Overview

The Mencom VAN-029-00 is a 3-pole Form A field wireable solenoid valve connector designed for direct industrial wiring applications. This connector features a 18mm interface with a PG9 opening for 6-8mm cables, rated for 250V AC/DC and 10A maximum current. Constructed from durable polyamide with silver-plated copper alloy contacts and a thermoplastic gasket, it delivers reliable performance across -40°C to 125°C operating temperatures. The black housing provides high visibility in industrial environments while maintaining IP65 ingress protection against dust and water. Field wireable design allows custom cable lengths and terminations, eliminating the need for pre-assembled cordsets. Compatible with standard 1/2" NPT conduit systems, it supports direct screw termination for secure, vibration-resistant connections. The VAN-029-00 is part of Mencom's Form A solenoid valve connector series, which includes variants with integrated LED indicators, flyback diodes, MOVs, and bridge rectifiers for enhanced circuit protection. Ideal for solenoid valve power and signal transmission in automation, process control, and industrial machinery applications where field termination flexibility is required.
