M12 4-Pin Male to Female Cable by Solnique Waterproof Extension

Description

Product Overview

The Solnique M12 4-Pin male to female connector cable is engineered for demanding industrial and scientific applications where signal integrity, durability, and environmental resistance are paramount. Constructed with a robust polymer jacket and IP67‑rated sealing, the cable withstands water immersion, dust ingress, and mechanical vibration, ensuring uninterrupted operation in harsh factory floors, outdoor automation stations, and robotic cells. Gold‑plated copper pins provide superior conductivity and corrosion resistance, supporting up to 1,000 mating cycles without performance loss. The screw‑thread locking mechanism secures the connection, preventing accidental disengagement during high‑vibration activities. Available in a comprehensive range of lengths—from 1 m to 30 m—and in four pin configurations (4‑, 5‑, 8‑, and 12‑pin), the cable adapts to diverse signal routing requirements, from short‑range sensor loops to long‑distance fieldbus networks. Each unit undergoes rigorous pin‑to‑pin continuity testing, guaranteeing flawless electrical pathways before shipment.

Usage

Designed for versatility, this M12 connector cable excels in a multitude of automation scenarios. In robotic arms, the cable transmits precise position feedback and safety signals between encoders and controllers, while its waterproof rating protects against coolant splashes and oil mist. In manufacturing equipment, it links proximity sensors, flow meters, and temperature probes to PLCs, delivering reliable data even in dusty or humid environments. The cable’s flexible construction enables easy routing through cable trays, conduit, and tight spaces, reducing installation time and minimizing strain on connectors. Whether used in conveyor monitoring systems, CNC machine tool networks, or outdoor weather stations, the cable’s secure screw‑lock and IP67 protection ensure long‑term reliability, reducing downtime and maintenance costs.

FAQ

What does the IP67 rating mean for this cable?

IP67 indicates that the cable is completely protected against dust ingress and can be submerged in water up to 1 meter deep for 30 minutes without any functional degradation. This makes the cable suitable for outdoor installations, wash‑down environments, and areas where moisture or splashing is common.

Can I use this cable with 3‑wire sensor signals?

Yes. The M12 connector series supports a variety of signal types, including 3‑wire analog and digital signals. Choose the appropriate pin configuration (4‑, 5‑, 8‑, or 12‑pin) that matches your sensor’s wiring scheme, and the gold‑plated contacts will maintain signal integrity across the connection.

How many mating cycles can the contacts endure?

The gold‑plated contacts are rated for up to 1,000 mating cycles. This durability ensures that the cable can be installed, removed, and re‑installed multiple times during maintenance or system upgrades without compromising performance.

Is a 90° elbow connector available?

Yes. While the standard cable includes a straight head type, a 90° elbow connector can be supplied on request to accommodate tight routing spaces or panel mounting requirements. Contact our technical support team for availability and pricing.

What warranty does Solnique provide for this cable?

Solnique offers a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects and premature failure of the cable’s conductive elements. Should any issue arise within the warranty period, we will replace the product or provide a refund after verification of the defect.
