Novamill 42 pin connector pins

[Clive S]

I am doing a conversion on a Novamill and require a couple of pins for the connector socket.

The plug has a name contart on it. there is a ref. on the docs for the pin "male insert B1 357 H
25039
25040
25041

Any clue as to where I could get them and do they need a tool to insert them.

RS do the bits, but I can't find the details right now.

Don't know why that has got Contart on it, but it's a Harting connector system.

I can tell you the release tool is RS part no 114-7728, as I had to buy one to swap a few things around on my Triac. I thought I had also ordered the terminals, but a search of my email isn't showing any relevant orders other than for the release tool.

That's very helpful, thanks.

The relevant Harting catalogue for that connector should be attached, so probably best to double check measurements/contacts, as the Triac uses more terminals. I'm pretty sure they still use the same series of connector, just the Triac has two more rectangular modules in the housing.

I thought I had ordered contacts, but I can't find any or any evidence of ordering them. I suspect I may of just reused contacts, as they require a circular crimp tool which I definitely don't have. If you crimp them with normal crimping pliers they might not fit the housing, as they are quite a tight fit.

Thanks for the info.

I ordered these https://uk.rs-online.com/web/p/heavy-duty-power-connector-accessories/0408319/ 4pm last night and they were here by 12 noon.

I soldered the cables into the pins and slid them in from the back. simples.:victorious: So now I have enough cables to change the feed & speed pots to alps encoders.
