1662285

What type of connector is this?

It is a straight, field-assembled M12 male sensor and actuator connector with five positions, A-coding and screw terminals. The Pg11-DUO cable gland allows two cables to enter the connector.

What is the purpose of the dual cable entry?

The dual cable entry enables two sensor cables to be connected through one compact M12 connector. This can simplify field wiring and reduce the space required for cable connections.

What voltage and current ratings does it have?

Phoenix Contact 1662285 is rated at 4 A at 40°C. Its standard operating ratings are 48 V AC and 60 V DC.

How many electrical positions are provided?

The connector has five positions arranged in the standard A-coded M12 configuration.

Which conductor sizes can be connected?

It accepts conductors from 0.25 mm² to 0.75 mm² without ferrules, 0.14 mm² to 0.75 mm² with ferrules, and 0.25 mm² to 0.75 mm² for solid conductors. The applicable AWG range depends on the conductor preparation.

What cable diameters are compatible?

Two sealing arrangements are included. The small seals accommodate two cables with outside diameters from 2.1 mm to 3 mm, while the large seals accommodate two cables from 4 mm to 5.2 mm.

What environmental protection does the connector provide?

When correctly assembled and mated, the connector provides IP67 protection against dust and temporary immersion in water.

What operating temperature range is specified?

The specified operating temperature range is from -40°C to 85°C.

How are the wires terminated?

The individual conductors are secured using screw terminals. This field-assembly method accepts wires both with and without ferrules.

What preparation is required for the cable?

The specified sheath stripping length is 20 mm, and each individual conductor should be stripped by 5 mm before termination.

Which connector standard does it follow?

The M12 interface conforms to IEC 61076-2-101 and uses standard A-coding.

What are its principal dimensions?

The connector has a housing diameter of 20 mm and an overall length of approximately 63 mm.

What materials are used in its construction?

The connector uses CuZn contacts with a CuSnZn contact surface, a polyamide contact carrier and grip body, a plastic knurl and NBR sealing components.

How many mating cycles is it designed to withstand?

The connector is specified for at least 100 insertion and withdrawal cycles when used under the stated operating conditions.

What torque values apply during assembly?

The M12 knurl requires 0.4 Nm, the screw terminals require 0.2 Nm, and the specified gland assembly torque is between 0.8 Nm and 1 Nm.

Where is this connector commonly used?

It is commonly used for field wiring of industrial sensors, actuators and related automation equipment where a compact five-position M12 connection and dual cable entry are required.
