Camden Electronics has introduced a neat adaptor that converts symmetric "top-hat" style DIN rail mounting products to asymmetric G-style mountings The new adaptor is ideal for converting all types of equipment designed for top-hat style DIN rail mounting to mount on legacy G-style rails that are frequently found in many industrial installations, particularly control panels in utilities

DIN rail mounting PCB enclosure range extended
Camden Electronics has extended its range of DIN rail mounting PCB enclosures with a new size 5 version complementing the existing six sizes.
Female clamp terminals get new pitch
Camden Electronics, the UK's prime source for PCB terminal blocks, has added to its vertical female plug-in rising clamp terminals with a new 5.08mm pitch version.
Equipment such as relay sockets, contactors, timers, temperature controllers, control modules and anything designed for a top-hat style DIN rail can now be mounted on a G-style rail simply and easily.
The adaptor simply fits onto the DIN rail mounting part of the component and clips onto the asymmetric G-style rail so that, should an installation be changed to top-hat style later, the same equipment can then be mounted without the adaptor.
Moulded in self-extinguishing UL94-V0 industry standard green polyamide 66 and also available in grey or black on request, the new DIN rail adaptor extends Camden Electronics' versatile range of DIN rail mounting products that encompasses relay modules, IDC and subminiature 'D' connectors, diode modules, fuse modules and empty modular interface supports for 72 and 107mm wide PCBs.
Camden Electronics' new DIN rail adaptors are available from the company and its franchised distributors including CPC, Rapid, Arrow Electronics, JPR Electronics and, most recently, Essex-based Quality Components.
