PNEUMATICS 36 HYDRAULICS & PNEUMATICS November/December 2020 www.hpmag.co.uk Encapsulated coil, industrial connector and sensor specialist ATAM has introduced a range of overmoulded valve connectors with IP69K protection rating, suitable for off-road vehicles. The range comprises five new connectors in different designs and sizes, with technical features including integrated gaskets and captive screws giving superb endurance even in the most demanding of applications. The connectors are supplied pre-assembled with screw and gasket integration, thereby eliminating the risk of losing vital components during disassembly for maintenance. The entire range has a protection rating ranging from IP65 to IP69K, making it ideal for ‘dirty’ applications where oils, chemicals, mud and water may be present. Polyurethane encapsulation gives durable performance and protection from contamination, even when used at a very low temperature. Due to its acquisition of CNE, ATAM is now able to offer a complete range of valve connectors, available in self- assembly or with moulded cables for different application fields. The company’s state of the art production lines ensure optimum productivity, combined with excellent quality control. Synergy in the development and production of encapsulated coils and industrial connectors, combined with top class laboratory testing facilities, allow Camozzi Automation has launched its new Series MX Safemax 3/2-way quick exhaust safety valves. Designed to provide a plug-and-play solution for OEMs that need to be compliant with Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC, the range also complies with ISO 13849-1, covering the safe design of control systems performing safety functions. Safety valves ensure that in the event of an emergency, safety-critical system components can be exhausted and de- energised as quickly as possible. This exhausting operation can be accurately monitored through the valves’ integrated anti-tamper sensor, which detects and monitors the position of the spool.Series MX Safemax is available in two versions which can achieve different performance levels. The single channel version is classified in category 2 to achieve Performance Level D. The double channel valve is classified in category 4 to achieve Performance Level E.These high exhaust flow valves are designed for integration into existing Camozzi Series MX2 FRL groups. With an operating temperature of -5 to +60degC, the valves feature FKM seals, offering excellent resistance against contaminants. www.camozzi.co.uk ATAM introduces overmoulded valve connector range ATAM to simulate the combined use of the two products in a variety of conditions and scenarios, ensuring premium performance and reliability are achieved. www.atam.uk.com Connector production in ATAM plant. ¯ Safety paramount in Camozzi’s Series MX Safemax 3/2-way quick exhaust valves
