Rectangular connectors

Han® rectangular connectors are the market standard for heavy-duty industrial connectors to enable the modularisation of machines and facilities. Designed for harsh environments Han® rectangular connectors ensure the reliable and pluggable transmission of power, signal and data, meeting the highest requirements for industrial applications.

In addition to its rectangular heavy-duty standard design, the Han® range offers modular, compact and lightweight connectors that deliver a wide range of solutions for the machinery, transportation, energy, automotive and device connectivity sectors.

A complete rectangular connector consists of the following individual components:

Cable entry protection

• Universal cable glands

• Special cable clamp with strain relief, bell mouthed cable fitting and anti-twist devices

• Cable gland with normal or multiple seal

• Extensive range of accessories

Hoods

• Low or high construction, top or side cable entry, 1 or 2 locking levers

Male insert with

• Screw terminal or crimp terminal (order contacts separately) or cage-clamp terminal

Female insert with

• Screw terminal or crimp terminal (order contacts separately) or cage-clamp terminal

Housings

• Housing (bulkhead mounting): with or without thermoplastic or metal covers, 1 or 2 locking levers

• Housing (surface mounting): low or high construction with or without thermoplastic or metal covers, 1 or 2 locking levers, 1 or 2 cable entries

• Hood (cable to cable): low or high construction for cable to cable connections

Accessories

• Protective covers available

• Code and guide pins for coding

• Special insert fixing screws for use without hoods and housings

• Label according to CSA-approval

Rectangular connectors are the perfect base to get used of the advantages of modular connectors, thus offering to integrate power, signal, data and even compressed air into a single unique interface. As the inventor of the modular industrial connector, HARTING is offering the market standard for modular connectors - the Han-Modular® series.

Users can optimally design connectors to supply machinery and equipment. This is made possible by combining individual modules for different transmission media in standard-sized industrial connector housings. Han-Modular® offers easy-to-handle, highly flexible solutions with a small footprint and versatile functionality.

Introduced in 2022, Han-Modular® Domino Modules open up new possibilities for optimisation, including space and weight savings of up to 50%, thus reducing the CO2 footprint.
