Introduction
The industrially approved M12 connecting solutions are more and more considered on devices for the railway industry.
An often mentioned handicap is the contact application to the wires
and strands. Usually soldering or Insulation-displacement connections
(IDC) for field assembling is provided and used.
According to long term experiences crimped contact applications
offer best possible performances regarding endurance under vibrations.
The weight factor of components is a further criterion which is more
and more assessed for application engineering solutions and finally
for the application decision.
As humidity and moisture have to be considered for inside applications
the ingress protection (IP rating) of electrical and electronic
devices is a major concern of the product evaluation.
Gimota AG consistently adjusted the common industrial M12 connector
solution according to EN 61076-2-101 to the needs and
demand of railway applications and tested according EN 50155.
The GTM12 connector series by Gimota AG offers a variety of M12
cable plugs/receptacles and bulkheads which are also suitable for
field assembling.
