The IFM EBC070 is an eight-port PNP splitter box designed for centralized sensor and actuator connections in industrial automation. It features eight M8 ports and a 2 m PUR cable for compact machine installations. The robust PBT-GF20 housing provides IP65, IP67 and IP68 protection. Gold-plated contacts, clear LED indication and drag-chain suitability support reliable industrial operation.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The EBC070 provides eight M8 connection ports in a compact splitter-box arrangement. It allows multiple sensors and actuators to be connected through a single centralized wiring point. This reduces cable routing complexity and helps maintain a clean machine installation. Its compact design is particularly suitable for restricted installation areas.
The EBC070 uses PNP electrical design and supports 10...30 V DC operation. It provides reliable signal distribution for compatible industrial sensors and actuators. Each module can support up to 2 A, with a maximum total current of 6 A. Gold-plated contacts help maintain reliable electrical connections.
The integrated 2 m PUR cable is suitable for compact machinery where a shorter connection distance is preferred. Its halogen-free construction provides suitable characteristics for industrial automation installations. The cable is designed for drag-chain applications when specified conditions are maintained. This makes the EBC070 useful for moving machine sections.
The EBC070 uses a PBT-GF20 housing with nickel-plated brass components. IP65, IP67 and IP68 protection helps provide reliable resistance against dust, moisture and industrial exposure. Eight yellow LEDs indicate switching status and a green LED indicates operation. These features support easier machine commissioning and troubleshooting.
