Phoenix Contact SACC-M12MS-5CON-PG 7-M M12 Straight Connector, 5-Pin, A-Coded

The Phoenix Contact SACC-M12MS-5CON-PG 7-M is a high-quality, field-attachable M12 straight connector engineered for robust signal and data transmission in industrial environments. This 5-pin, A-coded connector provides a reliable solution for custom cable assembly, allowing users to create connections tailored to specific length requirements directly on-site. Its durable construction ensures consistent performance even in demanding conditions.

Advantages

This connector offers exceptional flexibility for industrial installations by allowing for rapid, on-site assembly without the need for specialized factory-molded cables. The screw termination method ensures a secure and vibration-resistant electrical connection, while the robust design provides reliable protection against environmental factors. Its compatibility with a wide range of cable cross-sections makes it a versatile choice for various automation and sensor integration tasks.

Suitable for

• Industrial automation systems
• Sensor and actuator integration
• Custom cable assembly for field installations
• Machinery and equipment manufacturing
• Applications requiring secure, screw-terminated connections

This connector may not be suitable for applications requiring high-speed data transmission protocols that demand specific shielding or different coding standards, such as X-coded or D-coded interfaces. It is also not intended for use in environments exceeding its specified voltage or current ratings, nor is it suitable for applications where rapid, tool-free connection technology is preferred over traditional screw terminals.

• Coding: A-coded
• Termination method: Screw connection
• Cable diameter range: 4 mm to 6 mm
• Conductor cross-section: 0.25 mm² to 0.75 mm²
• Rated voltage: 60 V
• Rated current: 4 A
• Ingress protection: IP67
• Operating temperature range: -40 °C to +85 °C

How to use

To assemble the connector, strip the cable insulation to the appropriate length and insert the individual wires into the screw terminals according to the pin assignment. Ensure that the wires are securely fastened by tightening the screws. Slide the cable through the housing and tighten the PG 7 cable gland to ensure proper strain relief and environmental sealing. Finally, screw the connector housing together to complete the assembly.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that the cable diameter falls within the 4 mm to 6 mm range.
• Ensure the A-coding matches your existing equipment interface.
• Confirm that the screw termination method is compatible with your installation requirements.
• Check that the operating voltage and current do not exceed the specified limits.

Usage recommendations: Always ensure that the cable gland is tightened correctly to maintain the IP67 protection rating. Periodically inspect the screw terminals for tightness in high-vibration environments to ensure long-term reliability.
