M12 connector system (shown in
Figures 7, 8, 9 and 10
), meets the most stringent protection requirements important
for the difficult environmental conditions of mobile hydraulics applications. Protection type IP69K makes the robust metal housing not only
completely dust and waterproof, even the harshest cleaning measures cannot damage the sensor.

MOUNTING THE CONNECTOR SYSTEM TO THE CYLINDER
Figure 7.
The MH sensor is delivered by MTS together with the new
connector system: The connector insert carrier is already connected
to the sensor electronics, i.e. no soldering, any color or connection
mistake.
Figure 8.
The connector insert is taken out of the cylinder through
a bore hole. The flange housing can be snapped into position easily
from outside.
