Product catalog summary
Introduction
The ESCHA catalog introduces a new format called 'ESCHA cmpct', optimized for modern viewing habits with a landscape format and a color-coding system for easy navigation. It is available in print, on PC, or tablet, and includes an interactive ePaper for downloading data sheets.
Product Overview
The catalog covers a wide range of products including connection cables, panel connectors, field-wireable connectors, and various industrial Ethernet solutions, all designed to meet specific industry standards and requirements.
Base Line
The Base Line products focus on essential variants and cost-effective design, including M12x1 connectors available in 3-, 4-, and 5-pin versions with different cable qualities (PVC or PUR). These products meet IP65, IP67, and IP68 standards and are UL-approved for the North American market.
Automation Line
The Automation Line is tailored for the automation industry, featuring halogen-, PVC-, and silicone-free materials. These products are drag-chain adapted, weld-field immune, and resistant to chemicals, oil, microbes, and hydrolysis. They meet IP65, IP67, and IP68 standards and are UL-approved.
Technical Specifications
Both Base Line and Automation Line products offer high insulation resistance (≥108Ω), low resistance (≤5mΩ), and a wide ambient temperature range (-30°C to +90°C). They are designed for over 100 mating cycles and meet various IEC standards.
Conclusion
The ESCHA catalog provides a comprehensive overview of their product offerings, emphasizing modern design, ease of use, and compliance with industry standards. The catalog team invites feedback to further enhance the user experience.
