IP68/IP69K protection translates to reliable sealing in washdowns and harsh climates, reducing unplanned downtime and extending service intervals. The 3-pin PCB contact with gold plating provides corrosion resistance and low contact resistance, ensuring stable signals and power delivery to panels and drives. With a 7 A current rating and 250 V voltage rating, it suits low-power automation circuits while offering a comfortable safety margin in automation panels. The 25.3 mm length and 24 mm width and height enable a compact footprint for densely populated enclosures, while the jam-nut receptacle and hold-down clips simplify panel mounting without a backshell. The 1/3 Bayonet coupling yields fast mating and robust retention, which speeds installation and field maintenance. Operating temperature from -40 to 105 °C and 250 mating cycles deliver durability and cost efficiency for long-life control connections. Insert material neoprene and a durable plastic shell support resistance to oils, fuels, and UV exposure, making it ideal for industrial environments and outdoor machinery.
