Connector for use with five sensors

A 5-pole M12 connector uses the Harax easy-assembly IDC technique.

Harting has introduced a 5-pole M12 connector which uses the company's Harax easy-assembly IDC technique.

The new Harax M12-L 5-pole device has been designed to meet growing industry requirements for sensor applications where five connections are involved.

It is also compatible with industrial bus systems including the thin-cable DeviceNet and the Safety Bus P.

Cables with wire gauges from 0.25mm up to 0.5mm can be terminated using the time-saving Harax IDC technique.

Harax is a detachable insulation displacement connector system that combines the advantages of connectors and threaded cable glands in a single technology.

Quick, easy termination is accomplished by simply removing the cable insulation, inserting the individual, non-stripped wires into the Harax connector and tightening a screw cap.

No special tools are required.

The resulting gas-tight connection qualifies for an IP67 rating, making the system ideal for industrial applications.

Harax is also compatible with round cables containing a low number of strands, making it optimal for areas where sensors and actuator boxes are used.
