Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 2G1W5 layout houses 8 contacts (3x #16, 5x #20) in a compact 28 mm width, enabling higher I/O density on control panels and machine hoods, reducing panel footprint and wiring complexity. This supports faster install times and easier field upgrades in robotics and assembly lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP68-rated housing provides outstanding ingress protection against dust, water, and oil—significantly extending service life in wash-down environments such as food & beverage and packaging lines, lowering maintenance frequency. Feature → Business Impact → Application: First mate last break with ground cavity ensures safer disconnections during maintenance, minimizing accidental energization and improving technician safety on machines and conveyors. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 16 A current rating and 500/600 V operating voltages cover typical servo drives and automation power needs, enabling a single connector family for both power and control signals in automation cabinets. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Push-Pull coupling and straight plug design simplify installation in tight spaces, speeding up panel builds and reducing installation errors, while the 1000 mating cycles support longer equipment lifecycles in high-use environments. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Environmental resistance including oil, mineral oil, and UV exposure with UV resistance ensures performance in outdoor or harsh environments, supporting long-term reliability for OEMs and integrators building industrial machinery.
