The new model complements the existing P Series product range of pre-wired and impact-resistant beacons (IK08, IP67 & IP69).        ## PDMC5: Plug & Play  With its M12 5-pin connector, the new PDMC5 multifunction beacon enables a very easy, simple, and fast plug & play installation. Compared to the pre-wired P Series models, the installation effort for this specific model is significantly lower. The simple mounting with M12 connector prevents installation mistakes and the high degree of protection IP69 is maintained. The multifunction beacon with a diameter of 75mm combines the functions steady, flashing, strobe, and rotating light in just one product. All light patterns can be switched externally.   ### ![orange beacon with M12 plug](https://blog.auersignal.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PDMC5_Detailansicht-png-1.png?width=342&name=PDMC5_Detailansicht-png-1.png) ### PDMC5 FEATURES: - Integrated 5-pin M12 connector: Plug & Play - High degree of protection IP67 & IP69 - 4 lightning functions: steady, flashing, strobe (6-times), rotating light - Light patterns externally switchable     [see product page](https://www.auersignal.com/en/signaling-devices/light-beacons/pdmc5-led-multifunction-beacon-with-integrated-5-pin-m12-plug/)       ## Auer Signal's P Series - the Tough ![Series-P-sand-verkleinert](https://blog.auersignal.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Series-P-sand-verkleinert.png?width=311&height=183&name=Series-P-sand-verkleinert.png) The P Series from Auer Signal is designed for applications in extreme environments such as dust, ice, rain, or heat.

Depending on the installation, IP69 is maintained. With an open mounting method using e.g. a bracket an IP rating of IP69 can be reached. Using the provided flat gasket for surface mount such as tube mounting (accessory PMR) or bracket mount (accessory PVW) an IP rating of IP66 and IP67 is achievable.
