The unthreaded locking mechanism of the M12 PushPull allows quick and secure mating without the use of additional tools and indicates correct assembly with a clearly audible click. The connection thereby retains its robustness and vibration resistance also under demanding application conditions.
However, this innovative locking system requires an M12 compatible flange on the device side, which has prevented the use of the PushPull system in existing applications until now. The newly developed adapter has a thread on one side which can be screwed into the standard M12 flange. The other side of the adapter features a flange suitable for the M12 PushPull locking mechanism. This adapter allows PushPull functionality to be retrofitted to devices with a standard M12 flange. Users profit from the benefits of the innovative locking system in existing applications.
