Quick Summary

LynxPOWER Micro-Mini field attachable connectors enable rugged DC power interconnects for industrial automation and control panels. Engineers need compact, IP-rated field wiring that survives washdowns, vibration, and tight equipment layouts, without sacrificing performance. This DF5D2 variant satisfies NEC/CEC IEC standards while delivering five-pole DC connectivity in a passive, male in-line format with external threads and a 90-degree bend for space-constrained installations. Its IP68 protection provides reliable operation in ordinary/non-hazardous locations, ensuring safe operation in damp and dusty environments. By aligning with the LynxPOWER ecosystem, it also supports streamlined spare-part management and compatibility with cataloged accessories. The result is reduced installation time, lower total cost of ownership, and greater design flexibility for automation projects.

The five-pole DC configuration (3 A, 300 Vdc) delivers essential power and signaling on a single compact connector, reducing terminal count and wiring complexity in control panels. This means faster wiring, fewer cold joints, and improved reliability in automated machinery. It is ideal for DC power rails in robotics, machine automation, and panel-mounted controls. IP68 protection and NEC/CEC IEC compliance ensure operation in damp, dusty environments, reducing maintenance and enclosure costs while expanding usable areas in automation lines. The external thread, 90° inline design allows quick mating and confident alignment in tight spaces at the panel edge. Cable range 6-8 mm (PG 9) supports common sensor and motor cables, cutting inventory needs. Single-key, passive construction minimizes risk of mis-mating and simplifies field replacements, improving uptime and serviceability. Access to LynxPOWER accessories enhances compatibility and future-proofing.

FAQs

To install, align the male inline DF5D2 with its mating counterpart, engage the single-key orientation, and tighten the external thread securely to ensure IP68 sealing. Use standard 6-8 mm cables (PG 9) and verify the 3A, 300 Vdc rating is appropriate for the circuit. After mating, check the enclosure gasket integrity and conduct a continuity test across all five poles.
DF5D2 provides five poles for DC power and signaling, rated 3A at 300 Vdc. It accepts 6-8 mm cables (PG 9), with a passive connector design and a 90° external-thread configuration to fit tight panel layouts, minimize cable clutter, and simplify field wiring in control cabinets and automation equipment.
Yes. DF5D2 is IP68-rated and intended for Ordinary/Non-Hazardous Locations per NEC/CEC IEC standards, making it appropriate for washdowns, dust, and vibration-prone automation settings without requiring additional enclosures.
The connector complies with NEC/CEC IEC standards and carries a NEMA rating of 1, 6P, 13, 3, 4. Its IP68 rating confirms robust protection for field wiring in industrial environments.
DF5D2 reduces installation time with a compact 90° inline design, minimizes spare-part complexity through a single matched connector, and improves uptime via IP68 protection and reliable five-pole DC connectivity for control panels and field wiring.
