Brad M23 connectors for signal applications meet stringent requirements for reliability and performance in the harshest of industrial environments. Modular design means the same insert is used For all housings. Integrated locking clip allows for quick assembly and disassembly. Plug-and-play design allows complete assembly and disassembly without special tools. Gold-plated contact area features durable, corrosion-resistant plating that maintains low electrical resistance through the mate/unmate cycles. Integrated strain-relief fitting prevents cable rotation. Applications: servo drives, encoders, resolvers, active and passive I/O boxes, safety applications, safety switches, safety door handles, harsh commercial, solar panel wiring systems, home run connectivity for MPIS.
Brad Power modular components make installation faster, easier and more reliable. Where multiple machines are involved, assembling the systems is consistent and repeatable. Compared to traditional hard wiring, Brad Power solutions provide reduced labor costs, simplified connections, increased plant flexibility and reduced commission time. They also deliver rapid return on capital equipment investments. Power distribution and motor control in: Complex automated assembly equipment. Material handling and conveying equipment. Food/beverage processing and packaging. Pharmaceutical process equipment. Petrochemical plants. Rugged, factory-applied connectors over-molded. Strong, crush-resistant TC-ER cable. Convenient, field-attachable connectors.
Brad products give the user and designer of a PROFIBUS system a complete communication and connectivity solution-from scanner card to media infrastructure to IP67 I/O connections and diagnostics. You can select which control engine you want, whether it is PC or PLC-based; we get you onto the network. You can choose which control architecture- centralized or distributed-that makes the most sense to you. Whether you are connecting motor controllers, valve banks or sensors, we ensure that connectivity to those points are there.
PICS Simulation software simulates real-world systems and machines controlled by DCS, PLC and PC control systems. The entire system (communications, sequencing/interlocking, HMI/SCADA and alarms) can be tested, all emergency faults can be verified and operators trained, with minimal down-time. PICS Simulation software enables you to identify and correct control system errors in the office, implement new processes quickly and accurately and avoid the high cost of production downtime before "flipping the switch." PICS Simulation software provides your project team with a realistic and versatile testing and training environment. PICS Simulation software allows you to create a dynamic model on a PC that duplicates the behavior of the I/O devices, providing the control system with simulated device feedback. PICS PRO can be used in Windows XP, Vista and 7 operating systems.
Rugged Micro-Change connectors provide a high-pin density, M12 solution that is ideal for use in industrial and harsh commercial environments. Brad Micro-Change products are Molex's offering of rugged, high-circuit density, industry-standard M12 circular connectors for industrial automation applications. Micro-Change connectors are designed to withstand harsh industrial environments and their superior quality assures a very reliable connection for control elements in automated equipment. These IEC 61076-2-101 compliant connectors allow fast and simple connections to 12.00 and 18.00mm sensors, encoders, switches and other input and output devices in industrial machinery. Brad's complete line of M12 connectivity provides a quick-connect wiring system that eliminates field-install cabinets and minimizes field wiring termination errors. Available in 4 poles; in dual-key configurations; without LEDs; in straight; and with different coupling nut materials to provide a wide variety of options to meet application requirements. Intermates with industry standard M12 devices that comply with IEC 61076-2-101. Rugged, IP68 rated watertight connector is well suited for harsh, wet environments. Patented, anti-vibration feature prevents back-out in applications that experience high vibration and mechanical shock. Gold-over-nickel-plated contacts provide a durable, corrosion-resistant plating that maintains low electrical resistance throughout the life of the connector. Applications: proximity switches, photo eyes, safety switches and other I/O connectivity. Connector interface for IP69-rated devices. Connectivity for devices in high-vibration environments. Connections requiring blind-mating.
The Brad Mini-Change connector family from Molex is the standard by which all industrial sealed connectors are measured. With the introduction of the Mini-Change in 1968, Brad pioneered miniature connectors by offering the first quick-connect alternative to hardwiring. Today, Brad connectors from Molex continue to be recognized as the industry's leading connectors for their quality, durability and the widest selection in the market. Available in 4-pole configurations. Brad Mini-Change connectors from Molex continue to evolve, providing the best, most cost-effective solution for tough connector applications. Patented, Quad Beam socket contact with stainless steel sleeve maintains consistent pressure on the male pin to ensure optimum conductivity. Gold-over-nickel-plated contacts are corrosion-resistant and help maintain low electrical resistance through high mate/ unmate cycles. Molded key indicator allows for quick and easy alignment and mating of the connector. Integral strain relief provides 100 pounds minimum cable strain relief and radiates stress in side-loaded conditions. Sealed to an IP67 rating to prevent the entry of water during temporary submersion. Applications: Limit switches. Proximity switches. Photoelectric sensors. pumps, Solar panel wiring systems. Industrial heaters. Commercial and industrial lighting. Float switches on commercial sump pumps. Industrial refrigeration systems. Load cells. Power connector to streetlight accessories. Solenoid-operated valves. Test equipment. Portable/mobile light towers.
