Introduction and application of M12 circular connectors

The M12 circular connectors also feature a metal housing, which provides excellent anti-interference performance and durability. Its seal design effectively prevents water and dust from entering the connector, providing reliable waterproof and dustproof performance. The M12 circular connectors are also suitable for applications in high-temperature and high-pressure environments, with excellent high-temperature performance.

 

The M12 circular connectors are widely used in industrial automation, mechanical manufacturing, transportation, power equipment and other fields. In the field of industrial automation, the M12 circular connectors can be used to connect sensors, actuators, machine vision systems and other equipment, enabling data transmission and control between devices. In the field of transportation, the M12 circular connectors can be used to connect car electronic devices, ensuring the reliable operation of vehicle systems.
The M12 circular connectors have high reliability, providing stable signal transmission and power connection. The plug-in connection method is highly reliable and can withstand frequent plug-in and unplug operations without damage. The M12 circular connectors also have anti-vibration performance, ensuring stable connection in vibration environments.
The M12 connector is the most widely used connector in industrial automation equipment, with several common internal structures and coding methods. These connectors have the same diameter of 12mm and a thread pitch of 1mm, but their internal structures and uses vary greatly. Let’s take a look at the different structures and uses of M12 connectors.


A coding is mainly used for connecting direct current, standard 24VDC and standard sensor signal interfaces, and is also used for CANopen, DeviceNet, and CC-Link fieldbus.
B coding is mainly used for connecting direct current signal, such as Profibus and Interbus fieldbus.
D coding is used for connecting Ethernet, Profinet, and CC-Link IE fieldbus.

In addition, there are C coding specifications for M12 connectors, which are used less often, mainly for connecting alternating current, standard 24V/110V/230V AC.
There are also 8-pin specifications for M12 connectors, mainly used in special sensors or splitter boxes for multi-signal devices.
This is an introduction to the types and uses of M12 connectors in various specifications.
