A range of hoods from Harting's Han-Compact family of industrial connectors offer a choice of straight or angled cable entry. The compact metal hoods are suitable for all contact inserts in the Han-Compact range and include variants with surfaces for standard and EMC applications. The outer threads are moulded onto the hood. The range also includes half-cable glands and an Iris spring for shield termination. The two-piece design of the hood allows users to slip the hood element including the cable gland onto the cable during assembly. The operation is completed by closing the hood element and fastening it with the screws. A separate earth conductor terminal enables the use of connectors with high rated voltages and currents. Connectors include the Han Q 4/2, the Han Q 8/0, the Han Q 17/0 and the Han Q Data RJ 45.
