Connectivity solutions for harsh environments

Electronics Sourcing Electronica 2024 Special

Visit Bulgin’s Electronica stand to discover how its product portfolio, design skills and manufacturing services combine to deliver robust connectivity solutions.

Fast, secure and robust power and data transmission lie at the heart of numerous applications, requiring reliable connectivity solutions in even the toughest environments. Harsh conditions—from extreme temperatures and moisture to dust and high pressures—can wreak havoc with connectors, potentially leading to costly failures. Dependable power supplies and communications are therefore reliant on rugged components that can endure the extremes of Mother Nature.

Bulgin’s solutions include the Buccaneer IP66, IP67, IP68 and IP69K rated waterproof circular connector range—with both power and data options—plus, mains/IEC connectors, battery/fuse holders, EMI filters, indicators, switches, vandal resistant LEDs, voltage selectors and IP67 enclosures, all manufactured in ISO 9001 accredited factories.

Bulgin offers bespoke services and solutions tailored to fit specific applications alongside its range of off-the-shelf products, including pre-built, custom-configured cable assemblies. The Bulgin team works closely with customers to develop solutions that meet their requirements and can incorporate items from other manufacturers into the build. This collaborative approach ensures every aspect of the assembly—from electrical performance to durability—meets the highest standards and addresses specific project needs.

Every bespoke build is backed by human-centred design and turnkey project management, helping effortlessly transition to full-scale manufacturing. This is supported by the company’s state-of-the-art facilities and cutting-edge design tools, including computer-aided design and rapid prototyping. All products—including catalogue and tailored solutions—undergo thorough testing, ensuring every item meets the highest international standards and can withstand the harshest environmental conditions.

Bulgin customers—from robotics and automotive manufacturing to pharmaceutical production, semiconductor manufacturing and food processing—rely on its connectivity solutions to provide protection from water, chemicals, vibrations and extreme temperatures.

The company’s products are also used in the marine sector, which presents a variety of unique challenges both above and below water, including pressure, saltwater corrosion and temperature fluctuations. Bulgin serves these industries with connectivity solutions designed to last. The company’s products have an inherent longevity that reduces the need to maintain, dispose of and replace electrical components, ultimately decreasing waste and minimising environmental impact.
