The ConCept connector system offers a universal and flexible solution for a wide range of applications. As a modular, low-cost alternative to well-established HE inserts, it provides users with flexibility for standard and customized connector needs. The system features interchangeable modules with screw, crimp, or tension clamp connections, allowing for a free selection of connecting technology. With a variety of modules offering different pole numbers and electrical specifications, and combinable with mounting frames, hoods, and housings, ConCept enables highly variable connector configurations for reliable connections in machines, switchgear cabinets, motors, and installations. It supports both signal and power transmission through the same connector.
