Product Overview
Murr Elektronik part number 7000-08325-0000000 is a straight (0°) male M8 circular sensor connector built for rapid field termination. Utilizing insulation displacement connection (IDC) technology, this 3-pole connector allows field technicians and panel builders to wire sensors or actuators without stripping individual conductors or using specialized crimp tooling.
Key Features
- MOSA M8 male 0° straight plug configuration
- 3-pole contact arrangement, A-coded
- Insulation displacement connection (IDC) field-wireable termination
- Accommodates conductor cross section 0.25 mm² to 0.50 mm²
- Outer cable jacket clamping range of 2.5 mm to 5.0 mm
- Threaded M8 x 1 mm locking mechanism with 0.4 Nm recommended torque
- IP65 and IP67 ingress protection rating when properly mated and torqued
- Polyamide housing construction, manufactured in Germany
Applications
- Replacing damaged M8 sensor pigtails directly on machine tooling without hauling soldering gear to the floor
- Wiring proximity switches, photo eyes, or pneumatic valve manifolds on industrial automation lines
- Building custom-length cable drops for robotics, CNC router retrofits, and maker motion control projects
Frequently Asked Questions
Does wiring this connector require a dedicated IDC crimper?
No. The MOSA IDC system terminates conductors by tightening the threaded rear body, which presses the insulation into the displacement contacts automatically.
What wire size does this connector accept?
It accepts individual conductor cross sections from 0.25 mm² to 0.50 mm² (approximately 24 to 20 AWG) with an overall outer cable diameter between 2.5 mm and 5.0 mm.
Why buy this individual piece instead of a full multi-pack?
When an automated cell goes down over a severed sensor cable, you need one exact connector in hand, not a bulk box sitting on backorder. You receive this specific, photographed unit without excess inventory costs. Flat-rate shipping is $8, orders over $28 ship free, and everything leaves our Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
Nothing beats the quiet satisfaction of cutting a damaged sensor line, threading this connector shut, and seeing the indicator LED pop right back on.
Shipping? $8 flat rate, free once your order passes $28 - and it leaves the Idaho warehouse the same or next business day.
