Overview

Mencom MINP-6MPX-12 is a 6-pole MIN size I (7/8") cordset featuring a male straight connector with a 12-foot PUR cable jacket. Rated for 5.5A current, this cordset is designed for plug-and-play connectivity in industrial applications requiring 2-6 contacts. The MIN size I connector is compact yet robust, making it ideal for space-constrained installations where reliable signal or power transmission is critical. This cordset is part of Mencom’s MIN series, which offers flexibility in cable jackets (PUR, PVC, or TPE) and connector ends (straight or right-angle) to match specific environmental and application needs. The PUR jacket provides excellent abrasion resistance, flexibility in low temperatures, and resistance to oils, chemicals, and UV exposure, ensuring long-term durability in harsh industrial environments. Compatible with Mencom’s MIN size I panel mount receptacles and field-wired connectors, the MINP-6MPX-12 supports applications in automation, robotics, machine tools, and process control systems. Its 5.5A rating makes it suitable for low-power signal and control circuits, while the 6-pole configuration accommodates multiple signal paths in a single connection. The yellow color-coding aids in quick identification and reduces installation errors.

Frequently Asked Questions

What voltage and amperage ratings does this cordset support?

The cordset supports 300 Volt rating with 5.5 amps for 6-conductor models and 300 Volt with 6 and 1 amps for 14-conductor models.

What temperature range can this cordset operate in?

The PVC models operate from -40°C to +105°C, while the PUR models operate from -40°C to +80°C.

How can I get a stainless steel coupling nut?

To get a stainless steel coupling nut, add a '-SS' suffix to the standard part number (e.g., MIN-6MPX-3 becomes MIN-6MPX-3-SS).

What cable wire sizes are used in these cordsets?

The cordsets use 18 AWG wires for 6-conductor models and a combination of 18 AWG and 22 AWG wires for 14-conductor models.

What material options are available for these cordsets?

The cordsets are available in Yellow PVC and Yellow PUR (polyurethane) with different resistance properties. PUR models are oil and cutting fluid resistant and cut resistant.

What thread options are available for these cordsets?

For male threaded coupling, replace 'MPX' with 'MPMX' in the part number. Male threads are standard on European color code cordsets.

What cable length options are available?

Standard cable lengths are 3, 6, 12, 20, 30 & 50 feet for North American models, and 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 10 & 15 meters for European models. Custom lengths are available by consulting the factory.
