COB system: mounting any multipole connector on DIN Rail

COB systemThe COB system of panel supports allows the use of multipole connectors within electric panels without the traditional metallic enclosures (Bases/Hoods). These supports can be assembled on 35mm DIN rails (both lengthways and perpendicular to the support), on panel surfaces using screws, or in appropriate cut-outs.


Mounting on DIN rail or on a backplate requires no special tooling, and permits wide access to the fixed half of the connector for wiring. COB  supports feature a sturdy frame made of reinforced self-extinguishing thermoplastic resin, equipped with two latches for mounting the mobile half of the connector. The standard metal hoods for ILME connectors can be used, as well as specially designed insulating hoods for mobile assembly.

Four sizes of supports are available, which accommodate - either directly or by means of adapter plates – all the most popular series of multipole connector inserts, from 6 to 108 poles, including the modular series of MIXO inserts.

The whole family of COB supports and accessories is UL recognized.
