HARTING Circular Connector, 5 Contacts, Cable, M12 Connector, Socket, Male, IP65, IP67, Circular Connectors M12 Series

Harting Circular connectors M12 Series Circular Connector, 12A Current, 63V Voltage - 21032961505

This circular connector delivers a compact, straight cable-mounted Interface for signal and power in industrial installations. It is designed for five-contact connections and employs a coded mating face to prevent miskeying in multi-connector systems. The connector suits environments requiring sealed electrical joints and provides a robust contact system for routine wiring and field cabling.

Features & Benefits

• Five gold-plated copper contacts enable low-resistance connections
  L coding prevents incorrect mating in mixed connector arrays
  IDC termination simplifies Rapid cable assembly on site
  Die-cast zinc housing offers mechanical protection and durability
  Rated for 12 A current and 63V operation for mixed-signal circuits
  Withstands -40°C to 85°C for use in varied temperature conditions

**Applications**

• Suitable for sensor and actuator cabling in factory automation
  Ideal for machine tool connections requiring keyed mating
  Used with fieldbus nodes needing five contacts and power
  Can be used for mobile equipment wiring exposed to contaminants
  Suitable for control panels where straight cable entry is required

How does the connector maintain environmental sealing when installed?

The mating design and housing achieve ingress protection that meets both IP65 and IP67 criteria, preventing dust and allowing temporary immersion when correctly mated.

What mating orientation is required for correct engagement?

The connector uses an L-coded mating arrangement so plugs with the corresponding code align keying features for proper electrical contact.

What material treatments are applied to contact surfaces to improve performance?

Contacts are manufactured from copper and finished with a thin gold layer over nickel to enhance conductivity and resist surface corrosion.

Which mounting approach is intended for this product?

It is designed for cable mounting with a straight orientation to facilitate inline connections and cable routing in confined spaces.
