Powerful energy chains equipped with HARTING Han-Modular® interfaces
igus® GmbH is cooperating with HARTING as a supplier and design-in partner of modular industrial connectors Han®. This collaboration is ensuring that the installation of interfaces for the power and signal transmission can be integrated efficiently and safely into their in-house production processes for energy chains and cable systems.
Data, power and signals for energy chains
The company supplies ready to- connect energy chains including all corresponding components. The cables for supplying the facilities with data, power and signals are safely routed through the plastic chains. Depending on the customer's requirements, special guide channels can enhance the quiet, low-friction movement of the chains and minimise the strain on the cables.

Powerful energy chains equipped with HARTING Han-Modular® interfaces
From high-current transmissions to Profibus networks
A
Our modular connector portfolio includes contacts and inserts for power up to 200 A / 1000 V, high voltage modules for max. 40 A / 5000 V, as well as signal modules with an assembly density of up to 25 contacts per single module (4 to 10 A and 50 to 250 V).
There are also Ethernet Cat. 6A interfaces and modules for fibre optic transmission in single and multimode fibres, as well as various BUS technologies (for example, Profibus). The Han® Pneumatic module provides the option of transferring conditioned compressed air at up to 10 bar.

Good reasons to trust HARTING!
Quality and innovativeness of the components
Delivery reliability and competitiveness of the supplier
Variable cable assemblies possible based on Han-Modular®
Clarity in format and design of the HARTING products: for simple
installation
The rectangle connectors made by HARTING are versatile and yet easy to handle. Thus, the completely pre-assembled high quality power chain systems made by igus® – supplied by HARTING industrial connectors – are more quickly delivered to our customers worldwide.

Optimally integrating the interface installation
That is why the standards required for assembling the interfaces can easily be transferred to the other twelve igus® production plants around the world.
"In this way, our customers from around the world receive complete, ready-made high-quality energy chain systems from igus® more quickly – supplied with HARTING's industrial connectors."
For the automation engineer, the Han-Modular® series is a particularly attractive item in the connector manufacturer's portfolio. By integrating several inserts with different functions into a single hood/housing, interfaces can be dimensioned in a very space-saving and cost-conscious manner.
Modular connectors can be adapted flexibly to various installation situations. This reduces the associated installation and maintenance efforts.
Han-Modular® – versatile for customised hybrid systems
It is almost always possible to adapt when using the Han- Modular® portfolio because it is so comprehensive. A limitation is only reached when cable specifications do not allow sufficient physical space for the wiring. Such problems can usually be remedied with careful dimensioning. In certain cases, power and signal transmissions must be shielded from each other. HARTING offers specific solutions – such as the Han® Shielded module. This module is used to transmit highly sensitive voltage signals which should not be exposed to external influences.
