Overview

The Mencom Corporation DM8-M25 is an 8-pin female MINI-DIN to 8-pin female MINI-DIN port adapter designed for external mounting on industrial control panels. Housed in a durable M25 threaded metal shell (anodized aluminum standard, stainless steel or low-profile nickel-plated brass optional), this Panel Interface Connector (PIC) provides safe, code-compliant access to control panel components without opening the enclosure. The DM8-M25 mounts through a 1" diameter cutout and accommodates panels up to 10mm thick (4mm for low-profile version). A supplied NBR sealing cap with tether serves as both a protective cover and a gasket, ensuring IP69-rated washdown resistance. The connector is UL508A, UL50, and UL50E listed for Type 12 and Type 4 enclosures, meeting NFPA 70E safety standards. With a tightening torque of 6.7 N-m and operating temperature range from -40°C to +70°C, the DM8-M25 is ideal for PLCs, computers, and programmable devices in manufacturing, automation, and process control environments. Mencom offers over 2000 standard configurations and custom engineering for specialized requirements.
