The world is switching to renewable sources of energy for a greener living, among which wind energy is widely popular these days. As we all know, the basic functionality behind a wind turbine is to convert the kinetic energy from winds to electric power. There are wide varieties of wind turbines, in different sizes and shapes.

Amphenol is a pioneer in providing ideal connectors and cable assemblies to meet both conventional and advanced application requirements.  For all the technical, operational and even commercial challenges you face, we offer the right interconnect solutions in varied pitches, contact options, stack heights and terminations. 

With rapid developments in industrial automation, PLC or Programmable Logic Controllers are being an essential part of any manufacturing environment. We have already discussed in detail about the basics of PLCs in the earlier article “PLC- The Intelligent Industrial Computer”. 

Travel by rail is fast, efficient, and eco-friendly. Rail systems comprise of rolling stock like locomotives, coaches, and wagons, and signaling equipment like track-side switches, and base stations.  Trains are either hauled by a locomotive or run as independent multiple units, both with either diesel or electric propulsion.

Not all connectors are built equally for use in all environments. There are many machines exposed to extreme temperatures, shock, vibration, and contamination from liquid and dust ingress. This harsh environment can result in poor performance and impact the entire system. To perform in these extreme conditions, engineers started to enhance industry standard connectors.

Amphenol ICC offers a wide range of harsh environment connectors for multiple industries and applications.
