1543032

What type of connector is this?

The Phoenix Contact 1543032 is a straight, female M12 connector with five positions, A-coding, and SPEEDCON locking. It is designed for field assembly and uses screw terminals to connect individual conductors.

What applications is this connector designed for?

This connector is intended for sensor and actuator connections in industrial automation. Its field-assembly design allows compatible cables to be terminated on-site.

What are the electrical ratings?

The connector is rated for 4 A at an ambient temperature of 40°C. Its rated voltage is 48 V AC or 60 V DC.

What cable diameter does the connector accept?

The standard Pg7 cable gland accepts cables with an outside diameter of 4 to 6 mm. Cable selection should also account for the conductor sizes accepted by the screw terminals.

What conductor sizes can be connected?

The terminals accept conductor cross sections of 0.25 to 0.75 mm² without ferrules and 0.14 to 0.75 mm² with ferrules. Solid conductors are supported from 0.25 to 0.75 mm².

Does this connector require soldering?

No. Individual conductors are secured using screw terminals. The connector can be assembled with or without ferrules, provided the conductors fall within the specified cross-section range.

What is the operating temperature range?

The specified operating ambient temperature range is -40°C to 85°C for the plug/socket connection.

What ingress protection rating does the connector have?

The connector has an IP67 rating. Maintaining this protection requires correct assembly and appropriate cable fit. The manufacturer's instructions also call for observing cable bend limits and relieving mechanical loads upstream of the connector.

What are the connector's dimensions?

The Phoenix Contact 1543032 measures 54 mm in length and has a housing diameter of 20 mm. These dimensions help determine the space required for installation and cable routing.

What tightening torques are specified for assembly?

The specified tightening torque is 0.4 Nm for the M12 knurled coupling and 0.2 Nm for the screw terminals. The pressure screw requires 0.8 to 1 Nm. The plug insert should be screwed into the sleeve housing as far as it will go.

How much insulation should be stripped before wiring?

The specified stripping length is 20 mm for the cable's outer jacket and 5 mm for each individual wire.

What materials are used in the connector?

The connector uses a PBT grip body, a polyamide contact carrier, and a nickel-plated brass knurled coupling. The contacts are copper-zinc alloy with a copper-tin-zinc surface, and the sealing material is NBR.

How many mating cycles is the connector rated for?

The connector is specified for at least 100 insertion and withdrawal cycles.

What should be checked when selecting a mating connector?

Check for a compatible male M12 interface with A-coding and the appropriate five-position contact arrangement. Also confirm the application's wiring assignment and electrical requirements before connecting.
