1240736

Overview

Phoenix Contact part number 1240736 is a contact insert belonging to the RC, CA, and NC series. It features an M23 interface with 12 positions. The connection type utilizes pins designed for solder cup termination. This component serves as a male connector insert intended for integration into circular connector assemblies.

Feature Summary

• Designed for robust industrial applications requiring reliable signal transmission
• Utilizes solder cup termination for secure electrical connections
• Constructed with specific pin configuration for defined positioning

Applications

• Industrial control cabinet wiring
• Sensor and actuator signal distribution
• Circular connector assembly integration

Procurement Notes

Verify that the target application requires an M23 interface with exactly twelve positions. Confirm that the system design supports solder cup termination methods rather than screw or spring clamp variants. Ensure compatibility with the corresponding housing components from the RC, CA, or NC series before finalizing procurement decisions.

Selection Notes

Select this insert when a male connector configuration with twelve signal paths is required. The solder cup termination method dictates the assembly process and tooling requirements. Consider the mechanical constraints of the M23 interface size and the electrical characteristics associated with the pin contacts when evaluating system performance.

Part Context

This component belongs to the Phoenix Contact RC series, which encompasses heavy-duty power and signal connectors. The RC series provides modular solutions for industrial automation environments. Part 1240736 specifically addresses the need for multi-position signal connectivity within the M23 form factor standard.

Replacement Considerations

Public confirmed substitute part numbers are not available in the provided documentation. Verify cross-compatibility with other Phoenix Contact M23 inserts only through official manufacturer datasheets.
