Rectangular H24B HE 0241 Heavy Duty Connector (24‑pin, 16 A, 500 V) — lateral (side) entry with screw feet Key benefits Reliable power and signal connections rated for 16 A and 500 V per contact, reducing the risk of overloads or connection failure in demanding installations. Lateral (side) entry design keeps wiring accessible while saving depth behind panels — ideal for spaceconstrained control cabinets. Screwstyle connections and screw feet provide secure, vibrationresistant terminations for longterm reliability in industrial environments. 24pin configuration supports mixed signal and power wiring in a single, compact connector, simplifying harnessing and maintenance. What this connector does and why you need it Provides a heavyduty, rectangular connector solution (H24B series, model HE 0241) for robust, repeatable connections between equipment modules, panels, and cable assemblies. Eliminates the need for multiple separate connectors by accommodating up to 24 circuits in one housing, reducing panel clutter and wiring errors. The sideentry (lateral line) and screw fastening features make installation and field servicing faster and safer. Key attributes Model: HE 0241 (H24B rectangular heavy duty connector) Contacts: 24pin configuration Electrical rating: 16 A per contact, 500 V Entry style: Lateral (side) line for side access to terminals Termination: Screw connections and screw feet for secure mounting and cable clamping Intended use: Heavyduty industrial connector applications requiring durable, serviceable connections Compatibility and installation Designed to integrate with H24Bseries rectangular connector housings and mating counterparts that accept the HE 0241 contact layout. Side (lateral) entry simplifies routing of cables parallel to panel surfaces; screw feet enable stable mounting to panels or equipment frames. Suitable for field wiring with standard hand tools for screw terminations. Typical applications Industrial control panels and automation systems: bring power and multiple control signals into PLCs, motor drives, and I/O modules while keeping wiring accessible for maintenance. Machine tools and factory equipment: provide vibrationresistant connections between movable machine sections and fixed control cabinets. Mobile or transport equipment with constrained enclosure depth: use sideentry layout to route harnesses neatly and reduce required cabinet clearance. Practical considerations Verify mating H24Bseries housings and panel cutout compatibility before installation. Follow standard wiring and torque practices for screw terminations to ensure rated performance. Use the connector where a durable, serviceable 24circuit interface rated at 16 A/500 V is required. This HE 0241 rectangular heavy duty connector delivers a compact, serviceable, and robust solution for industrial and equipment wiring needs where side access and secure screw terminations are required.
