CONEC SnapLock

13. February 2015

The new CONEC SnapLock locking system consists of D-SUB connectors and D-SUB hoods allowing quick and safe locking without any additional screwing. A spring-loaded clip integrated in the hood locks in place with the locking bolt mounted to the mating connector and ensures a quick and safe connection. The locking bolt for the connector is available in two variants:

 

  1. Firmly integrated in the connector, for example with a standard thread insert. The advantage is that the locking bolts cannot get lost and do not have to be installed in a second work step.

  2. As kit for subsequent mounting on connectors for rear panel mounting or as upgrade kit for existing systems, to be used with the CONEC SnapLock hood.

 

Locking of the locking mechanism is indicated by an audible and tangible click. Due to the high retaining force, safe locking of the connector is provided for many different applications.

The CONEC SnapLock system is especially designed for applications with high requirements to vibration and shock resistance such as applications in the railway and transport industries. The respective tests are currently carried out.
