Woodhead Launches the Ultra-Lock-TM-Connection System for Food, Beverage and Pharmaceutical Equipment Manufacturers.DEERFIELD, Ill. -- BradConnectivity(TM) Ultra-Lock System for the connection of sensors and control devices features unthreaded stainless steel stainless steel: see steel. stainless steel Any of a family of alloy steels usually containing 10–30% chromium. The presence of chromium, together with low carbon content, gives remarkable resistance to corrosion and heat. connectors, IP69K, and patented "push-to-lock" technology for faster, easier and more secure connections Woodhead Industries, Inc., (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :WDHD WDHD World Digestive Health Day ), a global developer, manufacturer and marketer of Automation and Electrical products for industrial environments, announces the availability of a stainless steel version of the BradConnectivity Ultra-Lock Connection System specifically designed and engineered to meet the stringent sanitary requirements of food, beverage and pharmaceutical manufacturers. Woodhead pioneered this unique thread-less connection system, which is used to quickly and securely connect sensors and control devices used in plant floor automation systems, such as conveyors and robotic bottling and processing lines. The M12-compatible Ultra-Lock System is comprised of a series of integrated distribution boxes and cordsets built on Woodhead's patented push-to-lock technology, which enables fast, easy installation without turning the coupler Refers to a myriad of different types of sockets for plugging in electric or electronic cables or devices.

John Sullivan (b. February 17 1740, Somersworth, New Hampshire – d. , Senior Product Manager at Woodhead L.P., "Our specialized stainless steel version of the Ultra-Lock System is designed to fully comply with regulations relative to plant sanitation in highly protected industries. In selecting Ultra-Lock products to connect their automation systems, these manufacturers can gain all of the unique advantages of Ultra-Lock technology, while still maintaining sanitation best practices." Sanitation in plant operations run by food, beverage, pharmaceutical and personal care product manufacturers are strictly regulated by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA FDA abbr. Food and Drug Administration FDA, n.pr See Food and Drug Administration. FDA, n.pr the abbreviation for the Food and Drug Administration. ) to ensure the purity and safety of their products. With FDA regulations in mind, Woodhead designed its Ultra-Lock Connection System design to include the following features: --Smooth-Surfaced, Stainless Steel Couplers. The system's push-to-lock connectors are made of 316 stainless steel with an absolutely smooth surface to prevent the transfer of bacteria and/or contaminants during processing and equipment wash-down. Similarly, their secure fit and thread-less design prevents the lodging of any foreign material within threaded grooves. The threading in traditional M12 connectivity systems is one of the main reasons why such quick-connect systems have not gained acceptance in the food and beverage F&B is a common abbreviation in the United States and Commonwealth countries, including Hong Kong. F&B is typically the widely accepted abbreviation for "Food and Beverage," which is the sector/industry that specializes in the conceptualization, the making of, and delivery of foods. industries in the past. --IP69K Radial Seal Coupling. The typical compression seal used in threaded connectors is dependent on how tight the operator makes the connection - too loose can allow moisture to penetrate; too tight can cause damage to the O-ring seal, which can also let in moisture and create electrical difficulties. The Ultra-Lock(TM) O-ring seal is an IP69K-rated radial seal that is operator-independent and maintains a constant pressure seal against moisture. In the Ultra-Lock System, the seals have been tested to water pressure of 1500 psi at close range, so they can withstand the frequent equipment wash-downs typical in food and beverage plants.
