Description
This Burkert 2518 connector has a pole protection, free wheeling diode, and LED and is suitable for a DIN EN 175301-803 Form A (previously DIN 43650) connection, but simply referred to as a DIN-A connection. DIN-A connectors are also called "sugar cube connectors" or "MPM". The Form A refers to the distance between the pins, which is 18mm. It is rated for 12..24V AC/DC, 1A, and suitable for an ambient temperature range of -30..90⁰C. It is modular, compact, IP65 certified, connects the wires at a 90⁰ angle, allows for fast assembly and reduced integration time. This version comes with a steel mounting screw and as standard has an earth ground connection point. This cable plug has pole protection, freewheeling diode, and an LED in the circuit. The pole protection and freewheeling diode are used together to protect a switching DC power supply from transient voltage spikes, like a short-term back electromotive force (EMF) that is common in valve operation. The LED allows for reduced installation time and faster electrical troubleshooting due to the visual feedback. Correct polarity is crucial for proper operation and a sufficient amount of current must pass through to light the LED.
Pros:
- Adheres to DIN EN 175301-803 Form A, which is commonly used globally and can be used with numerous brands.
- This cable plug has pole protection, freewheeling diode, and an LED in the circuit to protect a switching DC power supply from transient voltage spikes and utilizes the LED for visual feedback.
- Burkert proven reliability.
- Allows for fast assembly and reduced integration time.
- IP65 certified.
Cons:
- Only suitable for 12..24V AC/DC.
2518 series
The Burkert 2518 series is a range of cable plugs used to connect a power source to an electrical component, like a valve. Every plug is designed according to DIN EN 175301-803 (previously DIN 43650) Form A (shortly DIN-A). It comes in a wide variety of voltages, amperage and designs, each of which meet different protection, indication, or performance requirements. Possible circuitry options are: 2-pin without circuit, 3-pin without circuit, LED, varistor, rectifier, pole protection, freewheeling diode, HL-circuit, LR-circuit, IN-circuit, or a combination of different circuits. They connect at a 90⁰ angle and are IP65 certified, allowing for fast assembly and reduced integration time.
