LP12 Miniature Aviation Plug and Socket — 5-hole, 8-pin, IP68, 3A A compact, rugged panel-mount connector designed for reliable signal and low-power connections in industrial environments. The mounting flange provides secure panel installation and stable mating while the LP12 form factor fits tight control panels and enclosures. Key benefits Space saving: small LP12 footprint lets you route multiple signals and power paths where panel space is limited. Reliable in harsh conditions: IP68 dust- and water-resistant rating maintains connectivity during washdowns and outdoor exposure. Stable connections: flange mounting and rugged construction reduce the risk of disconnection and downtime in demanding applications. Simplified wiring: 5-hole, 8-pin configuration consolidates multiple I/O and low-power lines into a single connector for cleaner panels and faster service. Appropriate power handling: 3A current rating supports sensors, small actuators and general I/O without overspecifying components. Features and performance Form factor: Compact LP12 design for tight control panels and enclosures. Contact configuration: 5-hole layout with 8 pins to support mixed signal and power routing. Environmental protection: IP68 rated to resist dust, water ingress and routine washdowns. Durability: Rugged construction engineered for repeated mating cycles in industrial use. Mounting: Flange mount for secure panel installation and stable mating under vibration or motion. Practical applications Automated assembly lines: Consolidate sensors, actuators and control I/O into a single, space-efficient connector to reduce panel clutter and speed maintenance. Machine tools and robotics: Provide a reliable field plug-in on shop floors where vibration and frequent connector cycles are common. Outdoor or washdown equipment: Maintain connection integrity on equipment exposed to moisture, cleaning procedures or harsh environmental conditions. Compatibility Part of the LP12 family. Use matching LP12 mating connectors with the same hole/pin configuration to ensure proper pairing and reliable operation.
