Overview

The Mencom MAC-3MR-M16-18 is a front-mount receptacle designed for robust industrial connections. This 3-pole, male straight connector features an M16 interface and is constructed with a clear anodized aluminum housing for durability. It comes with a 1-foot cable assembly utilizing 18 AWG wire, rated for 4A operation. MAC connectors, also known as Micro-AC, utilize a 1/2-20UN2 coupling nut and a dual keyway system. These features, along with a distinct color code compared to MDC connectors, are strategically implemented to prevent wiring errors, even though they share a similar size profile with M12 connectors. Mencom offers these connectors in a plug-and-play format, including molded cable assemblies, field-wired options, panel mount receptacles, and various accessories. Customers can select from different cable jacket materials and connector end types to precisely match their application requirements. The US-manufactured MAC-3MR-M16-18 (SKU: MAC-3MR-M16-18) provides a reliable and error-resistant connection solution for industrial automation and control systems.
