We are introducing a brand new M12×1 field-mounted connector that will feature the latest push-in connection technology.
Why create this product ?
Field-mounted connectors can be used in any flexible and unique connection scheme . Industrial-scale factory automation makes it possible to prepare every cable connection in advance . Field-mounted connectors are therefore indispensable whenever a simple connection scheme needs to be implemented .
Users can now rely on Turck's extensive product line to achieve a variety of field connection solutions . Screw wiring in connection technology is widely recognized and commonly used . Solder wiring is also a common product line.
Using traditional connection systems to date , users need special tools such as screwdrivers or soldering irons . However , customers are also generally looking for a simple , fault-tolerant technology that can quickly complete the connection.
Technical features and customer value
The new push-in connection technology, the field-wiring M12 connector, enables faster and more reliable manual assembly without the need for special tools — no more soldering irons or screwdrivers. Users simply insert a single wire with its insulation stripped at one end, or a wire with a metal lug (commonly known as a wire lug), into the corresponding contact hole and push the lever. The lever locks the wire into contact, ensuring reliable electrical contact. Once the first wire is securely connected, the entire cable's mechanical position is fixed, and subsequent wire insertion is straightforward. Overall, this approach simplifies the connection process compared to previous insulation-piercing connection techniques, which also require no special tools.
The new push-in technology is extremely user-friendly while meeting the highest quality standards. The introduction of color coding ensures correct pin assignment for individual wires in the field — even in challenging field installation environments. The mechanical locking system is very secure, and users can pull on each wire in the field to verify the connection's reliability. This field wiring method requires no special wiring experience or skills from the operator.
Summarize
- Fast and safe cable connection
- Manual assembly process that can be completed without special tools
- Thanks to the color-coded connection elements, wiring is reliable and error-free.
- Suitable for wires with or without metal sheaths.
