Geo-Beam™ EX Expanded Beam Connectors
ConnectorsCinch Connectivity Solutions explosion-proof series Geo-Beam™ EX has been designed in accordance with information defined within ATEX directive IECEx 60079 for use in Zone 1 and Zone 2 Hazardous Areas. The Geo-Beam™ EX product range consists of an Inline Plug and Box Mount Bulkhead and is manufactured using Stainless Steel 316, making it able to withstand the most extreme environments. The product uses a Tri-Start Trapezoidal coupling method giving a reduced turn and an additional locking mechanism giving positive mating, and an audible click to ensure full engagement.
The Geo-Beam™ EX electrical range will offer the greatest flexibility of connector configurations and the broadest options for the customer. The range is primarily designed using an 8-way copper connector, focusing around a standard #16 MIL-C-39029 contact, and offers a variable range of fiber optic configurations, using MIL-PRF-29504, physical contact, and optical termini. The Geo-Beam™ EX Expanded Beam Connector is designed using a standard Fibreco insert. The insert allows up to 8 expanded beam channels, or a hybrid option, enabling a combination of power, electrical, and optical connectivity in an all-in-one solution.
