The new devices can help to minimise the weight of flight-case or light-bar mounted lighting dimmers as well as truss-mounted hoist controllers and automation systems for theatre and concert touring, says the company.
Key features of the Han-Eco Series include inserts that accommodate tool-free, snap-in, rear-mounting modules from Harting's Han-Modular series fitting into front or rear mounting adaptor frames. The extensive range of modules available provides a high degree of flexibility by allowing connectors to be assembled to handle data, control, power, fibre-optic, coaxial and pneumatic signals. A separate PE module provides the necessary full grounding and finger-safe user protection for the mated system.
Han-Eco also features an improved hood body design that protects the free-cable end harness lever locking pegs from damage under harsh handling conditions. The housing panel cutouts are identical to those of the recognised industry standard Harting HanB series. The anti-reflective black finish can be a particular benefit for on-stage application areas where equipment has to be as inconspicuous as possible.
