M8x1/M12x1
Insulation bodies/Housings SMT/THR

For maximum flexibility in device development CONEC offers a comprehensive range of connectors of various sizes and contact layouts for automatic production processes.
The advantages of THR (Through-Hole-Reflow-Technology) and SMT (Surface-Mounting-Technology) assembly are that the connection technology can be integrated into the SMT process and thus the efficiency in device production in the electronics sector can be increased. Production costs of the devices can be reduced by the use of fully automatic equippable connection elements. While SMT technology is suitable for applications exposed to medium electromechanical loads, products with THR connection are particularly suitable when higher forces can act on electromechanical PCB components.
In addition to the A- and B-coded 4-, 5- and 8-pole variants in shielded and unshielded versions as plugs and couplings, the M12x1 portfolio also includes the X-coded coupling variant for high-speed data transmission of up to 10 GBit/s in industrial environments. L-coded, axial THR insulation bodies offer a compact, powerful solution for supplying power to automation devices.
Connector technology
The connectors are always supplied with a foil or cap for pick and place application and, upon request, in tape and reel packaging. In addition, corresponding protective caps are available for the M12 L-coded connectors.
The axial M12 L-coded connectors require approx. 50 percent less installation space compared to a 7/8" connector. Due to the high current carrying capacity of up to 16 A, they are also able to ensure the power supply of devices through a miniaturised interface. In addition to the M12x1 series, CONEC has developed the even more compact M8x1 connector series for SMT and THR assembly.
The A- and B-coding for signal transmission have now been supplemented by D-coding for industrial Ethernet transmission (100 Mbps) and P-coding for the EtherCAT P transmission protocol.

Insulating body
with modular construction

The insulating bodies meet the special requirements of the market, because they are: two-piece parts (insulation-body and flange housing without fixed mechanical connection), modular in construction, available in both SMT and THR technology (L-coding only THR), suitable for both front and back panel mounting, and they are available for different installation heights.
This allows the user, for example, to mount the flange housing from the front or rear of his device. Subsequently, the board equipped with the insulation-body can be mounted from the inside (combined assembly). In addition, the connectors are ideal for integrative designs where the M8 thread is shaped to the customer housing. This creates maximum design freedom. By default, the protection class in mounted condition is IP67, the degree of protection of the mating-face in unmated condition is IP20.
