Well thought-out connections increase your efficiency. Our products create added value during planning, installation and operation. Weidmüller offers you a wide range of connection solutions for use in industrial environments. Our product range includes Klippon® Connect terminal blocks and the Klippon® Protect enclosure system.
In this section you will also find the OMNIMATE® device connectivity for signal, power and data. Whether circular or heavy duty connectors, cables, distribution boxes or PLC interfaces and migration solutions - Weidmüller offers suitable connection solutions for your projects.
Panels have to master various tasks depending on the application. However varied the challenges may be, our answer is incredibly simple: Klippon® Connect combines all the requirements placed on the relevant industries now and in the future of Industry 4.0 production plants. The range of tailor-made application products, universal terminal blocks and process-supporting Klippon® Services offer the right solution whatever the panel concept.
OMNIMATE Signal and OMNIMATE Power are PCB terminal blocks, plug-in connector and panel feedthrough terminal blocks for industrial applications with a focus on signal processing and power electronics. Power for high currents up to 232 A and voltages up to 1000 V (IEC) or 230 A at 600 V (UL). The components are optimised for application-oriented design, efficient production and reliable application.
OMNIMATE Data are RJ45 and USB circuit board sockets for safe data transmission in the Industrial Ethernet environment.
RJ45 components from Weidmüller ensure reliable transmission with high data rates up to 1 Gbit/s. With different variants for THT, THR or SMT solder processes, the female sockets are suitable for all common techniques of PCB assembly. The different design types of the RJ45 circuit board sockets allow adaptation to the individual enclosure design.
For more than 50 years, Klippon® has been synonymous with innovation, competence and quality of products and services in the automation technology. Weidmüller meets these requirements with its range of steel sheet enclosures in the new Klippon® TB series, available in Multi-Hinge (MH), Quarter-Lock (QL) and Fixing-Screw (FS) versions, the Klippon® EBi series, the Klippon® STB series and the aluminium enclosures of the Klippon® K series. The portfolio is rounded off with the polyester enclosures of the Klippon® POK series and the polycarbonate enclosures. Irrespective of which application users are planning, Weidmüller offers numerous precisely fitting enclosure solutions and individual services: turnkey enclosures with customer-specific configurations such as terminal rails, drilled holes, cable glands, cutouts, special coatings and much more besides.
Weidmüller offers you a variety of add-on components for a multitude of applications in addition to its wide range of enclosures. This includes standard brass, plastic, and stainless steel cable glands for industrial and hazardous area applications. In addition to cable glands, there are sealing plugs, pressure compensation elements, and adapters. Relevant accessories, such as lock nuts, sealing and earthing rings are also available.
Furthermore, we support you with our cable entry system, Cabtite. Cabtite offers maximum flexibility and time-savings in the cable management of control cabinets, enclosures, and machines - high packing density in a very small space for pre-assembled and non-preassembled cables.
The interface components are available as a clear alternative to the point-to-point wiring system in order to reduce costs and to simplify the setup of the electrical cabinets. The main function of this interface is as an adapter between the control devices and field elements. The interfaces consist of:
Standard connectors for connection to the control devices.
PCB terminals with tension clamp or screw connections for the field connection.
Additional components like LEDs, fuses, relays or isolators which can integrate new functions.
Profiles and base frames for attaching to standard TS32 and TS35 mounting rails. The pre-assembled cables supplied by Weidmüller are also used to connect the tester with the interface. These are the advantages of the system:
FrontCom® Vario integrates several functions in just one single or double frame. The system is easy to install and you can select from a wide range of data, signal and power modules. FrontCom® Vario is not only extremely compact, but also offers you the possibility of effectively increasing the availability and productivity of your systems using protected service interfaces on the enclosure walls of your panels, because the system enables many service jobs to be carried out during ongoing operation and avoids waiting times for specially authorised specialist personnel. Furthermore, the FrontCom® Vario system has an attractive housing design that, by the way, offers highest impact resistance and fully meets the requirements of IP 65 protection class.
FrontCom® Micro is ideally used when only a service interface with data access via RJ45 or USB is required. Mounted in a standard 22 mm round hole, it requires minimal space and also offers IP65 protection. Clear and also simple marking can be made by using our SwitchMark markers.
