Degree of protection
The degrees of protection according to IEC60529 apply to various articles and provide information on protection against the intrusion of water and solids such as dust.
Degree of protection
IP67Fully protects against touch and against the intrusion of dust. Protects against water intrusion in temporary immersion (depth: 1 m; duration: 30 minutes).
Version
The choice of version allows the definition of certain technical specifications – for example the type of cable outlet or the size.
Version
AdapterConnecting element to each side of which a connector can be attached. This enables the realisation of, for example, control cabinet lead-throughs or a transition from the M8 to the M12 locking system.
Connector female angledConnector (socket/female) with angled cable outlet.
Connector female straightConnector (socket/female) with straight cable outlet. Here, the cable runs in mating direction.
Connector male angledConnector (pin/male) with angled cable outlet.
Connector male straightConnector (pin/male) with straight cable outlet. Here, the cable is in mating direction.
Installation type
Connectors are differentiated by installation type: those that are mounted in a device housing (panel mount) and those that are attached to cables.
Installation type
Cable mountingConnectors with cable already moulded or for self-assembly.
Housing assemblyConnectors that can be mounted to device housings. These can be fixed by means of a locking nut or be screwed in (requires a threaded hole).
EMC
Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) means that a connector is shielded or shieldable. This is required when it is necessary to protect the signals or data conducted by the connector, as well as to protect external devices, from disturbance due to electromagnetic effects.
