Description
DIN Form B Industrial 11mm LED Connector 250VAC / 300VDC
Shako DIN Form B Industrial 11mm electrical connector with integrated LED indication, designed for solenoid valves and other industrial electromagnetic devices using the 11mm Form B connection.
The LED provides immediate visual confirmation that electrical power is present at the connector, making installation, commissioning and fault diagnosis easier.
The connector is rated for an operating current of 10A with a 16A maximum current, with the connector construction rated up to 250VAC / 300VDC. LED versions should be selected to suit the actual AC or DC operating voltage.
With a field-wireable design, 6–8mm cable capacity and high −40°C to +120°C operating temperature range, this is a particularly robust Form B connector for industrial solenoid valve applications.
Electrical Specification
Connector type: DIN Form B Industrial
Contact spacing: 11mm
Circuit: LED indicator
Maximum voltage: 250VAC / 300VDC
Operating current: 10A
Maximum current: 16A
Maximum conductor cross-section: 1.5mm²
Contact material: CuZn (Ag)
Insulation class: C-VDE0110
Operating temperature: −40°C to +120°C
LED Status Indication
The integrated LED provides a clear visual indication when electrical power is present at the solenoid connector.
This provides a useful diagnostic aid during:
✓ Machine commissioning
✓ Solenoid valve testing
✓ Electrical fault finding
✓ Routine maintenance
✓ PLC and control-system diagnostics
Unlike a no-circuit DIN connector, the LED circuit is voltage-dependent. The correct AC or DC LED version must therefore be selected for the application.
Field Wireable Connection
The connector is designed for field wiring with conductors up to 1.5mm².
This allows installers to select an appropriate cable length and conductor specification for the individual machine or installation.
Cable Entry
For the 11mm Form B connector, the Shako sheet specifies:
Cable diameter: 6–8mm
Cable entry: PG9 or optional 1/2″ NPTF.
Construction & Materials
Housing: PA + 30% GF
Contact holder / gland: PA + 30% FV / PA + 30% GF
Contacts: CuZn (Ag)
Maximum conductor: 1.5mm²
Contact spacing: 11mm
Operating temperature: −40°C to +120°C
Insulation class: C-VDE0110
The glass-fibre reinforced polyamide construction provides a robust connector body suitable for industrial solenoid valve applications.
11mm Industrial Form B Connection
This connector uses the 11mm Industrial Form B contact arrangement.
That distinction is important because our range now includes both:
Form B Industrial → 11mm pins
Form B Analogue → 10mm pins
They should not be selected solely on the description “Form B”; the contact spacing needs to match the coil.
Typical Applications
✓ Solenoid valves
✓ Pneumatic directional valves
✓ Hydraulic valves
✓ Process control valves
✓ Industrial automation
✓ PLC controlled equipment
✓ OEM machinery
✓ Packaging machinery
✓ Factory automation
✓ High-temperature industrial environments
Why Choose the Shako LED Connector?
The Shako Form B connector combines a robust industrial electrical connection with immediate visual supply indication.
Its 10A operating / 16A maximum current rating, 1.5mm² conductor capacity and unusually broad −40°C to +120°C temperature range make it particularly useful for demanding industrial applications.
The 11mm connection also provides compatibility with Industrial Form B solenoid coils, while the field-wireable construction allows cable length to be selected to suit the installation.
