FAQs
Install by aligning the rear-mount receptacle with the panel cutout and securing it in place; use the 23.8 mm depth and 24x24 mm footprint to ensure a snug fit. The connector delivers crimp contacts and does not support a backshell option, so plan for cable routing and sealing prior to mating. Ensure proper crimp contact placement for 8-pin configuration and verify IP68 sealing after installation.
Yes, the JMXHC1A08MCUDSA is rated IP68, offering dust-tight protection and submersion-proof sealing for demanding washdown environments. The plastic shell is designed for high-visibility color coding (blue) and durability, while the rear-mount panel receptacle reduces ingress pathways. Use in conjunction with compliant cables and proper sealing practices to maintain performance in harsh industrial settings.
The connector carries a 5 A current rating at both IEC and UL levels and uses 8 gold-plated crimp contacts in a pin (male) configuration. This layout supports robust power and signal transmission for compact automation interfaces. The 8-contact arrangement enables multi-signal interconnects while preserving a small form factor and reliable mating cycles up to 2000.
Ideal for rugged factory automation, robotics, packaging lines, and outdoor machinery, the JMX series push-pull connectors provide reliable panel interconnects in tight spaces. They are well-suited to environments requiring IP68 protection, environmental compliance, and easy maintenance. The rear-mount receptacle and compact shell dimensions make it practical for control panels and equipment housings with restricted interior space.
The connector complies with UL94 V0 flammability, RoHS and REACH environmental standards, ensuring safety and environmental compliance. IP68 protection design supports rugged installations in harsh environments, while 5 A electrical ratings meet common automation task requirements. These certifications simplify procurement for regulated industries and support audit readiness for industrial equipment and machinery integrations.
