Series
Hazardous Rated Connectors EX Zone 1 & 2
smaller size and more contact options
INTRODUCTION
With the ever growing need for more power and
sig- nal in a smaller interface in ATEX rated areas,
Amphenol is pleased to introduce the Amphe-EX
circular connector series.
Designed for Hazardous Environments
AMPHE-EX Connector Series is designed for use in
ATEX and IECex rated areas. AMPHE-EX connectors
are equipped to handle signal, power, RF or fiber optic
requirements in the most harsh environments. AMPHE-
EX connectors offer a complete array of insert patterns,
ranging from 2 # 20 contacts, right up through 79
# 22D contacts, and everything in between.
In addition, AMPHE-EX is able to provide RJ45
connections and fiber optic termini into an ATEX and
IECex approved interconnect solution.
Chemical Manufacturing, Pharmaceutical
Manufacturing, Petrochemical Refineries, Land and
Offshore Drilling Platforms are just a few of the areas
that the new AMPHE-EX Series will provide
increased performance.
AMPHE-EX connectors are made from machined
aluminum components, and plated in a hard anodic
coating designed to withstand the most extreme
environments. Double-lead acme threads allow for a
self cleaning mating action that does not clog under
adverse conditions of ice, snow, mud or sand. The
specific materials and design features of the AMPHE-
EX series were originally selected to satisfy the
stringent requirements of the Military and Aerospace
industries. These connectors combine electrical and
mechanical capabilities that equal or exceed many of
the parameters established by the Military
specification MIL-5015.
Amphenol Industrial, one of the leading interconnect
suppliers to Industrial markets around the world,
welcomes this new product to it’s current offering of
harsh environment interconnect solutions.
