M12 Field Wireable Connector Male Metal Shell Shielded
Connector Orientation
The choice of right angle or straight M12 Field Wireable Connector depends on the specific application requirements and installation environment. If space is limited or wiring along the surface of the machine or equipment is required, right angle connectors are the better choice. If a direct connection or easy installation is required, a straight connector is more suitable.
Connector Shell
Shell selection for M12 connectors can be evaluated based on specific application requirements and environmental conditions. If higher durability, interference immunity, or protection ratings are required, metal shells are a better choice. Whereas, in general industrial environments or indoor applications, plastic shell connectors can provide affordable and reliable performance.
Applications
M12 connectors have a wide range of applications in various fields, including industrial automation, machinery and equipment, robotics, process control, and sensor and actuator connections.
