HR34P, IPX7/IPX8 rated Waterproof Blind Mate Connectors

HIROSE Electric Co. Ltd, a world-class manufacturer in connectors, has developed HR34P series to respond various needs required for unmanned mobile devices and contributes to the improvement of design freedom and weight reduction of equipment sets.

AGV (Automatic Guided Vehicle) and AMR (Autonomous Mobile Robot) continue to increase their presence in the transportation sector of distribution warehouses, driven by the rapid growth of the EC market. This growth is characterized by an increase in material volume and operation sophistication through multi-frequency, multi-variety, and small-lot deliveries. Drones are gaining usage not only in logistics but also in sectors like agriculture, construction, and civil engineering. They are expected to be widely used in all fields of society, including firefighting and rescue operations.

Unmanned mobile devices are finding increasing use in a variety of applications, requiring a growing need for diverse connectors.  In particular, in order to extend their range, these devices are becoming smaller and lighter. Due to their efficient manufacturing and maintenance, they have become modular units.

Hirose Electric has started sales of the HR34P series,  IPX7/IPX8 rated waterproof blind mate connectors with a floating structure that absorbs misalignment of the engaging axes between units. These connectors are ideal for modules like fans, which often require replacement as they age.
