Overview

The Mencom Corporation MIN-5MR-.5-22-M20 is a 5-pole front mount male receptacle from the MIN Size I series, designed for reliable industrial connectivity in compact spaces. This model features a 0.5-foot cable with 22 AWG wire gauge, rated for 4 Amps at 300V, making it suitable for low-power signal and control applications. The male straight connector ensures straightforward plug-and-play installation, while the M20 x 1.5 metric thread provides secure mounting in enclosures and panels. The receptacle’s clear anodized aluminum shell offers corrosion resistance and durability, with an operating temperature range of -40°C to +105°C (-40°F to +221°F). The insulator is constructed from 105°C oil-resistant yellow PVC, and the contacts are copper alloy with gold plating for reliable conductivity. An NBR O-ring ensures environmental sealing, while the nickel-plated brass jam nut provides additional protection against moisture and contaminants. The IP69 rating confirms resistance to high-pressure water jets and steam cleaning, ideal for washdown environments. The 5-pole configuration follows North American color coding: 1) White, 2) Red, 3) Green/Yellow, 4) Orange, 5) Black. This standardized wiring scheme simplifies integration with existing systems, reducing installation time and potential errors. The front mount design allows for flush installation in control panels, optimizing space utilization in tight enclosures. Common applications include industrial automation, machinery control panels, sensor interfaces, and low-power motor starters. The 22 AWG wire gauge is optimized for the 4A rating, ensuring safe current transfer without excessive heat generation. The compact 7/8" (22.2 mm) size fits standard MIN series enclosures, making it a versatile choice for retrofits or new installations. For applications requiring longer cable lengths, Mencom offers custom lead options—consult the factory for part numbers. The MIN-5MR-.5-22-M20 is part of Mencom’s MIN series, a trusted line of industrial connectors known for precision engineering and long-term reliability.
