Over-moulding extends Buccaneer applications

A Bulgin Components product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Apr 27, 2009

Bulgin has announced the introduction of fully assembled cables using over-moulded cable connectors to its 400 series Buccaneer water-proof connectors.

The over-mould technology enables a secure and tamper-proof cable termination to be created that is dust- and water-proof to IP68.

The number of uses for Bulgin’s 400 Series Buccaneer waterproof connectors has grown with the introduction of fully assembled cables using over-moulded cable connectors.

The number of uses for Bulgin’s 400 Series Buccaneer waterproof connectors has grown with the introduction of fully assembled cables using over-moulded cable connectors.

The two cable connectors - PX0400 (flex), and PX0401 (flex in-line) - allow secure connections to be made with in-line cable assemblies or cable to panel assemblies and are compatible with the 400 series panel connectors PX0412 and PX0413.

Over-moulding also provides a strong, durable strain-relief around the cable, functioning through a temperature range of -20C to +85C, while the polyurethane over-mould material has been tested and validated for use on PVC and polyurethane cable jackets.

These cable assemblies provide a secure interconnection system for OEMs who may require a 'customer-proof' solution, so are ideal for 'fit-and-forget' applications, such as instrumentation, marine, medical, surveillance and CCTV.

The range of potential options, including cable construction, length, number of poles, flex or flex in-line connectors, may be combined with any other type of connector to provide an assembly to meet system requirements.
