PROVERTHA 360° EMI/RFI M12 Crimp Connector

By News Release | November 10, 2015

The PROVERTHA 360° EMI/RFI M12 crimp connector for reliable field assembly provides fail-safe Drive-Cliq connection and secure data transmission.

PROVERTHA introduced its new 360° EMI/RFI M12 crimp connector for reliable field assembly of Drive-Cliq systems with an IP67 protection rating (screw-locked). The new M12 cable connectors meet IEC 61076-2-101 specifications and provide fail-safe Drive-Cliq connection and secure data transmission. This is achieved with secure contact of the signal wires due to turned crimp contacts and the safe cable shield contact with a compact full-metal housing. Additionally, the 360° EMI/RFI crimp flange system provides a vibration-resistant cable strain relief. The waterproof housing design ensures protection level IP67 in screw-locked condition as well as high robustness in rough environments.

Drive-Cliq is the Ethernet-based system interface of the Sinamics S120 modular drives that transmits parameter and control data between the related drive components, including the connection to motors and actuators. In addition to the Drive-Cliq assembly, the new M12 cable connectors from PROVERTHA also support the termination to the VARAN (Versatile Automation Random Access Network) Bus.

The new eight-pin M12 cable connectors from PROVERTHA have very compact dimensions (53.2mm at a diameter of 16mm) for restricted assembly conditions. The insulators with A coding meet requirements for the Drive-Cliq connection. The wire size is specified with AWG 26 for four signal crimp contacts and AWG 22 for power crimp contacts (2x). The new M12 cable connectors enable a reliable, quick, and simple assembly by means of crimp snap-in contacts and pre-assembled housing with only a few parts. The contact holder ensures a fail-safe wire termination. The ergonomic grip shell is built on TPE. PROVERTHA also provides crimp tools for signal contacts and crimp sleeves as accessories.

In addition, PROVERTHA provides the suitable M12 Drive-Cliq receptacle for the device interface as well as assembled M12-M12 or M12-RJ45 Drive-Cliq connectors.
