Designed for use in the harshest environments and outdoor environments, such as extreme weather conditions, extreme temperatures, dust, humidity, liquids or vibrations. 

• The HEC series is part of our extensive range of power connectors, making it suitable for virtually any low and high voltage application.
• This enables versatility, which is also reflected in the possible areas of application.
• These include agricultural and construction machin- ery, chemical plants/process engineering, mining and surface mining, mechanical engineering and non-contact areas in the food industry.
• Connectors for harsh environments of the HEC
• Series 696 are available as cable connectors and rectangular panel mount versions with or without integrated protective hose fitting, which can pro-tect cables up to IP67 and in mated condition up to
  IP69K.
• The connectors are UV-resistant and have VDE and UL approval. The high mechanical load capac- ity of the products is confirmed by more than 500 mating cycles for the 12-pole version and more than 1000 mating cycles for the 5- and 8-pole versions.
