design and enhances cable wiring efficiency. HIROSE has developed the BH12 series to address these applications, this smaller, high current, power-signal hybrid circular waterproof connector integrates their long experience in the E-Mobility and industrial robotics market. The power contacts on the receptacle side are soldered at a right angle, thus reducing the height requirement inside the panel. The BH12 series have a waterproof design (in the mated state) and can handle direct water jets or total immersion under specified conditions, this allows the connectors to be used in harsh environmental settings. Guide keys are also available to ensure secure alignment and mating even in areas with poor visibility.
