Enhancing safety and reliability in transportation applications, the VEAM CIR Series high-temperature circular connectors meet European CEN/TS 45545 standards governing railway fire safety. The connectors withstand a high temperature exposure period of at least 15 minutes at the ISO 834-1 heating curve where maximum temperature is 800°C. Featuring stainless steel shells and ceramic insulation, they are available with 35 size-12 poles at 40A. A silicon rubber grommet ensures sealing, while contacts with a metallic retention clip provide a reliable contact that will not release under shock and vibration conditions. The company is also developing the CIR Series connectors with 40 size-16 poles rated at 36A and four size-16 poles. ITT INDUSTRIES, CANNON, Santa Ana, CA. (714) 557-4700.
