Sensor/actuator connector socket. M12, socket, straight. In today's world, custom cable lengths are often required. To meet this demand, Weidmüller offers a wide portfolio of connectors for free configuration. Connectors and sockets for free configuration for M8, M12, M16, and 7/8" connections are very robust and particularly suitable for mechanical engineering. The M12 connectors come with four different connection technologies to choose from. The spring clamp connection is characterized by high functional reliability and reduced installation times. In this technology, the conductor is inserted into the spring clamp without a ferrule (optionally with a ferrule). The connection between the conductor and the spring clamp is vibration-resistant and stable over time.
