Overview

Mencom MIN Size III (1-1/8") 10-pole female straight receptacle, SKU MIN-10FR-3-18-BM-SS, delivers reliable plug-and-play connectivity for industrial control systems, sensors, and automation networks. This back-mount stainless steel receptacle is rated for 4 Amps continuous current and features a .5-NPT conduit connection for secure panel mounting in harsh environments. The 3-foot 18 AWG cable provides flexible integration with control panels or junction boxes, while the female straight configuration ensures compatibility with Mencom MIN series plugs and field-wired connectors. Designed for durability, this receptacle’s stainless steel construction resists corrosion, vibration, and extreme temperatures, making it ideal for factory automation, robotics, material handling, and process control applications. The MIN Size III form factor (1-1/8" diameter) allows installation in compact enclosures or DIN rail systems. Mencom’s US manufacturing ensures consistent quality and traceability, with options for custom cable jackets (PVC, PUR, or TPE) and connector ends to match specific operational requirements. Key specifications include 10 poles for multi-signal applications, a 4A current rating per contact, and a back-mount design for flush-panel installation. The .5-NPT conduit connection provides strain relief and environmental sealing, while the female straight design simplifies mating with pre-terminated cables or field-wired plugs. This receptacle is part of Mencom’s MIN series, which supports 9, 10, 12, or 19 contacts for scalable system designs. Compatible with Mencom’s molded cable assemblies and field-wired connectors, this receptacle enables quick system reconfiguration or expansion without rewiring. The 18 AWG conductors handle low-power signals or power-limited circuits, and the stainless steel housing meets NEMA 4X/IP66 environmental ratings when properly installed. For applications requiring UL or CE certification, Mencom offers compliant variants with documented traceability.
