These new versions withstand high levels of vibration and shock and are ideal for fitting to inductive sensors instrumentation and controls systems.
Panel-mount connector variants fitted with Ethernet cable
The extensive range of binder M8 panel-mount connectors has been enhanced with the introduction of new male and female connectors with Ethernet cable. Mounted from inside the panel and fixed with an M10 nut on the outside, the connectors are pre-installed on 0.5m of CAT 5e Ethernet cable for wiring into an Ethernet switch.
Power connectors enhanced with three pole versions
The extensive range of binder M12 s-coded power connectors has been enhanced with the introduction of new three pole (2+PE) versions with a pre-engaging contact and featuring both field attachable cable and panel mount versions with wires. Previously only available in 4-pole (3+PE), these new versions are ideal for mains voltage (250V) applications.
Sealing kit enhances harsh environment connector
The recently introduced Binder HEC (Harsh Environment Connector) now has a single wire sealing kit for fitting to the rear of panel mount connectors suitable for sealing signal wires up to 1.5mm2 (AWG 16) and power wires up to 2.5mm2 (AWG). This ensures that the rear of the connector inside the panel is sealed to IP67 and provides effective protection against humidity on the connection side.
