Problem
It's difficult to keep track of locking torque values.
Locking is done with approxi-
mately 1/8th of a turn.
The Smartclick XS5 has the industry's
shortest locking rotation of 1/8th of a
turn. There's no need to keep
track of locking torque, and
this greatly reduces time
and effort when wiring.

The connection sometimes
vibrates loose.
A bayonet lock mechanism is used.
By using a bayonet mechanism, which is a common
locking method, the Smartclick XS5 eliminates any
concerns about loosening.

Solution
Problem
Click!
A simple twist is all it takes to connect the Smartclick XS5, making it an ideal next-generation M12
connector. It's also easy to introduce to existing facilities because it takes only 1/4 the time of
ordinary wiring processes, and it's compatible with conventional, screw-type connectors.
The simple, XS5 Connector is completely compatible with conventional
screw-type M12 connectors.

It's troublesome to screw the connectors together.
It's a twist-and-click connection.
Solution
Problem
An innovative new lock structure makes connection extremely simple. The lock
mechanism is internal, so it will no longer become jammed by sputtered fluids or
dust. Also, the use of a movable lock bolt makes it possible to connect the
Smartclick XS5 to a screw-type M12 connector.
All combinations are connectable.

Solution
Problem
to tell you it's connected.
A positive clicking feel tells you for sure that the
Connector is securely locked.
The connector solves the problems of previous screw-type connectors.

That Reduce Installation Work
■ A newly developed lock structure that maintains
compatibility with conventional, screw-type M12
connectors.
■ Simply insert the Connectors, then turn them
approximately 1/8 of a turn to lock.
■ A positive click indicates locking.
■ Features the same degree of protection (IP6 7) as
conventional, screw-type M12 connectors.
■ A full line-up of models is planned.
