FAQs
For installation, ensure the straight plug aligns with the mating receptacle and that the 12-pin layout matches your panel harness. Since contact delivery is unloaded, pre-assembly of solder cups is required on the harness, and there is no backshell option available, so plan cabling routing and protection accordingly. Use appropriate strain relief and secure mounting to minimize movement in vibration-heavy environments.
The 12-pin configuration enables consolidated power and signal paths within a compact footprint, reducing harness complexity and cross-talk in control panels. Solder cup contacts provide solid, low-impedance connections suitable for reliable data and power transfer, while the straight plug simplifies field assembly and maintenance in dense automation environments.
The brass shell and non-reflective black chrome plating offer durability and corrosion resistance, which helps in challenging environments. The operating range of -40 °C to 125 °C supports wide temperature exposure, but verify any additional IP or environmental certifications with Eaton to ensure explicit suitability for outdoor or high-humidity conditions.
The provided data does not list specific CE, IP, or SIL certifications. Before deployment, obtain Eaton’s official datasheet or product declaration of conformity to confirm required approvals for your region and application. This ensures alignment with regulatory standards and customer compliance requirements.
The sealed breakaway design minimizes moisture ingress and vibration-induced disconnects, reducing field failures and downtime. Quick-release capability lowers maintenance time during servicing, while the robust brass shell and plating extend service life in harsh environments. Over a lifecycle, this translates to lower maintenance costs, fewer production interruptions, and improved system reliability in lighting and emergency installations.
