The IFM EBC061 is a four-port NPN splitter box designed for centralized sensor and actuator connections. It provides four M8 ports and a 5 m PUR cable for flexible machine installation. The PBT-GF20 housing and nickel-plated brass components provide reliable mechanical protection. Gold-plated contacts, LED indication and drag-chain suitability make it suitable for industrial automation environments.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The EBC061 provides four M8 ports for connecting multiple compatible sensors and actuators. Centralized wiring helps reduce cable-routing complexity and provides a cleaner machine installation. The compact housing can be installed close to field devices for efficient connection management. It is suitable for automation machines with multiple sensing points.
The splitter box uses an NPN electrical design with a 10...30 V DC operating range. This makes it suitable for compatible industrial sensor and actuator circuits. Gold-plated contacts provide dependable electrical connection and signal transmission. The standardized M8 interfaces simplify connection with compatible field devices.
The integrated 5 m PUR cable provides flexibility when the splitter box needs to be positioned away from the main control equipment. PUR cable construction is suitable for industrial applications and dynamic installations. The cable supports drag-chain applications when the specified bending radius is maintained. This makes the product useful for moving machinery.
The EBC061 uses PBT-GF20 and nickel-plated brass materials for robust industrial construction. IP65, IP67 and IP68 protection helps provide resistance against dust and moisture. Eight yellow LEDs provide switching-status indication and a green LED indicates operation. These indicators make commissioning and troubleshooting easier.
