Souriau REACH-compliant for aeronautics
The goal of European REACH regulation is to improve health and environmental protection by banning the use of SVHC (Substance of Very High Concern) chemicals and at the same time promoting the competitiveness of the European Union's chemical industries. Souriau, like most manufacturers, uses hexavalent chromium, one of the substances listed as hazardous, in the surface treatment processes for many of its connectors. Although the European Chemicals Agency has granted derogations of up to 12 years depending on the application, Souriau wished to anticipate this deadline. Souriau's R&D has been working for several years on the implementation and validation of this change to its composite connectors, which affected both the products and the production lines. The first REACH connectors in the D38999 composite range were launched during 2019 and by next December, the entire range will be manufactured without the use of hexavalent chromium.
Series PCMDS80 as Base Plate or Head Sink Version

CONEC M8x1 connectors D-coding with “Fast Ethernet”
Today, it is impossible to imagine many areas of automation technology without Industrial Ethernet data transmission. Up to now, M12x1 D-coded connectors have mainly been used for control and regulation units. Many manufacturers are now connecting their sensors, cameras and other components with each other via Industrial Ethernet. Due to the progressive miniaturisation of these devices, it was time to develop a compact connector suitable for this purpose.
For this reason, CONEC has extended its Industrial Ethernet product range to include the M8x1 D-Coding according to IEC Standard 61076-2-114. The pole pattern is based on that of the M12x1 D-Coding and prevents mating with all other M8x1 codings on the market.
With M8x1 D coding, Industrial Ethernet transmission is implemented using a 4-pole M8x1 connector in conjunction with a 360° shielding and a standard Ethernet cable.
Together with the contacts changed to 0.8 mm diameter, the connector enables a transmission rate of up to 100 Mbit/s (Fast Ethernet).
