Full-metal D-Sub hood with two parallel cable outputs

The new 10115DC series in zinc die-cast design offers users increased flexibility for cabling at bus interfaces. At the same time, it meets the high requirements for interference-free data transmission in demanding special applications as well as in railway and traffic technology.

Thanks to the two parallel cable outputs, the new hood series can also be used with D-Sub or bus interfaces that are close together and, thanks to its small installation width of 14.8mm, it can be used for space-saving, narrow three module units (one module corresponds to 5.08 mm).

Networks in railway technology are exposed to extreme influences, such as interference radiation, vibrations or mechanical loads. Consequently, higher requirements apply here than in the usual industrial sector. At the same time, both data and signal transmission, i.e. the entire communication, depend on secure connections.

In addition to cable assembly, Provertha now solves these high requirements with the new full-metal hood series, which greatly simplifies assembly at difficult-to-access installation points due to a minimised number of individual parts and a practical and compact design. For example, all cover and cable clamping screws as well as the knurled screws are already pre-assembled and captive.

The 15-pin full-metal hood with two axial cable outlets features a special housing design with excellent shielding and a vibration-proof screw-type locking system with Allen screws (UNC 4-40, M3) and pre-mounted spring lock washer. Four external cable clamps for cable diameters from four to 14mm can also be used for the cable connection. Alternatively, the cables with a vibration-proof crimp flange/crimp sleeve system (hexagonal crimp) can be used to ensure reliable and durable cable connections with torsion and vibration-proof shield contact and strain relief.

Furthermore, the new hoods allow the integration of a PCB due to their large installation space and an external cable connection. Repeated opening of the full-metal hoods poses no problem whatsoever and does not impair the high-quality product characteristics, such as the HF density.

For application-oriented and functionally reliable solutions, Provertha offers a comprehensive product range with over 20 hood systems made of plastic, metallised plastic and solid metal. Quick and easy mounting thanks to a practical design with a minimised number of individual parts is a key feature of all Provertha D-Sub hoods (‘Quick Mount’). For applications with high EMC requirements, Provertha has developed full-metal hoods with a special housing for 360° shielding.

‘Quick Lock’ is the vibration-proof push-pull system that is qualified acc. to EN 61373 and can be locked with an audible click even in hard-to-reach locations: Various cable outlet options (straight, angled, multiple) and the extensive range of accessories, application-optimised solutions can almost always be realised without restrictions.
