00 Series Metal

High quality, precision engineered connectors, employing a simple push-pull latching mechanism, high durability strain relief collets and in-built keying to prevent mis-mating. All metal body construction ensures EMC shielding, while push-pull design provides space saving and eliminates risk of unintentional disconnection of cable through shock, vibration or cable pull. Available in four sizes of fully populated cable mount plugs and panel/PCB mount sockets, with optional collets and strain reliefs, to cover a wide range of cable sizes. A Plastic Redel range is also available. They are ideal for instrumentation, medical and nuclear applications, plus many other special industry requirements.

Lemo 00B Series Cable Mount Plugs - Metal

From Lemo, a range of circular metal plugs from the 00B series. Designed for cable mounting, the connectors feature a unique push-pull self-latching mechanism for safe and secure mating. Compact in design, the industrial circular connectors are G coded for higher contact density and prevent contact miss alignment. With 360° shielding for enhanced EMI performance, the 00B series of cable connectors are ideal for high accuracy and interference-free data and signals. Cable mount plugs mate with a panel or PCB sockets.

Lemo Push-Pull Self-Latching Connection System

The self-latching system is a simple and effective retention solution, providing complete protection against vibration, shock or any pull on the cable.

Engaging the system

To initiate the self-latching system the plug is simply pushed axially into its mating half. Once firmly latched in place via the internal latches the connection is virtually impossible to break. No amount of pulling on the cable or any other part of the connector body will release the two parts.

Disengaging the system

If the connection needs to be broken, a simple axial pull on the connector’s outer body release sleeve unlatches the internal mechanism. The plug can then be withdrawn from the socket separating the two halves.

Applications

Due to the 00B series compact size, the shielded connectors are ideal for applications in the industrial electronics sector. Some of the most common areas are

• Test and measurement equipment
• Sensors and actuators
• Instrumentation
• Medical devices
• Audio / video

Environment

With an IP50 rating, the 0B series by Lemo are only suitable for indoor applications which would not be subjected to the elements. They are moderately dustproof, but not waterproof and should therefore not be exposed to water or used in harsh environments
