M16 3 Pin Male Bulkhead Panel Mount Connector, Solder Type, Straight
Introduction
The M16 connector is designed for secure and stable electrical connections in industrial and automation applications. With a straight orientation and A-coded keying, this connector ensures accurate mating and prevents misalignment during installation. The 3-pin male contact configuration supports reliable signal and low-power transmission in control systems, sensors, and industrial equipment.
Engineered for panel mounting with a front-mount bulkhead design, this connector allows fast and convenient installation while maintaining mechanical stability. The solder-type termination provides strong contact retention and consistent electrical performance. Its copper alloy housing with nickel-plated finish delivers excellent resistance to corrosion, vibration, and mechanical stress in harsh operating environments.
Rated at 250V and 7A, this M16 connector meets IP67 protection requirements, offering effective sealing against dust and water ingress. Gold-plated CuZn contacts ensure low contact resistance and long-term conductivity. With an operating temperature range from -25°C to +85°C, it is well-suited for both indoor and outdoor industrial applications.
