Axiom Hydraulics weathers the storm

These new coils protect electrically actuated cartridges against high pressure washdowns or marine environments. A weatherised coil kit goes with the coil.

The coil uses the Metri-Pack Series 150 connector for harsh environmental conditions. It includes a built-in TVS surge suppression diode, is compliant with the Restriction of Hazardous Substances directive (RoHS) and is available in voltages from 12 to 28 V DC.

In addition to withstanding the IP69K testing requirements, Sun's weatherised cartridge assemblies have passed a 1000 hour salt fog test, ensuring corrosion resistance for marine applications.

The weatherisation kit is sold separately and is cavity and model code dependent. When installing the kit, an added spotface at the top of the cavity is required to ensure adequate sealing with the manifold. Therefore weatherised coils cannot be retrofitted on products in the field and are not suitable for use with Sun's standard manifolds. Specific cavity modification instructions can be found on the individual weatherisation kit product pages.

The kit can be installed using either a Sun assembly or the client’s own custom manifold. A selection of special line mount bodies for use in weatherised assemblies is available.
