Module Connect – Save time and space with this smart connector module

Made to measure!

The Module Connect is a new kind of plug-in connector for connecting different electric cables, fibre optic cables and pneumatic hoses. It can be used anywhere where several or a large number of cables have to be connected in an installation space as small as possible. Thanks to the simple modular design, a unique plug-in/disconnect point can be configured as a single module consisting of several different connector housings. Each housing can be fitted with up to four different connector inserts.
The housings can then be joined together, making possible an almost unlimited number of module variations in terms of individual widths and height. Thanks to the flat housing design, the Module Connect saves a lot of space and enables a high contact density for every application. Another advantage: Only as many connector inserts as actually needed are attached. The connector modules can be adapted to the filling and geometry of the e-chain® in one or more layers. This enables ideal cabling in terms of function and design for every application. Combining the system with the universal strain relief system from igus® enables secure attachment directly in the connector housing. The soft elements used enclose the cables and hold them securely in place without damaging them. Visually reminiscent of a honeycomb, the flexible structure adapts itself to different cable diameters and thus provides universal strain relief. For the Module Connect, there are a variety of application possibilities, such as at the fixed end or moving end of an e-chain®, between two e-chains® or for routing cables into terminal boxes or switch cabinets.
