The connector for the food and beverages industry
The Han® F+B connector is our answer to the demanding and stringent hygiene standards in the food and beverages industry. Its easy-to-clean housing design was optimized especially for the requirements and conditions in splash zones.
The wide variety of possible inserts enables the transmission of Data, Signals or Power. Consequently, the Han® F+B connector offers greater flexibility in the planning and design of modern systems than previous hard-wired systems.
Easy-to-clean design especially for the splash zone
The Han® F+B connector has been specifically designed for the splash zone
(Zone 2). The special housing design features large radii and smooth surfaces in keeping with the principles of the EHEDG guidelines. As a result, so-called dirt pockets and the potential bacterial load on the connector have no chance.
Reliable connections - also when cleaned daily
The Han® F+B connector is designed with IP69K protection for the permanent, durable protection of the electric connections, also in scenarios involving daily high-pressure or steam cleaning. The plastic material opted for is a PP plastic that is resistant to ECOLAB-certified cleaning agents and has also obtained FDA 21 approval.
Variably configurable for the widest range of applications
As the first connector in the food environment, the Han® F+B connector can be configured with 25 different contact inserts. Inserts up to 40 A and configurations with up to 21 signal contacts create flexible interfaces for data, signals and power. Hybrid contact inserts furthermore offer the perfect combination for drive solutions and Ethernet network connection.
