Turck BS81810 Male Connector

The TURCK BS81810 is an 8‑pin M12 A‑coded male field‑wireable connector designed for secure, on‑site termination of sensor and actuator cables in harsh industrial environments. It is a straight, cable‑mounted unit with screw/clamp termination and an M12×1 thread, compatible with 6.0–8.0 mm cables. The housing is polyamide (PA), with a nickel‑plated brass coupling nut and gold‑plated brass contacts, rated for 75 VAC / 60 VDC at 2 A, and it provides IP67 protection when mated, with an operating temperature range from −40°C to +85°C and an approximate weight of 23.4 g. Commonly used to connect proximity sensors, photoelectric sensors, encoders, and distributed I/O modules in packaging machinery, conveyors, robotics, and other manufacturing automation applications; common replacements include TURCK BS8141-0, BS7131-0, and BS5131-0.
