The 1424668 is a universal, 4-position, shielded M12 socket connector designed for field assembly. It utilizes a Push-lock spring connection method for tool-free termination of conductors ranging from 0.14 mm² to 0.75 mm² and accommodates external cable diameters from 4 mm to 8 mm. The connector is rated for a nominal voltage of 60 VDC (48 VAC) and a nominal current of 4 A. Constructed with a nickel-plated zinc die-cast knurl, it offers IP65/IP67 protection and operates reliably in temperatures from -40 °C to 85 °C. Its robust, shock- and vibration-resistant design with 360° shielding makes it suitable for demanding industrial applications requiring secure and reliable connections.
