In addition to the previously offered dip-soldered versions, this variant is now available in a second termination type.

The industrial connectors are aimed at automation and robotics technology – for example, process automation, sensor and actuator applications. For use in electromagnetically exposed environments, a shield plate may also be attached to the sleeve on the connection side.

“The panel mount part is particularly suitable for installation in confined spaces, as it can be attached directly from the front,” writes the company. “Larger fastening threads for the coupling nut typical with M12, such as M16x1.5, are not required with this product.”

On request, it adds, the body of the male panel mount connector can be pressed into the sleeve in 45° increments, according to customer specifications.

The panel mount connector can also optionally be attached with an anti-rotation device (by means of a flattening on the M12 thread).
