STAUBLI 15.0659-20
The STAUBLI 15.0659-20 is a single-pole circular plug from Stäubli's 16BV series. It is used when a robust and safe connection is required for heavy-duty cables in systems where high demands are placed on both current capacity and touch safety.
The 16BV series is a Ø 16 mm circular connector solution with bayonet lock and MULTILAM contact technology. In practice, this means that the connection is designed to lock securely and provide a stable contact surface. The series is rated for 1000 V and 530 A, placing it among heavy-duty electrical connections, not for small signal cables, but for significant power applications.
The specific KST16BV-AX/M40/50-70 version is designed for flexible cables with a conductor cross-section of 50–70 mm². It uses an AxiClamp connection, which is the type of cable termination Stäubli specifies for flexible conductors in this version. The catalog also specifies an H07RN-F cable gland range of Ø 50–70 mm.
The assembly is protected to IP2X when the plug is disconnected and IP65 when assembled. This makes it relevant when the connection needs to withstand demanding industrial environments, but still be able to connect safely and quickly during operation.
