The IFM EBC026 is a 4-port splitter box designed for dependable sensor and actuator connectivity in industrial automation systems. It features M12 connections, a 10 m PUR cable and a robust PA housing. IP67/IP68 protection supports reliable operation in demanding industrial environments. The splitter box is also designed for applications exposed to oils, coolants, shock and vibration.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The EBC026 provides four M12 connection ports for centralized sensor and actuator wiring. This helps simplify the connection of field devices and reduces unnecessary cable routing. The compact configuration is suitable for machinery where space and organized wiring are important. It provides a practical interface between field devices and automation equipment.
The 10 m PUR cable provides additional flexibility when connecting the splitter box to control equipment. It is useful for machines where the field connection point is located away from the main control cabinet. The durable PUR construction is suitable for industrial cable routing. This provides greater freedom during machine installation.
The EBC026 is designed for applications where exposure to oils and coolants is expected. Its robust housing helps withstand demanding industrial conditions. The product is also designed with high shock and vibration resistance for machinery applications. These characteristics make it suitable for machine tools and production equipment.
The connection system is designed to provide reliable sealing even when installed manually without tools. A mechanical end stop helps prevent damage to the O-ring during connection. This supports long-term sealing performance and helps reduce connection-related maintenance. The IP67/IP68 protection further supports demanding industrial installation conditions.
