METZ CONNECT

METZ CONNECT is a German manufacturer of industrial connectivity components, with a product portfolio spanning voice and data connectors, sensor cables, relays, and fiber optic interfaces. The company is known for its M12 and RJ45 cordsets, keystone housings, and DIN-rail mounted relays, all designed for use in automation, process control, and networking environments. Products are built to IP ratings ranging from IPX5 to IPX8, with cable jackets in PUR for twisting applications and materials such as metal and plastic for housings. The range includes single-ended and double-ended cordsets, protective caps, wall outlets, and fiber optic adapters, supporting applications from sensor connectivity to industrial Ethernet (PROFINET). 3G Electric supplies METZ CONNECT components globally, offering multiple SKUs across these families, with logistics support for procurement specialists and plant engineers. The brand's focus on standardized interfaces (M12, RJ45, SC, LC-D) and environmental sealing makes it relevant for harsh industrial settings where dust, moisture, and mechanical stress are factors. Technical specifications such as wire size (22 AWG/42 AWG), pin counts (4 or 5 pins), and delay functions (off delay, 0.15 sec to 10 hr) are documented per SKU, allowing buyers to match components to system requirements without ambiguity.

Common Applications

  • Automation sensor networks — METZ CONNECT M12 sensor cables (e.g., SKU 802LG9) for connecting proximity sensors in twisting applications
  • Industrial Ethernet — METZ CONNECT Cat5/PROFINET M12 data cordsets (e.g., SKU 821ZJ0) for real-time control networks
  • Structured cabling — METZ CONNECT keystone housings (e.g., SKU 802L44) for surface-mount voice and data outlets in plant offices
  • Fiber optic backbones — METZ CONNECT OpDAT Industry LC-D adapters (e.g., SKU 821ZM9) for device-side fiber connections in harsh environments
  • Timing control panels — METZ CONNECT DIN-rail relays (e.g., SKU 821ZJ5) for off-delay timing in motor or conveyor systems
  • Outdoor or washdown zones — METZ CONNECT IP67 protective caps (e.g., SKU 821ZL3) for sealing unused V5 bulkhead connectors

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about METZ CONNECT from 3G Electric.

What IP ratings are available on METZ CONNECT M12 cordsets?

METZ CONNECT M12 cordsets are available with IP ratings including IPX5, IP6X, and IPX8, depending on the specific model. For example, the double-ended sensor cable (SKU 802LG9) is rated IPX5, while the single-ended data cordset (SKU 821ZJ0) is rated IPX8. These ratings indicate protection against water jets and temporary immersion, suitable for wet or washdown environments. Always verify the IP rating on the datasheet for the exact SKU.

Does METZ CONNECT offer fiber optic connectors for industrial use?

Yes, METZ CONNECT provides fiber optic connectors and couplers for industrial applications, such as the OpDAT Industry LC-D MM Adapter Insert (SKU 821ZM9) with IP65 rating and screw mounting. They also offer plug inserts like the SC multifiber data insert (SKU 821ZN1) with IP67 protection. These components are designed for device-side connectivity in industrial internet and automation networks.

What is the difference between single-ended and double-ended METZ CONNECT sensor cables?

Single-ended sensor cables (e.g., SKU 802LF5) have a connector on one end and bare wire on the other, allowing direct termination to a device or panel. Double-ended cordsets (e.g., SKU 802LG9) have connectors on both ends, enabling quick connection between two M12 ports. Both types use PUR jackets for twisting applications and are available in various lengths and pin configurations.

Can METZ CONNECT keystone housings be used for voice and data applications?

Yes, METZ CONNECT keystone housings, such as the surface-mount wall outlet (SKU 802L44), are designed for voice and data applications. They are unequipped, meaning they accept standard keystone jacks for RJ45 or other modules. The housing supports two ports with a 180° mounting angle and is suitable for surface mounting in structured cabling systems.

What is the delay range on METZ CONNECT DIN-rail mounted relays?

The METZ CONNECT DIN-rail mounted relay (SKU 821ZJ5) offers an off-delay function with a range of 0.15 seconds to 10 hours. It operates on a coil voltage of 230V AC/24 V AC/DC and an input voltage of 230V AC. This makes it suitable for timing control in industrial automation circuits where delayed shutdown is required.

Does 3G Electric supply METZ CONNECT products?

Yes — 3G Electric (S) Pte. Ltd. supplies METZ CONNECT products. We stock the METZ CONNECT catalog and supply genuine factory-original products with full manufacturer warranty and technical support.
