Murr T-Coupler Slim M12 male 5-pole / 2x M8 female

Product Overview

This M12 to M8 SlimLine T-coupler adapter (SKU: 7000-41231-0000000) features one male M12 straight connector branching to two female M8 straight connectors, all with A-coding for reliable signal distribution between different connector sizes in space-constrained industrial automation applications. The compact SlimLine design provides efficient connectivity for converting M12 systems to multiple M8 device connections with reduced footprint.

Connector Configuration:

• Input: M12, 4-pole, 0° straight, A-coded (male)
• Output: 2x M8, 3-pole, 0° straight, A-coded (female)
• Thread: M12 x 1mm (input), M8 x 1mm (outputs), self-securing
• Tightening torque: 0.6 Nm (M12), 0.4 Nm (M8)
• Protection: IP67 when inserted and tightened
• Housing: Impact-resistant plastic, SlimLine design

SlimLine T-Coupler Design:

• Configuration: One M12 input to two M8 outputs
• Topology: Point-to-multipoint distribution with size conversion and compact footprint
• Signal splitting: Parallel connection distribution to smaller connectors
• Space efficiency: SlimLine profile for tight installation spaces
