Hermetic M12 connectors
In2Connect’s existing wide range of IP67 and IP68 interconnect solutions for harsh
environments currently includes dsub, RJ45, USB 2.0, Dual LC Fibre Optic, SF12 Push-Pull metal, and SP13 – SP21 IP68 nylon threaded coupling circular connectors plus a wide range of M12 connectors very popular in
factory automation and food processing systems. They are trusted for their superior quality
glass to metal products.
These glass to metal hermetically sealed IP68 M12 male socket connectors are designed to exceed the mechanical and environmental requirements of IEC-61076-2-101 with fixed pin contacts, fused into a glass dielectric insert. Hermetically sealed M12 connectors from In2Connect are available as receptacles with eyelet, solder bucket and/or PCB contacts.
Based on the M12 threaded connector range, the new connectors have been designed and manufactured to meet
customers’ stringent individual requirements for environmental, mechanical and mounting conditions. Hermetic
M12 connectors from In2Connect are designed to exceed IP68 in an unmated state. These connectors have a
wide variety of applications and can be found in most industry sectors, such as transport and instrumentation,
for use with proximity switches, sensors and interconnection in harsh environmental conditions. Standard
Hermetic connectors are sealed by fusing a single piece glass insert into a machined Stainless Steel Shell. The
pin contacts are permanently fused into the insert. To maintain thermal compatibility with the glass insert, the
contacts are manufactured from a nickel alloy. The protective plating on the pin contacts is electro-deposited
gold over nickel.
The Jam Nut is supplied with a fluorosilicone rubber O-ring for panel sealing. All In2Connect M12 connectors
and M12 hermetic connectors are RoHS compliant. The standard hermetic M12 connector is not designed as a
pressure resistant connector even though the inserts are capable of withstanding high pressure differentials. For
specific pressure critical applications please call us.
