Device connectors - PLUSCON device

The VARIOCON connector system is suitable for use in equipment, terminal boxes and control cabinets. As a result of its modular design and the variety of contact inserts from D-SUB to FO and on to power connections, the range offers nearly unlimited application possibilities.

Modular contact inserts


Modular contact inserts allow power and signal transmission to be combined in one connector. The contact system is based on the proven COMBICON connection method with tension sleeve principle and coding possibility. The mounting side can be supplied with screw connection or alternatively with direct PCB connection.

The connection options range from 4-pos./70 A/690 V to 40-pos./10 A/160 V. Additional fiber optics modules are available for data transmission.

The crimp contact carriers are available as male or female contact carriers and fulfill the requirements for multi-position connections. Turned and rolled crimp contacts from the proven HEAVYCON D-series (EN 175301-801) are available for the 15, 30, 50 and 65-position crimp contact carriers plus two capacitive PE connections each.

All advantages of the crimp system, such as machine preassembly or partial assembly, can be used with crimp contact carriers.




Sleeve housings and supporting base elements


The sleeve housings are available in three housing versions:
  • Plastic
  • Metal, powder-coated and
  • Metal, EMC-coated.

VARIOCON sleeve housings form a seal directly on the mounting panel using two locking screws. This locking method saves space, can be accessed from above, resists vibration and fulfills the requirements of IP65/66/67 degree of protection.

For attaching without tools, versions with an easy-to-handle knurled screw are available.
