The new version offers standard A-sized housings for configuring robust and flexible interfaces in demanding environmental conditions.

The benefits of Han-Eco A housings now extend to outdoor use, especially the option of fitting pre-assembled inserts to the back of the mounting housing, saving considerable installation time.

Han-Eco A Outdoor seals are made of a different material from industrial housings. High-quality profile and flange gaskets made of fluorinated rubber (FPM) are oriented towards the Han M housing. This material offers resistance to environmental conditions, making Han-Eco A Outdoor an ideal connector for outdoor use.

The new version retains all the benefits of the Han-Eco series, including ease of installation, corrosion resistance, and flexible assembly options. In particular, the combination of an integral frame and an optional integral cable gland minimises the need for fitting additional components during assembly.
