Belden Introduces Lumberg Automation M12 Push-Pull Connectors

Belden, a leading global provider of network infrastructure and digitization solutions, has unveiled its newest innovation: the Lumberg Automation M12 Inner Push Pull Connector Solution. These connectors comply with the International Electrotechnical (IEC) standard 61076-2-010 and are engineered to provide a secure, quick-locking connection. This makes them ideal for challenging environments where accidental disconnections could result in downtime, data loss, or safety issues.

How Push-Pull Technology Works

Push-pull technology simplifies the process of connecting and disconnecting electronic devices, making it more user-friendly. These connectors feature a mechanism that allows users to establish or terminate a connection by simply pushing or pulling the connector, eliminating the need for twisting or screwing, which is common with traditional connectors.

Compatibility with Screw Technology

The M12 Push-Pull Standard IEC 61076-2-010 is being widely adopted across the connectivity industry, ensuring cross-manufacturer compatibility. This means that the new push-pull sockets are compatible with traditional M12 screw-type connectors. As a result, you can integrate the new push-pull connectors into existing systems without needing to replace all your current screw-type connectors. This compatibility ensures a smoother and more cost-effective transition by optimizing the total cost of ownership.

Benefits of Push-Pull Technology

• Ease of Installation: Push-pull connectors significantly reduce installation time by up to 80%, as they do not require screwing in. This makes both installation & maintenance much simpler & quicker.
• Reliability: These connectors provide a secure connection that is highly resistant to vibration and accidental disconnection, ensuring consistent performance.
• Durability: With exceptional ingress protection and vibration resistance, push-pull connectors are well-suited for harsh environments, such as those found in transportation and industrial settings.
• Versatility: They are ideal for applications where quick and reliable connections are crucial, including industrial automation and transportation sectors.

The Lumberg Automation PP12M & RP12M M12 Push Pull Series are designed to excel in demanding environments. Their innovative design prevents external intrusion, ensuring secure connections that save installation time and protect against accidental disconnects. This high level of protection is crucial for maintaining maximum uptime and operational continuity.
