ltem description from the seller
The M12 converter is a "universal adapter" or "translator" in the field of industrial connections. Its core function is to solve the problem of inability to connect between different devices, signals, and physical interfaces due to standard mismatch.
This is the most direct effect. The M12 connector has become one of the most mainstream connection standards in the field of industrial automation, especially for sensors and actuators, due to its thread locking and durability. But M12 itself has multiple types.
·Cable outgoing direction conversion: Convert straight outgoing lines to 90 degree angled outgoing lines to accommodate narrow installation spaces.
·Extension function: When the length of a standard M12 cable is insufficient, an M12 converter can be used as a relay to connect two sections of cable and achieve the purpose of extension.
·Conversion of different cable materials: In drag chain applications that require high flexibility, ordinary PVC cables can be connected to specialized high flexibility cables through converters.
·Avoid replacing equipment: When the interface of a newly purchased device does not match the existing control system, using a converter can avoid replacing expensive equipment or controller modules.
·Simplify inventory: Maintenance personnel do not need to prepare all types and lengths of M12 cables. They only need to prepare some standard cables and different types of converters to combine various solutions, greatly improving the flexibility of wiring and emergency response capabilities.
·Quick debugging and modification: During equipment modification or system upgrade, converters can serve as a temporary or permanent transition solution to accelerate the debugging process.
