The IFM EBC136 is a compact industrial splitter box designed for connecting multiple M8 sensors in automation applications. It provides ten M8 connection points with gold-plated contacts and visible LED status indication. The 5 m halogen-free PUR cable and robust PBT-GF20 housing support reliable industrial installation. Its IP65/IP67/IP68 protection makes it suitable for machine tools, coolants and demanding production environments.
Explore performance details, construction highlights, applications, and technical information in one clear overview.
The EBC136 provides ten M8 connection points in a compact splitter-box design. It is intended for applications where multiple sensors need to be connected to a central distribution point. The compact housing is suitable for installations with limited available space. M8 connections provide a practical interface for compatible industrial sensors.
The splitter box operates from a 10–30 V DC supply and provides PNP outputs. Each connection point supports up to 2 A, with a maximum total current load of 6 A. Ten yellow LEDs indicate switching status, while a green LED indicates operating availability. Gold-plated contacts support reliable electrical connection.
The EBC136 uses a PBT-GF20 housing with nickel-plated brass locking components for industrial durability. Its 5 m black halogen-free PUR cable supports flexible connection to automation control equipment. IP65, IP67 and IP68 protection helps protect against dust and water ingress. Drag-chain suitability and high bending-cycle capability support moving machine applications.
