Overview

The Mencom GF-DB9-R-32 Panel Interface Connector (PIC) is a rugged, DIN-mountable device designed for safe external access to control panel electronics. This PIC integrates a GFCI-protected duplex outlet, a DB9 serial interface, and a 3A reset circuit within a 32mm housing, allowing technicians to interface with PLCs, computers, or other programmable devices without opening the control panel. By eliminating frequent door openings, the GF-DB9-R-32 enhances shop floor safety and compliance with NFPA 70E electrical safety standards. The DB9 port supports RS-232/RS-485 communication, while the GFCI outlet provides ground fault protection for connected tools or test equipment. Housed in a durable US-made enclosure, this PIC is ideal for industrial automation, robotics, and process control applications where reliable access and safety are critical. With over 2000 standard configurations available, Mencom ensures compatibility with most control panel layouts, or custom designs can be requested for unique requirements.
