Because they tightly thread to M12 connections, these connectors won’t let contaminants in or come loose from vibration in rugged industrial environments and automated systems as they send power and signal or just power to your equipment. Their poles and keyways adhere to standard coding layouts, reducing the chance you’ll mismatch connectors.

A- and C-coded connectors send both power and signal, while K-, L-, S-, and T-coded connectors only send power. Choose A-coded connectors for AC and DC sensors, actuators, motors, light curtains, and other devices. They’re often used to connect equipment to IO Link controllers and within Profibus, DeviceNet, and other fieldbus systems. C-coded connectors are often used with AC sensors and actuators.

Receptacles thread into panels and walls, making them best for stationary or permanent installations such as control panels. 90° elbow connectors run your cord along the side of equipment, so they fit behind machines and in tight spaces.

IP67 and IP68 rated connectors can withstand brief submersion. Add caps to protect connectors and maintain their IP and NEMA ratings when not in use.

Note: Sockets and female receptacles may have extra holes on their face that are not used.

Thread these connectors onto intrinsically safe devices and sensors for a secure connection that won't shake loose or ignite explosive gas, dust, or fibers. Using a NAMUR signal, these connectors operate at a low enough current and voltage that they prevent sparks. Poles and keyways on the connector face adhere to standard coding layouts, reducing the risk of mismatching connections. All have A coding, so you can use them to send power and signal to AC and DC sensors, actuators, motors, light curtains, and other devices. They’re also often used in fieldbus systems, such as Profibus and DeviceNet, or to connect devices to IO Link controllers and modules.

Thanks to their polyurethane insulation, these connectors are flexible and durable enough for the continuous motion of machine tools. Polyurethane is also chemical resistant and free of halogen, which can corrode metal and is dangerous to inhale.

IP rated when mated, they protect against dust, temporary submersion, and high-pressure, high-temperature washdowns. All are CE marked to meet European safety, health, and environmental protection requirements.

90° elbow connectors fit snugly against equipment, so they’re good for tight spaces.
