Overview

The Mencom Corporation VAG-120-3401 is a high-quality solenoid valve connector designed for reliable and efficient connections in industrial applications. This specific model features a Form A (18mm) DIN 43650 interface, connecting to a 4-pole M12 male straight plug with a 1-meter cable. Engineered for demanding environments, it operates at 24V AC/DC and is rated for 4A, ensuring robust performance. The integrated LED with Metal Oxide Varistor (MOV) surge protection provides visual status indication and safeguards connected equipment from voltage spikes, enhancing operational reliability and reducing downtime. The connector body is constructed from durable Polyamide, with Copper Alloy contacts featuring Silver Plating for optimal conductivity. The M12 connector boasts a Nickel Plated Brass coupling nut and Gold Plated Copper Alloy contacts, ensuring a secure and corrosion-resistant connection. With an IP65 rating, this cordset is protected against dust ingress and low-pressure water jets, making it suitable for washdown environments. The operating temperature range for the DIN connector is -25°C to 90°C (-13°F to 194°F), and for the M12 connector, it's -40°C to 80°C (-40°F to +176°F). This Mencom solenoid valve connector is manufactured in the USA, ensuring adherence to stringent quality standards. It is an ideal solution for pneumatic and hydraulic valve actuation systems where quick disconnect and reliable electrical interfacing are critical. The universal design facilitates easy installation for both new systems and maintenance, repair, and operations (MRO) scenarios. The VAG-120-3401 is part of Mencom's extensive line of solenoid valve connectors, offering various circuitry options including MOVs, Flyback Diodes, and Braided Rectifiers to meet diverse application needs.
