Backplane and Connectors ALSTOM
In addition to manufacturing and designing the backplane, HARTING has collaborated with the customer in developing the special DIN 41612 connectors. The backplane illustrated is used for control purposes. The connectors are deployed in various controlunit applications.
Thanks to its own backplane manufacturing capability, HARTING provides customers with the option of sourcing complete modules. In this way clients not only receive individual components, but also comprehensive system modules. The connector shown from the DIN 41612 range was equipped with two special flanges. The flanges ensure a safe connection that compensates for the slight tolerances that occur, for example, with mechanical inserts. Drawing on these strengths, HARTING products are supporting safe and reliable operations in the rail technology sector.
