The IFM EBC057 is an eight-port PNP splitter box designed for centralized sensor and actuator connections in industrial automation. It provides eight M8 ports and a 10 m PUR cable for extended installation flexibility. Its compact PBT-GF20 housing provides IP65, IP67 and IP68 protection. Multiple LED indicators provide clear switching and operating status.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The EBC057 provides eight M8 connection points for connecting multiple sensors and actuators. Centralized wiring helps reduce cable-routing complexity and keeps machine installations organized. The compact housing allows installation in areas where mounting space is restricted. It is suitable for a variety of factory automation and machine-building applications.
The EBC057 uses PNP electrical technology and operates from a 10...30 V DC supply. Each connection supports up to 2 A, with a maximum total current of 6 A. This configuration is suitable for industrial sensor and actuator systems. Gold-plated contacts provide stable electrical connectivity.
The 10 m PUR cable allows the splitter box to be installed at a suitable distance from the control equipment. The cable is designed for industrial environments and supports flexible machine applications. Drag-chain suitability allows it to be used with moving machinery under specified conditions. Maintaining the recommended bending radius is important for reliable service.
The PBT-GF20 housing provides a strong and compact enclosure for the connection system. IP65, IP67 and IP68 protection supports operation in demanding factory environments. Sixteen yellow LEDs provide individual switching-status indication and one green LED indicates operation. This makes fault identification and maintenance easier.
