Passive Junctions with an M8 Design

Turck is updating its passive junctions in a design with M8 connectors

Mülheim, May 30, 2018. Turck is completing its offering of multiple passive junctions with M8 connector variants. The fully encapsulated TB-4M8 and TB-8M8 comply with IP67 protection requirements and are ideal for applications with space restrictions. The fastening holes in the front and at the sides enable the customer to fit the junctions flexibly and suitably for the particular mounting requirement.

Turck's offering of compact passive junctions is in response to the growing use of M8 connection technology – particularly in special machine construction and other sectors in which space is restricted. The new product generation is similar after adaptions in design and construction to the already updated M12 junctions.

The M8 boxes are available as 4 and 8 connector variants with pluggable M8 connectors and metal threads. The customer can choose here between 3-pole and 4-pole designs. An M12 connector or a fixed cable connection can be selected for the main connection.
