Quick-disconnect M8 cables and M12 field wireable connectors from AutomationDirect

February 19, 2020

Quick-disconnect cables have a 3, 4 or 5-socket M8 female connector on one end and 3, 4 or 5 open leads on the other end to provide fast and easy connection between field devices and terminal connections. A “lock in place” nickel plated brass or zinc coupling nut resists high levels of shock and vibration.

AutomationDirect’s new 5-pole, M8 (Pico) quick-disconnect cables are available with axial or right-angle female connectors and pigtail wiring in 1.5, 5 and 10M cable lengths. The black PUR (polyurethane) jacket of these cables is well-suited for oily, direct sunlight and robotic applications. Starting at $8.50, the 5-pole cables are IP67 rated, UL and CSA approved and have a 1-year warranty.

The 5-pole, 125V AC/DC, right-angle female M12 screw connectors ($9.75) are field wireable, IP67 rated once properly assembled and accept various cable gauges and diameters. Plastic housings offer good resistance against chemicals and oils.

Converter Cables Create Possibilities for Mobile Equipment Makers

Balluff’s new double-ended converter cables with automotive style connectors create new options for manufacturers in the heavy equipment industry. By pairing an M12 to Deutsch DT or AMP Superseal connectors with several common pin outs, the converter cables give manufacturers the option of using sensors without pre-installed automotive style connectors. They can, instead, select the standard sensor that best meets their application requirements to use with a converter cable.

binder: New M8 12-Pin Circular Connector for Demanding Industrial Applications

binder has recently launched an M8 12-pin circular connector. This product complements the existing M8 series and sets new standards for applications in industrial sensor technology, measurement and control, technology, in camera technology and robotics. The circular connector offers significant advantages, particularly in terms of miniaturization, flexibility, and performance. Modern machines and automation systems are becoming smaller and more powerful. To design devices efficiently, all components, including connectors, must take up as little space as possible.
