Frequently Asked Questions
What are the recommended panel cut-out dimensions and maximum panel thickness for this M8 male right-angle plug?
The connector requires a D-shaped anti-rotation panel cut-out with a diameter of 8.1mm (+0.1/-0mm) and a flat side width of 7.2mm (+0.1/-0mm). It supports a maximum enclosure panel thickness of 3.0mm and is secured using an SW7.1 nut on its M8x1.0 thread.
How do the current and voltage ratings differ across the 3-pin to 8-pin M8 male configurations?
Per IEC 61076-2-104 specifications, the 3-pin (A-Code) and 4-pin (A-Code/D-Code) models utilize 1.0mm contacts rated at 4A and 60V DC. The 5-pin (B-Code) model uses 1.0mm contacts rated at 3A and 30V DC, while the 6-pin (0.7mm contacts) and 8-pin (0.6mm contacts) A-Code models are rated at 1.5A and 30V DC.
What materials and sealing mechanisms provide IP67 waterproof protection for this PCB-mount M8 plug?
The connector features a nickel-plated copper alloy shell, gold-plated copper alloy male pins, and a black PA insulator. Environmental sealing to IP67 in the locked state is achieved through a black NBR O-ring combined with black epoxy resin potting at the rear PCB pin interface.
What are the key PCB mounting dimensions and thermal ratings for assembly integration?
The right-angle solder pins have a horizontal centerline offset of 12.5mm, a vertical body-to-board profile height of 15.4mm, and a 3.0mm solder tail length. The assembly operates reliably from -40°C to +80°C and endures at least 500 mating cycles.
