Gold-plated contacts and LED indication support dependable electrical performance.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The EBC024 provides eight M12 ports for connecting multiple sensors and actuators through a single centralized connection point. This helps simplify machine wiring and reduces unnecessary cable routing. The organized connection structure makes field-device installation easier to manage. It is suitable for automation systems with multiple connected devices.
The splitter box features a durable PA housing designed for demanding industrial environments. Its IP-rated construction helps protect the electrical connections against dust and water. The product is suitable for applications where oils and coolants may be present. This makes it a practical solution for machine tools and factory automation.
A 5 m PUR cable provides convenient reach for connecting the splitter box to the control system. The cable is halogen-free and suitable for dynamic applications. Drag-chain suitability allows the product to be installed in machinery where cable movement occurs. The specified bending radius should be maintained during installation.
The EBC024 includes 16 yellow LEDs for switching-status indication and one green LED for operation. This provides clear visual feedback from the connected circuits. LED indication can simplify commissioning and troubleshooting. Maintenance personnel can identify operating conditions quickly without complex testing.
