Premier Cable introduces the newly developed ZH23-3/14B-6-B, a Russian-style 3-pin circular aviation plug belonging to the ZH23 / СНЦ23 connector family.

The ZH23 3 Pin Bayonet Circular Plug features a size 14 metal housing, three Φ1.5mm gold-plated copper alloy male contacts, a bayonet quick-lock coupling mechanism, and a straight cable clamp tail attachment.

Unlike fixed panel-mounted connectors, this cable-end plug is designed for termination to an external cable assembly. Its rear cable clamp provides mechanical cable retention, while the front mating interface connects to a compatible female-contact connector.

It is suitable for industrial machinery, instrumentation, specialized electronic systems, and legacy equipment using compatible Russian-style circular interfaces.

This connector establishes a detachable three-contact electrical connection between cable assemblies and compatible equipment interfaces.

Depending on the verified electrical ratings and wiring design, it can be used for low-frequency AC circuits, DC power connections, equipment control signals, and other compatible electrical applications.

A typical connection arrangement is:

Internal Equipment Circuit → Panel-Mounted Female Connector → ZH23-3/14B-6-B Male Plug → External Cable → Connected Equipment.

The straight cable clamp tail attachment provides cable retention and helps reduce mechanical stress transmitted directly to the soldered wire terminations during normal operation.

Product Features

Straight Cable Clamp Tail Attachment

Unlike simplified rear attachment configurations, this model features a straight cable clamp tail attachment that routes the cable along the connector axis. The clamp secures the cable jacket and helps reduce direct mechanical loading on the soldered contacts during cable movement.

Metal Housing and Surface Finish

The connector uses a metal circular housing, with anodized aluminum alloy and nickel-plated zinc alloy options identified in the series documentation. The housing provides mechanical support, mating alignment, and structural protection for the internal insulator and contacts.

Solder Contact Termination

The connector uses solder termination for attaching individual conductors to the corresponding contacts. Combined with the straight cable clamp, this arrangement separates electrical termination from mechanical cable retention.

Typical Applications

◆ Industrial Automation Equipment

Suitable for low-frequency control and auxiliary power connections in industrial control equipment, PLC systems, automated machinery, and electrical modules. The cable-end plug mates with a compatible equipment-side female connector for convenient installation and maintenance.

◆ Legacy Equipment Maintenance and Replacement

Supports maintenance, refurbishment, and cable replacement projects involving equipment originally fitted with СНЦ23-3/14В-6-В connectors. Verification of interface dimensions, keying, contact layout, and rear attachment configuration can help minimize equipment redesign.

Product FAQ

What Type of Connector Is ZH23-3/14B-6-B ?

ZH23-3/14B-6-B is a ZH23 series 3-pin male circular aviation plug featuring a size 14 metal shell, bayonet coupling mechanism, and straight cable clamp tail attachment. It is suitable for industrial equipment, instrumentation, and Russian-style connector replacement applications.

Why Does This Connector Use a Straight Cable Clamp Tail Attachment ?

The straight cable clamp attachment allows the cable to exit along the connector axis while providing mechanical retention for the cable jacket. This helps reduce stress on soldered terminations caused by normal cable movement and handling.

Is ZH23-3/14B-6-B a Male or Female Connector ?

ZH23-3/14B-6-B features three Φ1.5mm gold-plated male contacts and is designed to mate with a compatible three-socket female-contact connector. In the model designation, B indicates male contacts, while 6 identifies the straight cable clamp tail configuration.

Does Premier Cable Offer Custom Connectors and Wholesale Supply ?

Premier Cable can evaluate OEM customization requirements for ZH23 series connectors, including male and female contacts, rear attachments, cable lengths, wire specifications, and termination methods. Wholesale and bulk purchasing inquiries are welcome, with MOQ, lead time, and customization options confirmed according to project requirements.
