Weidmuller RockStar® Moduplug "Great performance in the smallest of spaces"

Weidmuller's RockStar® ModuPlug sets new standards for modular connector systems. To put it simply, they solve the omnipresent space problem by offering increased functionality over reduced installation space requirements. These features in turn reduce the overall weight and by extension, cost! 

If you are unfamiliar with the term modular connector system - it is a system consisting of individual modular connectors - each modular connector either an input or output - that connects electrical devices within a network. Sometimes these connector systems have limited space requirements while needing to maintain a large number of connections - picture a maintenance shed loaded with water pumps, relays, temperature controls, gate controls, and other equipment miles from the main pumping station. In this case, the RockStar® ModuPlug is well-suited to work within tight spaces due to its high density of contacts within a smaller form factor compared to the industry standard.

Bottom line: When you have those modules populated then make that final connection in a shed miles from nowhere and all of the machinery whirs ON for a job a well done …you are truly a RockStar®, and the plug is pretty cool too!

Here are some of the ways the RockStar® lives up to its name:

1. The Pitch size is halved thus doubling the number of module spaces and therefore increasing functionality.

2. Power to weight ratio – the 100 A module is available in a “Single Plus 1.5” width which is narrower than the market standard. This allows for more modules over the same space versus the standard size. In addition, there are even smaller frames and enclosure sizes to save additional space and weight.

3. More signals over less space/weight – Higher contact density. The double HD 36 has 36 signal contacts (rated at 250 V), 50% more than the market standard.

And all this with more convenient installation!

Switches, Pilot Lamps, and accessories (a poem)

Scratch your pole and throw itches,
With Autonics modular switches;
where each switch (or pilot) lamp whether yellow, red, or green,
can be configured for the job of your dreams.

If theses switches do not fit the bill at hand,
we have numerous options to meet your demands!

*I’ll show myself out.
