The KA-0908 from K.A. Schmersal GmbH & Co. KG is a durable M12 connector with a straight coupling and 8-pin connection, designed for industrial applications. It provides a reliable solution for data and power transmission in demanding environments.

The KA-0908 features a 20-meter-long cable, offering flexibility for various machine and plant installations. The housing is made of black plastic, and the nut is made of nickel-plated metal (CuZn) to ensure stability and corrosion resistance. The cable is protected by a sturdy PVC sheath, safeguarding it against mechanical impact.

The electrical connection is made via a screw terminal M20 x 1.5, supporting a wire cross-section of 0.25 mm². The connector has a minimum mechanical lifespan of 100 mating cycles and is rated IP67, making it dust-tight and protected against temporary submersion.

With a rated operating voltage of 30 VDC and a contact load capacity of 2 A, the KA-0908 is ideal for industrial control systems. The gold-plated metal contacts (CuZn) provide high conductivity and corrosion resistance.

The connector is cULus-certified, making it suitable for international use. The pin assignment follows standard color coding to simplify installation.

This connector is perfect for use in automation technology, mechanical engineering, and industrial control systems, providing a secure and long-lasting connection.
