E11252 ifm Angled M12 Wirable Socket SDOAH040VASFKPG

E11252 Angled M12 Wirable Socket by ifm

The E11252 from ifm is a space-saving angled M12 socket. It belongs to the E wirable socket series, and the order code is SDOAH040VASFKPG. This part suits tight machine areas. Moreover, it uses screw terminals for fast field wiring. A stainless steel locking nut holds the connection firm, while gold-plated contacts keep the signal stable. The body is free from silicone. Therefore, it works well in paint and coating zones.

Installation Guide

• First, check the cable sheath size. Use 6…8 mm cable only.
• Then strip the wires to fit the screw terminals.
• Also keep wire size at or below 0.75 mm².
• Next, open the angled body and feed the cable through.
• After that, fix each wire in its screw terminal and tighten with care.
• Then close the body and seal the cable entry well.
• Now plug the M12 socket into the mating port.
• Finally, turn the 316L stainless steel nut by hand. Do not over-tighten.
• Use the angled shape to save space in tight spots.
• Also keep the connection dry and clean to hold IP 67.

Setup and Maintenance

• Screw terminals allow quick rework in the field.
• Moreover, no special tool is needed for wiring.
• Check the nut and terminals at each service stop.
• Also look for loose wires or a damaged sheath.
• Then clean the contacts with care. Avoid harsh solvents.
• Replace the part if the body cracks or the seal fails.

Compatibility Notes

• Fits standard M12 A-coded male ports.
• Also works with 4-wire sensor and actuator lines.
• Safe for low-voltage AC and DC circuits in the stated range.
• Moreover, the PA body and stainless steel nut resist common machine oils.
• However, do not exceed 4 A total load at 40 °C.

FAQ

Q: What wire size fits the terminals?
A: The screw terminals take wires up to 0.75 mm². Also, a cable sheath of 6…8 mm fits the body.

Q: Can I use this socket outdoors?
A: The IP 67 rating supports wet and dusty areas. Still, keep the plug dry and clean. A damaged seal will let water in.

Q: Why is no protection class listed?
A: ifm does not publish a protection class for E11252. Therefore, plan the circuit with that in mind. Ask ifm for a written statement if your panel needs one.

Q: How much current can it carry?
A: The total load is 4 A at up to 40 °C. Above that, heat can build up. So keep the load below this limit.

Q: What do field techs say about wiring it?
A: Most users like the screw terminals for quick fixes. The angled shape helps where a straight plug will not fit. Also, tighten the nut by hand. Over-tightening can harm the thread.

Q: Does the stainless steel nut help in washdown areas?
A: Yes. The 316L / 1.4404 nut resists rust better than coated parts. As a result, it helps in food and chemical plants. Check the seal at each washdown cycle.

Q: What happens if the cable is too thin?
A: A sheath below 6 mm may not seal well. That can break the IP 67 rating. Therefore, use a cable in the stated range, or add a suitable gland.

Q: Is it safe near paint lines?
A: Yes. The part is silicone free. Consequently, it prevents paint defects from silicone bloom.

Q: How do I know it is a real ifm part?
A: Check the order code SDOAH040VASFKPG on the label. Also check the ifm page for E11252.

Q: How should I store spares?
A: ifm does not publish a storage temperature. However, keep parts in a dry place at normal room temperature. Keep them in the sealed bag until use.
