Hybrid (Mini) Connector

Hybrid Connector technology from CPC eliminates the need for multiple connections between remote tools and a device. For applications requiring a smaller footprint, the new Mini Hybrid provides a compact, single connection point for both air and electrical lines.

With a breakaway latching mechanism, the Mini Hybrid simplifies the user interface, speeds device setup and enhances user perception of overall device performance. Combining all the connection points into an integrated, proven assembly also improves patient safety by eliminating misconnections.

The Mini Hybrid incorporates our reliable SMC coupling platform and features gold-plated brass electrical contacts. Engineers can confidently specify the Mini Hybrid for their pneumatic and low power applications. Save your valuable engineering resources with the off-the-shelf, turnkey solution or work with our design team to create a customized solution for your specific application.
