Electrical Connectors
What is a Connector?
A connector is an electromechanical device used to join two electrical parts together, generally this would be connecting a cable to a system or cable to another cable within an electrical circuit. There are many different types of connectors that can accomplish this. They can be used to connect power, data and fibre and can come in different shapes, sizes and materials. They can also be waterproof, dustproof and heat proof to various industry ratings. Our sales team is ready to help you with any queries.

Coin cell supercapacitors are compact electrochemical energy storage devices with a high capacity that can quickly store and release electrical energy. Compared to conventional batteries, they offer several advantages, including high power density, a long cycle life, and fast charge and discharge rates.
Power density describes how quickly an energy storage device can release or absorb energy. This is important for applications requiring short-term high energy outputs, such as starting an engine. Supercapacitors have a high power density, which enables them to provide energy quickly. Energy density indicates how much energy a storage device can hold over a longer period. A high energy density is essential for applications requiring a continuous energy supply.
The new coin cell supercapacitors from Schurter are available for horizontal mounting (SCCA) or vertical mounting (SCCC). They can be used in systems with a voltage of up to 5.5 V and have a capacitance value ranging from 100 to 1,500 mF.
Schurter's new coin cell supercapacitors are used in a variety of applications, including backup power supplies, electronic devices, renewable energy systems and medical devices. While they are most commonly used for real-time clock backup, they can also be used for memory backup, battery swap ride through and LED or audible alarms.
Crouzet has launched the New Millenium PLC, an upgraded, compact logic controller designed as a successor to the Millenium 3, featuring built-in Ethernet, Modbus RS-485, and SD card support.
It enhances connectivity with remote web server access, offers expanded I/O (up to 60 points), and uses the intuitive Crouzet Soft software for easier programming and migration.
Display or displayless options offer design flexibility while reducing initial costs. Each controller has eight input channels that can be ordered as eight digital channels or a mix of four high-speed digital and four digital/analog (4-20 mA) channels.
Key Features of the New Millenium PLC:
Connectivity: Built-in Ethernet (no extra module required) for web server, remote access, and Modbus RS-485 for enhanced communication.
Performance: Features twice the RAM of the previous generation, supporting larger, more complex programs.
Hardware Improvements: Enhanced, three-color customizable screen with improved navigation, plus an SD card interface for data logging and program transfer.
Scalability: Supports expansion up to 60 I/O points.
Software: Programmed with Crouzet Soft, which allows for easy conversion of legacy programs from Millenium 3.
Target Applications: Ideal for Small-Scale Automation
Pump Control
HVAC
Building Management
Allowing for both DIN Rail and Panel Mounting.
The New Millenium is designed to be highly versatile, combining the ease of use of the Millenium 3 with advanced, modern communication features.
