Phoenix Contact: Tool-Free Wiring of M12 Power Connectors

April 20, 2020

The M12 POWER connectors with Push-Lock connection from Phoenix Contact allow you to make conductor connections in AC and DC applications up to 16 A and 690 V easily and without tools for the first time.

Here, the clamping chambers of the connector for assembly are opened and closed easily using a lever. You therefore have both hands free to insert the conductors, and installation is simplified significantly. The color and numerical codings in the connection area ensure intuitive assignment of the individual conductors. The long-term durable, vibration-resistant PE connection to all metal components provides protection against electric shock. The optional 360° shielding ensures the reliable operation of your system in environments that are subject to high levels of electromagnetic interference. The metal housings are reliably sealed up to IP65/IP67 degree of protection and allow you to install them in demanding industries or special applications.
