When it comes to reliable, efficient power distribution in challenging industrial environments, IPD (Installation Power Distribution) connectors represent a revolutionary leap forward in connectivity technology. At Proax, we understand that modern industrial installations demand solutions that combine speed, reliability, and versatility – exactly what IPD connectors deliver. As part of our comprehensive connectors portfolio, IPD systems stand out for their innovative design and practical benefits.
What Are IPD Connectors?
IPD connectors are advanced installation power distribution systems designed to simplify electrical connections in industrial, outdoor, and infrastructure applications. These innovative connectors feature tool-free Push-in and Push-Lock connection technology, making them ideal for installations in difficult-to-access areas where traditional wiring methods prove challenging.
The IPD installation system is fully pluggable and allows convenient, tool-free installation even in areas that are difficult to access, with device-side Push-in connection and field-side Push-Lock connection enabling quick and easy assembly without tools.
Key Features That Set IPD Connectors Apart
Tool-Free Installation Technology
IPD installation connectors feature flexible and tool-free connection for 3- and 5-position cables with conductor cross-sections up to 2.5 mm². This breakthrough technology eliminates the need for specialized tools, significantly reducing installation time and labor costs.
Secure Locking
To work conveniently, even under adverse conditions, the IPD connectors are equipped with a bayonet fast-locking system. The mating position snaps clearly and securely into place, with mechanical coding to protect against mismatching, and touch protection in accordance with DIN EN 0105.
Plug-in DC Device Output
The 5-position IPD DC connectors and panel feed-through enable you to easily set up the plug-in DC device output. With Push-in or Push-Lock connection, the conductor connection on the field and device side can be made conveniently without tools.
Easy Installation Without Connectors
Save on field connectors with IPD panel feed-throughs for direct cable connection. The cable is simply fed through the sleeve on the field side and connected directly to the device via Push-in Technology with feather-light plugging. Then simply snap the sleeve into place and establish strain relief via the nut, and you're done.
Reliable Installation
Long-term stable cabling in outdoor and industrial environments: With IP66, IP68, and IP69K throughout the entire system, your installation is protected against water and dust, for particularly reliable installations in harsh environments.
Applications and Industries
Lighting Industry Solutions
IPD connectors are designed for the lighting industry, making the installation of lighting fixtures in various configurations easy. The system enables the use of wiring robots on the device side and accommodates 3- and 5-pole cables up to 2.5 mm² on the field side. Our IPD installation connector series includes various configurations to meet specific lighting application requirements.
Building and Infrastructure Power Distribution
IPD distribution boards enable simple and safe power distribution in buildings or infrastructure facilities, with reliable and tool-free installation of 3- and 5-position connectors.
Industrial Automation
The robust design and high protection ratings make IPD connectors perfect for industrial automation applications where reliability and durability are paramount.
