ZH23 Series 3 Pin Bayonet Circular Connector

Product Information

The ZH23 series 3 pin bayonet connector provides a compact solution for low-frequency AC and DC circuit connections. Its 3-contact configuration is suitable for equipment where a limited number of electrical connection points are required without adding unnecessary connector size or complexity.

The connector incorporates a five-button positioning structure that helps establish the correct mating orientation and an anti-insertion design that helps reduce incorrect connection. Once aligned, the bayonet coupling mechanism enables the plug to be quickly engaged and secured with a simple rotational movement.

Designed for demanding operating environments, the ZH23 series features a wide operating temperature range from -60°C to +200°C, 96-hour salt spray resistance and specified vibration and impact performance. The connector can also be matched and interchanged with corresponding Russian СНЦ23 series components after dimensional and electrical verification.

Characteristics

• -- 3-pin straight plug configuration for compact electrical connection

• -- Five-button positioning structure for controlled mating orientation

• -- Anti-insertion design helps reduce incorrect connection

• -- Bayonet coupling supports fast installation and removal

• -- Gold-plated copper alloy contacts

• -- PPS insulating material

• -- Aluminum alloy or industrial-grade zinc alloy shell construction

• -- Wide operating temperature range from -60°C to +200°C

• -- Mechanical and working life of up to 500 cycles

Operating Principle

During connection, the five-button positioning structure guides the plug toward the corresponding socket orientation. After alignment, the plug is rotated to engage the bayonet mechanism and establish a secure mechanical connection.

The three gold-plated copper alloy contacts provide the conductive path, while PPS insulation separates the electrical contacts. The metal shell construction and surface treatments help the connector maintain its specified performance under environmental exposure.

Applications

The 3 pin ZH23 connector is suitable for low-frequency AC and DC circuits in industrial equipment, control systems, instrumentation, automation equipment, electrical devices and other applications requiring a compact connector with quick coupling and environmental resistance.
