Molex Molex Brad Passive-Signal and Safety MPIS Boxes

Molex Brad Passive-Signal and Safety Multi-Port Interconnection System (MPIS) Boxes feature high-performance Weld-Slag and Oil-Resistant (WSOR) home-run cables and achieve quick, easy, and reliable connections of high-density industrial signal I/Os. These MPIS boxes simplify wiring in harsh factory-automation environments and are designed to concentrate the sensor/actuator signals into one unique home run cable for a better mechanical infrastructure wiring on the machine. The rugged and pre-wired boxes feature M8 and M12 threaded connections for sensors/actuators.

The pre-wired IP67-sealed compact ruggedized MPIS boxes dual-wired M12 passive signal MPIS boxes save space by offering the possibility to connect 2 sensors per port; a 4-port M12 dual-wired box can connect 8 sensors without increasing the size of the housing. The total installation cost of a soft-wired MPIS box solution compared to hardwiring junction box offers an attractive and competitive price. Typical applications include baggage handling, postal sorting, light curtains, locking systems, and machine manufacturers.
