Overview

The Mencom DB25MCR Panel Interface Connector (PIC) is a 25-pin D-sub male crimp pin device designed for secure external access to control panels housing PLCs, computers, or programmable devices. This PIC mounts directly to the panel exterior, providing convenient pass-through connections without requiring door access, enhancing shop floor safety and compliance with NFPA 70E electrical safety standards. Key specifications include a 3A per connector and 8A per block rating at 300V, with copper alloy contacts featuring gold plating for reliable conductivity. The stainless steel plate and nickel-plated brass coupling nuts ensure durability, while the BUNA-N O-ring and closed-cell PVC/NBR gasket provide IP69-rated protection against harsh environments. The 25-pin D-sub male interface supports 10 integrated 5-pin female MDC receptacles, with pins 21-25 configurable via a 3-pin pluggable power connector for power applications. Custom options are available from Mencom’s engineering team for non-standard configurations. Ideal for industrial automation, robotics, and manufacturing environments where frequent access to internal systems is required without compromising panel integrity or safety.
