Any IP-68 bulkheads under 15mm diam?
Any IP-68 bulkheads under 15mm diam?
(OP)
Hi,
I'm trying to put together an enclosure concept and running into trouble with connectors. I need to use a panel mount bulkhead with mating connector, and the best option within my limitations is to work with 6-contact locking push-pull circular connectors. I need to keep the bulkhead flange under 15mm in diameter. They also need to be IP-68 rated and use crimp-termination on the cable end. Hirose and Fischer make some in the $5+ region which is getting out of my price range.
Just tossing the question out there in case someone has dealt with similar connectors. Thanks,
Seth

Brad Harrison (now part of Molex) has a complete line of IP68 / NEMA 6P connectors that are M12 (12mm) or M8 (8mm) standards.

I agree - we had the same problem with Lemo in Europe.
