Functionally reliable and easy to maintain
The new Hirschmann™ field-attachable GDM series valve connectors can be used to supply power to components such as solenoid valves, pressure sensors and temperature sensors, or to connect them to a data network. Circuit protection ensures that downstream circuitry cannot be damaged by excess voltage or electromagnetic fields. Versions with built-in LED status indicators (with or without circuit protection) are also available, making maintenance considerably easier. Depending on the version of the valve connector, additional features include the industrial protection class IP68, an operating temperature range of -40° to +90° C and high shock and vibration resistance. They play an important role in implementing reliable solutions that enhance the productivity of machines and systems, even under harsh environmental conditions.
