About Signal/Power Connectors

Nano M8 Connectors

Also known as pico connectors, these are for low-current devices such as 8 mm and smaller proximity switches and photoelectric switches.

Sockets and female receptacles may have extra holes on the face that are not used.

Connectors with a snap-on wire connection pierce the insulation to eliminate the need for wire stripping. They maintain a secure hold in high-vibration applications.

IP65 rated connectors protect against dust and low-pressure jets of water.

IP67 rated connectors protect against dust and temporary submersion.

IP68 rated connectors protect against dust and submersion.

NEMA 6 rated connectors protect against dust, washdowns, and temporary submersion.

Push-In Miniaturized Connectors

Push these connectors together to quickly create signal and data connections in tight spaces. All are smaller than M5 and M8 connectors. They also need less space to mate than screw-together connectors, which require two hands to twist them in place. However, screw-together connectors offer a more secure hold. These connectors have pin connections and a half-round or V-notched face for a snug fit that resists shock and vibration. Rated for over 2,000 mating cycles, the pins stand up to repeated connections and disconnections. Plugs can only mate with sockets of the same size, latch option, and pole count.

Connectors with a wire lead connection come with wire leads attached to save you time on installation.

Add latching clips to connectors without a built-in latch to secure your mated connections.

Socket × Socket (Back)

Reduce the number of cords needed to send and receive signals where space is tight. These splitters have an M8 plug and two M8 sockets, which are smaller than M12 plugs and sockets. Use them to connect two sensors, switches, and devices to a single cord or port in a distribution block or I/O module.

IP67 rated when connected, these splitters seal out dust and water if briefly submersed.
