HARTING Vertical Circular Connector Adapter 8 M12 Female 8 M12 Female

HARTING Harspeed Series Circular Connector Adapter, 60V Voltage, 500mA Current - 21033816815

This circular connector adapter provides a female-to-female M12 feed-through designed for industrial data and signal connections. It supports high-speed transmission and is intended for harsh environments where waterproof protection and a wide operating temperature range are required. The adapter employs screw locking and is suitable for vertical panel-mounted installations.

Features and Benefits:

• IP65/IP67 protection preserves connections in wet environments
  Cat.6A Class EA performance enables up to 500MHz data transfer
  0.5A current rating supports low-power signal applications
  Au-over-Ni contacts resist corrosion for extended mating cycles
  Liquid crystal polymer insert ensures dimensional stability at temperature

Applications

• Suitable for industrial Ethernet and Profinet link extensions
  Ideal for panel feed-throughs in machinery enclosures
  Used for joining M12 sensor and actuator cabling
  Can be used for outdoor junction points requiring IP67
  Suitable for factory automation vertical mounting situations

What contact material is used and why is it important?

Contacts are MADE from a copper alloy with gold-over-nickel plating to maintain low contact resistance and resist corrosive atmospheres.

What mechanical durability can I expect from mating cycles?

The connector is specified for at least 100 mating cycles to ensure repeated assembly and maintenance.

Which temperature range can the connector operate within?

It is rated for operation from -40°C to +85°C to accommodate cold-start and elevated-temperature industrial environments.

What approvals support use in regulated installations?

The accessory carries CSA and UL approvals and meets IEC 61076-2-109 specifications for M12 interconnects.
