IP68/69k sealing and a robust plastic shell protect sensitive connections in washdown and outdoor environments, reducing the risk of water ingress and corrosion. This translates to fewer unplanned outages and lower maintenance costs as equipment uptime improves and service life extends in demanding facilities. The 4-position plug with gold-plated solder cups ensures reliable current transfer and long-lasting signal integrity across automation panels, sensors, and field-wiring harnesses. The straight mating interface and backshell sealing gland enable quick, tool-free installation even in tight spaces, supporting faster installation times and repeatable assemblies in production lines. Operating from -40 °C to 105 °C and with strong UV and chemical resistance, the connector remains dependable through extreme temperature swings and harsh environments, lowering replacement needs over the lifecycle. With 250 mating cycles, users gain predictable lifecycle costs and reduced total cost of ownership, while compatibility with standard RoHS-compliant assemblies simplifies procurement and design-in for global deployments. The 3–12 mm cable diameter range provides design flexibility, reducing parts variety and enabling common cabling strategies across products and lines.
