Chapter 6 – Connectors 

 

From left to right, the connectors above are: 

(1)

 

Two power connectors, both 5-pin Han Push-Pull Power. 

(2)

 

Two RJ45 Profinet / EtherNet/IP connectors, both Han Push-Pull RJ45 PN (compatible with Ophir P/N 
7E01298 / 7E01299 or Harting part 09 35 226 0401. Standard IP20 cables can also be used, but without a 
locking mechanism.) 

(3)

 

One D9 connector for RS232 

Power Connectors 

The power sockets are Harting Han PP Power, part 09 35 004 3003 or Phoenix part 1657915 (pin connector) and part 
09 35 002 0303 (metal hood).  It is compatible with the Helios Power Cable, Ophir P/N 7Z10458A or (for example) 
Harting part 09 35 433 0401 (see 

www.Harting.com

 ), or Phoenix Contact part 1421783 (see 

www.phoenixcontact.com

 ).
