Latest M12 circular connectors make installation of cables a simple operation

Foremost Electronics offers the availability of two new M12 connectors from Binder. The new panel mounted Series 763 male M12 connector is an A-coded square flange male connector and is uniquely positionable and lockable which enables a simple and flexible installation of cables. The connector consists of separate housing and contact carrier enabling the flange housing to be mounted first, and the carrier can subsequently be installed from various angles. Available with four, five or eight gold-plated contacts, the new connector series is rated up to 250V and 4A and protects to IP68 when mated ensuring fast and easy termination. The male square flange panel-mount M12 connector is positionable and lockable for easy installation and handles AWG24/7 wires. Alan Vincent, sales director of Foremost, comments, “M12 connectors are one of the most popular types used in panel building and industrial control. These two new products between them offer simple to mount, secure and waterproof connectivity and the option of lead-through wiring to simplify system assembly.”
