ULC remote series

Industrial connectors, backshells and contacts

Our ULC remote connectors are designed to be connected by remote manipulator arms in vitrification lines, overhead cranes, waste storage and other applications. Through the years, our continually improved designs based on feedback from the field have resulted in highly reliable connectors for remote-control operations, including those in highly contaminated areas.

ULC remote connectors feature flat surfaces for robot handling and guiding forks for easy manipulation and mating. Part of the ULC range, our remote-controled connectors provide a push-pull coupling to prevent accidental disconnections and minimize mate force for improved ergonomics. Equipped with eight different keying, with a visual color code, ULC remote connectors ensure corrected mating while protecting contacts during the mating process. Titanium and stainless steel shells enhance the connectors’ resistance against high radiation and high temperature.

Our ULC remote series connectors are recognized by Underwriters Laboratory Inc.® as compliant with the UL 1977 standard (Component Connectors for Use in Data, Signal, Control and Power Applications).
