New Product Bulletin NP 1004HE HirschmannTM GDMF Connectors GDMF - new generation of HirschmannTM brand field attachable valve connectors in a flat and ergonomic design with compact dimensions as well as ultimate resistance to vibration and shock HirschmannTM GDMF Valve Connectors - Low-height Spacesaving Design with Proven Combi-Contact The new generation of HirschmannTM GDMF field attachable rectangular valve connectors is a strong addition to our already broad product portfolio. The proven technology is now brought to market in an extremely flat and ergonomic design, which meets the ever growing demand for highly compact rectangular connectors. With a height of just 26 mm, the rectangular connectors in protection class IP65/IP67 have a perfect fit in any given application. To guarantee the highest requirements of resistance to vibration and shock, the new GDMF range also features the patented combi-contact known from the proven GDM series. The contact is designed for a wide range of cable gauges up to 1.5 mm with diameters from 4.5 to 8 mm (in a UL approved version from 4.0 to 6.7 mm). Versatile Product with Multiple Options The new valve connectors are available with or without electronic insert with three or four contacts (2+PE or 3+PE). A captive seal and non-slip surfaces on both sides provide for ease of assembly and disassembly. In addition, the standard versions can be used within a temperature range from -40C to +85C. Compatibility and Wider Range of Use The new GDMF: Low Height combined with Best Performance The HirschmannTM GDMF valve connectors are compatible with all appliance connectors according to EN 175301-803 type A. The use of this solution is recommended particularly in applications requiring a combination of benefits of the well-known GDM-series, such as ease of assembly, with extremely compact design. The series also includes a version with integrated strain relief that already meets the requirements of the new UL specification 2238. This and further approvals, such as VDE and CSA, permit the GDMF valve connectors to be used in applications worldwide. Product Features * Flat design * Non-slip surfaces on both sides * Electronic inserts with function display and/or protective circuitry * Patented combi-contact * Captive seal * UL version with strain relief Product Benefits * Space-saving and application-tailored design * Time-saving ease of handling during assembly and dissassembly * Flexible use for optimum safety and monitoring of applications * Familiar GDM connection technology in new GDMF design * Global fit supported by international approvals Because of their great versatility and extended application fit, the new flat GDMF valve connectors can be used in an even wider range of markets. This provides a perfect HirschmannTM connector solution for any application - in the usual high HirschmannTM quality and regardless of field of use or temperature range. Due to their multiple configuration possibilities and optional UL version with strain relief, the valve connector A, B and C series meet all requirements for hydraulic, pneumatic and electromagnetic actuator and sensor applications. 2 www.hirschmann.com Electronic Inserts DA 2+PE Without electronic insert DF Yellow LED, 24 V, plus suppression diode DA 3+PE Without electronic insert DG Yellow LED, 24 V, plus recovery diode DB Yellow LED, 24 V DC Yellow LED, 120 V DL Yellow LED, 250 V, plus varistor DR Yellow LED, 120 V, plus varistor DE Yellow LED, 250 V Technical Specifications Design Type Standard EN 175301-803A / ISO 4400 Number of pins 2+PE, 3+PE Wire gauge max 1,5 mm Rated Voltages Without circuitry AC/DC 250 V With circuitry AC/DC 24, 120 und 250 V Rated Current Without circuitry AC / DC 16 A With circuitry AC / DC 8 A Except for DG AC / DC 1 A Protection class IP65/IP67 Temperature range - 40C to + 85C Seal Preassembled Locking Mechanism Center screw Steel, Phillips recessed head Thread M3 Flammability Ratings Housing 94 HB (UL version 94 V0) Contact support 94 V0 Approvals VDE, UL, CSA www.hirschmann.com 3 Greater Choice of Designs The New Valve Connector Feature Combinations by Designation 1.
