Why Choose the ABB 2TLA020055R0300 M12-3D Y-Connector?
The ABB 2TLA020055R0300 is an M12-3D M12 Y-connector designed to simplify the connection of safety light guards with separate transmitter and receiver units. Part of the ABB safety accessory range, it combines the transmitter and receiver connections into a single M12 connection path towards the safety control unit, helping simplify machine-safety wiring.
The M12-3D incorporates three dedicated M12 interfaces: an M12 8-pole female connector for the light guard receiver, an M12 5-pole female connector for the transmitter and an M12 8-pole male connector for cabling to the safety control unit. This purpose-designed arrangement reduces wiring complexity when installing compatible ABB safety light curtains and light grids.
Designed for industrial safety applications, the 2TLA020055R0300 has a rated voltage of 24 V and provides IP67 protection when mounted. The screened Y-adapter construction makes it a practical connection accessory for safety systems where robust M12 connectivity and straightforward transmitter/receiver wiring are required.

Simplified M12 Connections for Safety Light Guards
Safety light curtains and light grids commonly use separate transmitter and receiver units, each requiring the appropriate electrical connection. A dedicated Y-connector can simplify the installation by providing correctly configured interfaces for both devices while consolidating the wiring towards the safety control system.
The ABB M12-3D is specifically configured for this purpose. Its 8-pole receiver connection, 5-pole transmitter connection and 8-pole safety-control connection provide a compact wiring solution for compatible ABB light guards. This arrangement can reduce installation complexity while maintaining robust M12 connectivity throughout the machine-safety system.
Typical Applications
- ABB safety light curtain installations.
- ABB safety light grid installations.
- Light guards with separate transmitter and receiver units.
- Industrial machinery access protection.
- Automated production and assembly cells.
- Robot and automation safeguarding systems.
- Packaging and processing machinery.
- Machine-safety systems using M12-connected safety control equipment.
